>”Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
1824? Come on man. It’s all ruled by decree, personal opinion and candy-dreams.
Wickard stuck the fork in what was once the Republic. Now? Laws are re-written by SCoTUS and plain verbiage/English it ignored or suggested it’s *not* REALLY what is written.
Hell, Congress could have done its JOB and nixed the option from the Courts from even looking at O’Care, RvW, etc.; but that would mean THEM coming under scrutiny and not being able to use the ‘Elect me and I’ll do blah blah’.
Thanks for the insights ! /sarc
