Drugs are serious enough that I don’t believe states rights can overcome it. Similar to slavery or anything that’s national. I’d like to see it as an amendment matter though.

There’s a reason the most liberal possible places both use pot and want it legal. They go hand in hand, and the damage done is not worth it.

IOW, you support fedgov in its use of the Commerce Clause to trample the Tenth Amendment. Looks like you and Nancy Pelosi have a similar expansive view on the power of Congress to regulate interstate commerce:

"The Constitution gives Congress broad power to regulate activities that have an effect on interstate commerce," she notes in a news release. "Congress has used this authority to regulate many aspects of American life, from labor relations to education to health care to agricultural production. Since virtually every aspect of the heath care system has an effect on interstate commerce, the power of Congress to regulate health care is essentially unlimited."
