Ok, ok...... I’m old you know. Half of what I know is obsolete and no longer matters.

Constitution ‘reflected fundamental flaw
of this country that continues to this day’

“Fundamentally Transforming the United States of America”

Thomas Sowell
July 4th

[More than a hundred years ago, so-called “Progressives” began a campaign to undermine the Constitution’s strict limitations on government, which stood in the way of self-anointed political crusaders imposing their grand schemes on all the rest of us. That effort to discredit the Constitution continues to this day, and the arguments haven’t really changed much in a hundred years.

The cover story in the July 4th issue of Time magazine is a classic example
of this arrogance. It asks of the Constitution: “Does it still matter?”

]

evidently not, else we’d be up in arms, led by the US Congress..

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz..

Don't count too heavily on SCOTUS. This is their current view on the extent of the New Deal Commerce Clause:

...the authority to enact laws necessary and proper for the regulation of interstate commerce is not limited to laws governing intrastate activities that substantially affect interstate commerce. Where necessary to make a regulation of interstate commerce effective, Congress may regulate even those intrastate activities that do not themselves substantially affect interstate commerce.

J. Scalia, concurring in Gonzales v Raich
