“Wickard v Filburn needs a review.”


Amen to that - that single case has allowed for the unfettered expansion of the federal government when there is even the slightest impact, or even no discernible impact, on interstate commerce. For those not familiar, this case was about a farmer who was prohibited from growing food on his own farm to feed his own family, because that would mean that he and his family would buy less food in the marketplace and that would affect interstate commerce (and the whole thing was based on federal intervention to stabilize and raise food prices during the Depression, so that farmers could stay in business).

Yeah, repeal that bitch!
