"how far can this principle be justly extended?"

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Congress and it's depts have gone beyond providing rights protection market fairness. They have taken over the decision making process of all players in many instances. That is socialism, not Freedom. The original intent was that the government not be involved in commerce itself, only involved in protecting rights and providing fairness.

That's what I was getting at, specifically, where the line should be drawn.
