You didn’t answer my question. You just kind of yelled into the void. How Much privacy does a person deserve?

45

If she agrees to it how is it an illegal search. She chooses…

46

I just stated it to you:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers , and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated,

47

That’s an emanation. Whatever happened to originalists? Where have all you gone?

48

That’s not it…keep looking

49

Time for that presedant to be over turned.

Taxes are NOT voluntary. See what happens if you refuse to do your tax forms and turn them in. As such, they should fall under the right to be secure since the government demands the information or you go to jail.

50

What has changed that would justify overturning this case?

51

Privacy isn’t a “deserve”, it’s a RIGHT under the Constitution.

52

No it isnt

53

Is tax information the property of the person or corporation submitting the information?

54

all the liar in the white house had to do was honor his own word.

no integrity.

55

That’s strange, I could have sworn we limit rights in this country.

56

You are correct.

Privacy is an implied right, not an express right.

Which is why I can’t get down with the strict Constructionist interpretation of the Constitution.

57

Snows argument is the exact same for abortion…

Same for symrna…which is the amusing part

58

Indeed the word never appears in the entire document. However as you said, it is implied, and quite strongly. Rights not listed are reserved to the people and the states as we know, leaving too much wiggle room in my opinion, I always found that language a little disconcerting. If to the states, that gives them great authority, but if to the people, as in individually OR collectively, it is they who are in charge of this plethora of rights that couldn’t possibly all be listed. It can be a tough question, is it the people, the states or both and why? Perhaps if they offered some broad categories of unlisted rights that surely exist and delineated which categories might belong to states and which to individuals it would eliminate a lot of arguments and SCOTUS court cases.

Or maybe I’m just rambling in a stream of consciousness line of BS lol.

59

Yes, there is a right to privacy. No it is not in the Constitution.

It is an ephor construct.

60

And very strongly implied. “Persons” and “effects” particularly.

61

I like the 2004-conservative-style lib stance in this thread.
