Making as work this morning, are ye?
I didn’t know the name of the case, but my memory was refreshed when I looked it up:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wickard_v._Filburn
“Wickard v. Filburn, 317 U.S. 111 (1942), was a United States Supreme Court decision that dramatically increased the regulatory power of the federal government. It remains as one of the most important and far-reaching cases concerning the New Deal, and set a precedent for an expansive reading of the United States Constitution’s Commerce Clause for decades to come...
“The Court decided that Filburn’s wheat-growing activities reduced the amount of wheat he would buy for animal feed on the open market, which is traded nationally (interstate), and is therefore within the scope of the Commerce Clause...”
That’s some of the convoluted pseudo-justifications made in U. S. Supreme Court history.
