Actually, the nullification crisis was over powers actually delegated to the federal. As in the case here.

There hasn’t been a nullification crisis over powers not delegated to the federal but reserved to the States or the people. Things like regulation of commerce within States or saying things that affect interstate commerce but which are not actually interstate commerce may be regulated. There really needs to be a LOT of that sort of nullification!

Regulate’ as per the Commerce Clause, follows the 2nd: to make regular. Federalism has been turned on its head w/ the *intentional* misapplication and misreading of the Constitution; *KNOWING*, and easily shown, to place restrictions upon GOVT, not We the People

But, yes, there should be a LOT of State vs. Fed in this area, but govt being govt, washes its own back.
