I'm not a constitutional scholar by any means and I'm not selling a 200 year old argument. The crux of the article in question is about how the Judicial system since the time of Roosevelt has progressively perverted the context and intent of the constitution to expand the powers of federal government to achieve a vision of egalitarianism and socialism.

"The crux of the article in question is about how the Judicial system since the time of Roosevelt has progressively perverted the context and intent of the constitution to expand the powers of federal government to achieve a vision of egalitarianism and socialism."
The article said:
"Where does the federal government get the power to legislate in this area? The answer is: Nowhere."
And the author of the article is wrong. The power resides in Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, as indicated in my very first post on this thread.
