I’m sure the court liberals were sympathetic to her plight but their leftist agenda requires them to support a perverted and vastly expanded notion of interstate commerce. If Raich had prevailed, that could have led to the Court striking down the entire Controlled Substances Act, which would have horrified liberals and so-called conservatives alike.

At least the prohibitionists of the early 20th century had the decency to pass a Constitutional amendment. Now it's prohibition by fiat, and all of the government meddling and jack-booted enforcement that goes along with it.

What's even sadder is the defenders of such policy on supposedly liberty-friendly venues as FR.
