To veto acts passed by congress :)
The popular answer is three, but these people forget the first branch of government named "We the People" and the statements by the constitutional authors that "the people" act in the checks and balances system - so the correct answer is 4 (see other questions about check and balances system).
Checks and Balances refers to the constitutional right for each branch of government to check on each other in order that there will not be any abuse of power. The three branches of the U.S. government is the Executive (President), Legislative (House of Representatives and the Senate), and the Judicial (U.S. Supreme Court).

Checks and balances work by taxes and government preatty much doing the math of your money for you.
it doesn't we have a system of checks and balances where on branch of government can check one another for signs of them using to much power because of our limited government but the supreme court has the right to impeach the president and he has no more power then if that's what you were talking about
Checks and balances - the executive branch can check the power of the legislature though the veto. The legislature can check the power of the president through overriding the veto.

The Constitution does. The government makes laws and enforces them but the constitution actually protects individual's rights. The US is a constitutional federated republic. The government is kept in check by the constitution. Without the checks and balances that the constitution provides, the government could take away all rights of the people, controlling all they say and do. A government without checks and balances usually ends in dictatorship.
