Putting aside the intrastate toad and bug for the time being, the cross state impact of what states due in our mobile intertweined, regulated and subsidized society is inescapable. What the states should be, in a more perfect union, are mere administrative regions.
The cross-national impact of what countries do with their internal policies isn't exactly insignificant either. Does that mean you're advocating global government?
Either way, just push for an amendment if this is what you want. But it makes no sense for this author to call judges "activist" for applying the law as written.
Have mercy!
Did you really type that?
Yikes! You mean , sorta like, France ?! Federalism is what made the US what it is today, IMO. More local control means more democracy, not less. A more narrow reading of the commerce clause is better than what youre suggesting, one would think.
