I don't like it. The the 20th-Century Fabian-Socialist Marxists have used "Incorporation Doctrine" without constitutional-based explanation, to overturn Slaughterhouse and expand federal power.

The response at this point is state nullification of unconstitutional federal acts and decisions (possibly followed by the long shot of a successful Article V Convention of States that somehow forces the unconstitutional portion of the federal government (my estimate=about 80%) to shut down - not likely to happen).

The problem is the totalitarian federal government which has completely loosed from the Constitution. The solution to restore freedom and limited government is restoration of the Constitution. The states are the battleground for the preservation of the Constitution IMO.

The judicially-activist (i.e. in clear defiance of the language and legislative intent of the 14th Amendment) Slaughterhouse cases laid the groundwork, in that they were inevitably overturned, thus creating an opening for constitutional interpretation that erred as far in the other direction.
