Final answer:
The statement that a statute of limitations limits the amount of damages is false. It actually provides a timeframe for filing claims, not limiting damages. Similarly, the Necessary and Proper Clause does not limit, but enables the expansion of, federal powers, making the claim that it limits power also false.
Step-by-step explanation:
A statute of limitations pertains to the legal time limit within which a party may initiate legal proceedings or file a claim arising from a dispute, breach of contract, or other causes of action. It does not limit the amount of damages that the nonbreaching party can obtain for a breach. Therefore, the statement that a statute of limitations limits the amount of damages is false.
The Necessary and Proper Clause often called the elastic clause, actually enables Congress to make laws required for the exercise of its other powers established by the Constitution. Hence, it has not had the effect of limiting the power of the national government, but rather, it has allowed the national government to expand its powers. Thus, the assertion that the Necessary and Proper Clause limits national government power is false.
