One of the fundamental questions economists ask about the U.S. Economy is, "For whom should producers make goods?"
This is evident in the fact that the United States economy, just like many of the capitalist economies around the world, is concerned majorly about four primary economic questions, which are:
1. what goods and services and how much of each to produce?
2. how to produce?
3. for whom to produce?
4. who owns and controls the factors of production?
Enumerated powers are specifically listed in the constitution. Implied powers are not stated specifically but are assumed by the exercise of the enumerated powers.
