“Article 1 Section 8: “To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;”

Oh dear, no I’m going to have to refer you to another set of documents called The Federalist Papers so you can learn what was intended by that one. Guess what, it wasn’t what you think it was.

Isn’t learning about the Constitution fun?

I agree this is fun. What do you think of the 100 patients who died due to sulfanilamide medication poising? Those jerks brought about the FDA. The owner of the company, when pressed to admit some measure of culpability, infamously answered, You should read up on the Elixir sulfanilamide disaster. This is what the owner of S.E. Massengill Company had to say: “We have been supplying a legitimate professional demand and not once could have foreseen the unlooked-for results. I do not feel that there was any responsibility on our part.”

Wow, so 100 dead people overrides the Constitution? Guess we better ban guns too.

I’m familiar with it and it was awful. I believe they paid out substantial monies in compensation. And there was already plenty of law on the books to deal with it.
