    Next CFM will be demanding that Congress members actually personally fight wars alone.

    In the real world, Congress makes the laws, and the Executive branch takes care of actually enforcing them.

    No, the Constitution you hate has specific provisions in it related to the military. Nothing about collecting taxes says "IRS".

    They have all the authority they need to create something like the IRS. NOTHING specifies that they themselves have to go out and collect the taxes.

    None. Just limits. The military is created, hired, and maintained by Congress. Just like the IRS. In both cases, the executive branch executes the law using these entities created by Congress.

    Difference is the Constitution specifically mentions the military yet says nothing about the IRS as an entity.

    Nothing specified they can create the IRS.

    If you read the words in Article I, Section 8, it specifically says CONGRESS shall lay and collect taxes. It doesn't say Congress can pass it along to someone else.
