The US Constitution, the Magna Carta, and the civil aspects of God’s law as handed to Moses all attempted to minimize the negative aspects of government by limiting in some manner. Without limits all government reverts to it’s marader roots. Chief Justice Roberts voted in favor of gangster rule with his rejection of the 10th Amendment.

The Constitution actually expanded the power of government, or rather further centralized it. Nevertheless, following your line of thought both it and Magna Carta were smaller units of government limiting a bigger one. Such power sharing and limiting goes on amongst gangsters. Moreso, probably, because it is harder for them to monopolize force, living as they do not only in competition with rival gangs but also in the shadow of government.

Roberts’ decision was the opposite of gangsterism, which would be more akin to him selling his vote to some private concern. It was a power grab for the centralist of central government, and as such was pure statism.
