A guy I work with made some very ignorant comments about how US government works. He didnt know that the supreme court justices were appointed by the president and confirmed by the senate. He also didnt put enough thought into how money is spent at the federal level. Now this guy is a highly skilled employee and is actually very intelligent.
A quick review.
Congress (house of reps, legislative branch) makes laws, taxes laws too and the Senate (judicial branch) votes on this and then on to the prez, and the prez can veto the legislation, or approve it. The prez picks the supreme court justices and the Senate votes them up or down, helps prevent a dictatorship. The president cannot spend one dime of taxpayer money unless congress approves of it first. The president can put US troops in harms way up until war is declared and/or a 90 war powers act happens. (this helps prevent another Vietnam) and the congress approved of the Iraq overthrow. Any thing in error here? Am I right?
