Still seems to me that calling the growing of your own crop to feed your own animals "commerce between the States" is an absurd stretch already...undermining my confidence in the ability of the Supreme Court to follow the US Constitution.

I am hoping that some small glimmer of confidence might be restored soon.

I agree that the wheat case ruling was absurd, but at least it was prohibiting the farmer from growing wheat, not necessarily forcing him to buy the wheat. Could the farmer, instead have grown corn to feed his chickens, which would be more reasonable anyway?

I’ve never really heard of feeding wheat to chickens, but then I’ve never raised any chickens, either.
