Not answering is your option. But let me recap thus far. I told you/others that the Constitution allows the Federal government to regulate interstate commerce, and also grants or allows the states what is known as “police powers.” Thus providing the legal basis for minimum wages.
You basically said, “does not either!”, and I asked you for an explanation. You have responded with “The Federalist Papers”, which is not statutory law. They are letters, and of importance in determining “intent”, but they are not per se a part of the law.
I suspect like one of your buds here, you are simply flailing about and waving your hands in the air and throwing out whatevah, rather than coming to grips with the rather sensible basis for a livable minimum wage law. This is simply an act of cognitive dissonance on your part, and you would be a happier person if you just admitted you have been wrong.
Just because the government can do something, doesn’t mean that it should.
