It's settled law, and new supreme court justices are not going to overturn it.

You seem to not understand the difference between legislative and judicial powers.

"You seem to not understand the difference between legislative and judicial powers."

You don't seem to understand reality. You're living in fantasy land. In what world, did the judiciary treat the constitution the way you think it should have?

In any event, I think that SCOTUS made it's case that there was a valid interstate reason behind a federal minimum wage law.

It still comes back to whining about enumerated powers will accomplish nothing, nada, zilch, zero. Because even if you managed to pack the court with ultra conservative candidates, they still wouldn't touch the precedents that have been made unless there was a comprehensive plan to restore enumerated powers that had made it through the legislature.

We can't even get a conservative on the GOP ticket. And you want to overturn over 100 years of precedents, with an ultra strict interpretation of the 10th that ignores the commerce clause.

I'm focused on solutions that have a chance. We're not going to be able to overturn the minimum wage. But we could restore American industry by restoring the import tariffs that our founding fathers put in place. And one way to do that is attach it to the minimum wage law. Bring back American industry and reduce immigration and demand for labor will raise wages making the minimum wage law moot.
