For the life of me I can't find "save me money" or "stabilize food prices" as an enumerated power of Congress anywhere in Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution.
Can you point them out to me? I must have an outdated copy.
Thanks in advance for all your assistance.

The feds actually made an effort with some things to maintain at least a veneer of State control. And while I agree it is not authorized as such, it is quite legal as a State and county activity.
But, as it were, it is just the tip of the iceberg, compared to the vast, albeit unconstitutional, federal involvement in agriculture and agribusiness. Which I might add, is so huge, that food stamps are piddly indeed. The scale of American agribusiness is paralleled only by our military industrial complex. Both of which are *everywhere* in the US. Truly amazing.
The principles of what I said, however, still apply at the State and county level, in that most of the States have an overabundance of food which puts a strain on their resources as well.
