 WHETHER URUGUAY ROUND AGREEMENTS REQUIRED RATIFICATION AS A TREATY
In 1880, the House asserted that the negotiation of a commercial treaty that fixed duties on foreign imports would be an unconstitutional invasion of its prerogatives over the origination of revenues; in 1883, it demanded, in connection with a proposed commercial treaty with Mexico, to have a voice in treaties affecting revenue.
The use of these procedures, in which both political branches deploy sweeping constitutional powers, fully satisfies the Constitution's requirements; the Treaty Clause's provision for concurrence by two-thirds of the Senators present is not constitutionally mandatory for international agreements of this kind.
Again, in 1844, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, under Senator Rufus Choate, presented a report on the Prussian and Germanic Confederation Treaty, in which the Committee urged rejection of the treaty because "the legislature is the department of government by which commerce should be regulated and laws of revenue be passed.

 Hastert: After you, Bill
The Origination Clause of the Constitution states: “All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments as on other bills.”
There is also a significant procedural roadblock to any reform bill coming first out of the Senate, provided it adheres to President Bush’s initial principles of diverting payroll taxes to create personal savings accounts.
Because Frist could probably not get the 60 votes he would need to pass a bill that had already passed the House, it would be much easier to secure a deal within the Senate, one GOP leadership aide said.

 Thomas v. Network Solutions
Nor can they change the founding fathers' stated purpose underlying the Origination Clause, which was to guard against taxation without representation by prohibiting tax legislation from originating anywhere other than the House of Representatives.
United States, 202 U.S. Moreover, even if Congress were found to have made a mistake in ratifying a fee unnecessarily, the Supreme Court has established that it is for Congress, not the courts, to correct its mistake if it chooses to.
United States, 415 U.S. 336, 341 (1974) ("It would be such a sharp break with our traditions to conclude that Congress had bestowed on a federal agency the taxing power that we read [IOAA] narrowly as authorizing not a 'tax' but a 'fee.' A 'fee' connotes a 'benefit'.

 Narlikar's "Creation" of the Big Bang Universe Was a Mere Origination
Narlikar apparently overlooked my subjunctive conditional clause "if the principle of conservation of energy or mass-energy were to have [temporally and cosmologically unrestricted] validity." Clearly, I was merely calling attention to the incompatibility of the putatively unrestricted conservation principle with creation ex nihilo, and to its own logical compatibility with a bounded finite past.
But let us note that even an unrestricted conservation principle does not rule out a cosmological model featuring a first moment of time, that is, a model featuring an instant that has no temporal predecessor.
Narlikar proposes to banish t = 0 as a singularity at which the time axis is terminated by considering it "as a defect of the classical gravity theory" (1992, 365), arising from "an incomplete understanding of how gravity operates when matter is in an extremely dense state" (1988, 67; 1992, 370).
