No interstate commerce, no federal jurisdiction.

The supremes threw that out back in the 30s. They won't win on that one.

The Supremes, especially in the 1930s in upholding much of Roosvelt's Raw Deal, did stretch the interstate commerce clause as much as they did in finding the right to privacy in the first amendment.

But they did not find that congress can regulate anything and everything just because they want to.
