You are selliing us short: The constitution enumerates federal powers. Anything it is mute on is NOT a priori fair game for federal law.

Unenumerated rights belong to states and individuals.

Hence my comment about not unconstitutionally violating states' rights. But you're quite right, and I could have been more clear on that point.
