The Balance of Federal & State Taxation Power - [Freedom Papers Ep. 40]

Continuing the conversation with Federalist Paper No. 32, Morgan Zegers and Connor Clegg discuss state taxation power. Hamilton begins the paper by acknowledging the necessity for states to have the authority to tax citizens without federal infringement, except in the case of imports and exports.

"The Same Subject Continued: Concerning the General Power of Taxation" is one of the most cited of the Federalist Papers by the Supreme Court because it was integral in determining the dividing line between state and federal power.
