I love Mark’s show, but I think an easier, less risky approach is to reign in the definition of “interstate trade”. That would lop off the long arm of Washington in a hurry.

I’m not a lawyer, so I am not familiar with all the arguments or approaches, but I’m willing to learn. Something about the federal leviathan must be done, for the sake of our children.

Agree.

Repeal the 17th and strike the commerce clause completely. Early in our history the commerce clause may have been beneficial but today it's only use is to expand the reach of government. There is nothing about interstate commerce that we need the feds to regulate. The states and the free market will take care of that just fine.
