"and don't think the framers of the Constitution and BOR believed in power without responsibility."

Is that right? Hmmmmm.

So, if Congress has the power to regulate "commerce among the several states", then they're responsible for commerce? Well, if we're going to hold them responsible, wouldn't the result of that encourage Congess to take on an even greater role?

Are you saying that Congress should have the resonsibility to regulate commerce "among the several states"? Wow. I didn't realize you were such a centrist!

Would you consider Congress to be remiss if we didn't have standard weights and measures, interstate transportation systems, restrictions on state imposed trade barriers?
