becoming a citizen. Section 9 does not deal with people walking
across the border, it was intended for the slave trade but in keeping
with Orginal meaning of words trumps what the authors intended, it
still does not apply to people who walk across the border, that is
traveling not importing, this might apply to someone transporting
people across the border in to a state along the border but not to
someone walking across, you don't import yourself plus the importing
would need to be as a service for a residence of this country ( say
an employer) not for the person being imported. It would appear
migration goes with the word imported, that is after being imported,
then moved to another state or more than one other state. It appears
that migration goes with importation because of the tax but migration
appears to be going from one state to the other not from another
country into a state otherwise prior to 1808 why would Congress not
have the authority to place a tax on someone walking across the
border. If Congress had the authority over imigration after 1808 why
didn,t the constitution specify immigration in the constitution as it
did specify naturalzation, why wasn't the authority of immigration in
section 8 alone with the naturalization
clause?
Personally I think Lysander Spooner was wrong this had to do
with importing slaves and moving slaves into free states but if we
are to not go by what they intended but what the words meant at the
time and in the context of the sentence then it can mean other people
other than slaves but it is a bit of a stretch to say the word
migration gives the federal government authority over immigration,
that is walking from another country into a state when taking into
the whole context of the sentence and the fact that it does not
specify immigration, nautralzation, immigration and emigration were
common words at the time but it failed to specify immigration when it
had earler specified naturalzation.--- In
