The founders clearly intended that Congress take the lead in setting priorities and determining policies but today, Presidents h
ave plans for Social Security, welfare programs, taxes, inflation, and public education, and often act first before consulting Congress. Select one:
True
False
The answer to the question is false because according to the Federal Constitution. The Congress must always be consulted or the Congress must pass legislation for the President to act on their proposed programs such as the programs that have been stated in the question. While the President is still the most powerful of the people in the branches of the government because he can veto bills and issue executive orders, Congress exists as well as the Court of Justice to make sure that power does not get abused. Each and every branch of the government, the executive, legislative, and the judiciary all keep each other in check so that no one goes beyond their power and to maintain democracy. However, the kind of President stated in the question may exist if they have the confidence of the majority of the Congress because they basically control the Congress by that point and while that may be advantageous in passing necessary laws quickly, that is dangerous because there can be an abuse of powers.
