-- Not to enforce federal laws regulating their uses. - Thus. -- There is no provision in the Constitution to allow the Federal Government to exercise authority over drug usage or medical procedures, --- is a true statement.
"traditional state's authority" according to Michael Greve, the John G. Searle Scholar and director of the Federalism Project at the American Enterprise Institute, "doesn't answer the federalism question — ever." Just because Congress didn't regulate an area in the past, "doesn't mean they couldn't ever do it. The real question," he says, "is does Congress have the authority, yes or no, under the Commerce Clause." It has long been clear that medical practice impacts interstate commerce and therefore may be regulated by the federal government (as the Controlled Substances Act already does in part)
Why do you WANT to give the feds these powers over doctors & drugs?
Its bad enough that we give our states far too much power over these types of personal decisions, imo.
Can you explain your position?
