Where does the Constitution delegate to fedgov the power to impose a nationwide prohibition on marijuana, in your opinion?

Do you think the Constitution authorizes fedgov to fight a national war on rape, murder, and burglary?

The FedGov has the power to oversee the manufacture and distribution of any and all potentially toxic substances, including drugs - legal and illegal. My point about the other “crimes” was about debunking the notion that simple because there are people out there engaging in certain behaviors (criminal or otherwise) which are harmful does not mean that society should or wants to stop enforcing prohibitions against those crimes/behaviors. Is this really that difficult to figure out?
