After all, there’s no interstate commerce involved here.

Exactly. You making everything in your house means you aren't buying crap from interstate companies, and therefore you are affecting that interstate commerce. Duh.

Well it should be “duh,” but the 1942 case of Wickard v. Filburn says otherwise. Perhaps this case is one of those that will lead to the overturning of that Constitutional abomination, something that I have been hoping and praying for since I learned about it in the mid-80s. Wickard is the basis for allowing ANYTHING to be regulated by the feds, something clearly never intended by the Founders.
