The use of the Commerce Clause has been reversed from its original intent.

The original intent was to prevent states from enacting barriers to trade between the states.

Now the clause is used to justify the federal government creating barriers to trade between the states. The ATF is a classic example of that, only allowing guns to be sold across state lines by federally licensed dealers.
