10th Amendment

"10th amendment. Tenth Amendment. an amendment to the U.S. constitution, ratified in 1791 as part of the Bill of Rights, guaranteeing to the states and the people those rights that are not delegated to the federal government by the Constitution."

In this video, Eugene Hickok argues how the difference in National and State government is very powerful and raises the issue and significance of limited government. The word "expressly" also becomes a very important factor. If the 10th amendment said the government has to have "expressed" powers in the constitution  to do a specific thing and if it does not have it resides with the states.
