My PoliSci professor covered this within a few weeks of starting our class. It’s not a hard concept to grasp, and can be covered in half an hour. Things like this prove to me that Obama never got within 10 feet of a class that had anything to do with American government/history.
Hello Mr. Moseley. Thank you for providing more evidence that lawless Constitution expert Obama doesnt do his homework.
Also, unless you can show otherwise, please note that the Equal Pay Act of 1963, and the FDR-era Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 which it amended, are based on constitutionally nonexistent federal government powers, both acts likely made to win the support of misguided voters for Constitution-ignoring Democrats during the FDR and Kennedy Administrations.
More specifically, regardless what FDRs activist justices wanted everybody to believe about Congresss Commerce Clause powers when they wrongly decided Wickard v. Filburn in Congresss favor in 1942, FDRs justices wrongly ignored that the Supreme Court had previously clarified that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution the specific power to regulate intrastate commerce.
State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]. Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
And since pay issues for intrastate workers are reasonably an aspect of intrastate commerce, both the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Equal Pay Act are based on state powers which the corrupt feds stole from the sleeping states imo.
He’s always been able to count on the Partisan Media Shills to cover up his demagogueries.
