Thanks for making these!

the coinage clause discussion is disappointing. I don't think that the founding fathers intended to allow for a central bank to take over and make fiat currency. What we know as the dollar in the USA is not legal tender but was a violation of the constitution by both congress and president Nixon who severed the Dollar from gold. You cannot coin paper, that's not how it works. In later portions of the constitution you also have a clear prohibition on the states to accept anything other than gold or silver as a payment for debts.

Thank you.

This video is disappointing. The Senator mentions nothing about the eradication of patent rights for inventors as a result of the America Invents Act of 2011. Go to my channel and watch a speech I gave to the US Patent Office describing this very thing.

What’s your channel?

You bastards, you just had to lump the Copyright Clause in with other clauses. Couldn't have been bothered to make a standalone video about the clause that has guge effects for the day-to-day use of the average Internet user.
I appreciate the information you gave on intellectual property, but I personally think that the Copyright Clause is important enough to warrant its own video.
