The __________ in the Constitution gives Congress the flexibility to make all “necessary and proper” laws.

History

The ELASTIC clause is another name for the NECESSARY AND PROPER clause.

The "elastic" character of the "necessary and proper" clause is that it grants Congress  implied powers beyond the specifically stated ones in the Constitution..  After enumerating a number of the powers of Congress, including borrowing money, coining money, regulating commerce, etc, Section 8 of Article I of the Constitution closes by saying Congress shall have power "to make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."  That's a quite broad and "elastic" statement, which goes beyond specifically delegated powers and gives Congress additional implied powers.  

An example of the implementation of such implied powers in the Constitution occurred when Alexander Hamilton, as our nation's first Secretary of the Treasury, argued in favor of establishing a national bank.  Hamilton believed that anything that is not strictly forbidden in the Constitution is allowable.  A national bank was not strictly listed as something Congress could establish, but there was nothing in the Constitution to prohibit it.  And the "necessary and proper" clause gave leeway to create it, by the implied powers given to Congress.

Escribir un titulo para el dibujo seguido de un parrafo que tenga relacion con el dibujo para el titulo no vale ponerle Revoluci
vodomira [7]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Desafortunadamente, se te olvido incluir el dibujo.

¿Dónde está? Si no anexas el dibujo, ¿cómo sabemos de lo que trata?

Sin embargo, con la idea de ayudarte, hicimos una profunda investigación y encontramos el dibujo que se te olvidó anexar.

El título que yo le pondría al dibujo sería el siguiente:

"La libertad de elegir es el mayor valor de la democracia."

Y le pondría ese título porque en el dibujo podemos ver una montaña hecha con puros rostros de personas. Hasta arriba, en la punta de la montaña, aparecer el edificio de gobierno en Buenos Aires, Argentina.

En ese edificio se ve como un pie le está dando una patada al monarca para sacarlo de la casa de gobierno.

Junto al dibujo aparece una frase que dice "Quiero más una libertad peligrosa que una servid*mbre tranquila."

Y es que la verdad, no hay mayor libertad que la capacidad de elegir, aunque nos equivoquemos algunas veces. La libertad nos hace humanos.

Y aunque esta libertad también tenga sus riesgos, siempre será mejor que permanecer atados ante las cadenas de la monarquía, la dictadura o el autoritarismo.
