Oh, by all means. Let's give preference to the opinion of a 21st century economist over a Founding Father and Chief Justice to the U.S. Supreme Court when it comes to defining the meaning of the word "to regulate" in the Commerce Clause.

Chief Justice, yes. Where do you guys keep coming up with "Founding Father"? Can you point to where he debated ANYTHING in one of the Convetions? He wasn't even a Representitive until 1799.

Redefining and Expanding the Courts role beyond it's designed limits while the ink on the Constitution was still drying is hardly a noteworthy accomplishment.
