Sorry, I don't have time for that.

I will admit I do not know all there is to know about the Constitution and maybe Article 3 is not the correct one to quote, but I heard that particular section mentioned many times.

If knowing law is important to you, then why do you not accept the word of most of the Congressmen who said that this was Constitutional? A whole lot of them have been lawyers.

The architects of the New Deal claimed their legislation was constitutional. That didn't make it so. I am curious however under what enumerated power the Congress passed this. It doesn't sound like a commerce issue or a spending issue.
