That’s the decision I was trying to remember. Thomas’s dissent was in accord with the constitution. The majority ruling was not. Wickard v. Filburn should be overturned. There is no way that growing crops on your own land for your own use falls into interstate commerce. The Commerce Clause is used as a pretext for the fed to be involved in virtually anything.
