That is a very thoughtful post, and I think you are exactly right. Now that there is pushback on the Obamacare plan based on the edge of the commerce clause, the national government is invoking national security to expand its powers into all sorts of areas that historically had nothing to do with that aspect of governmental authority.

I think we’ll see a lot more of that this year.
