Yes it does. The power is of the harmonizing class. It is to be used to bring uniformity to the buying and selling of goods across state borders, in order to avoid the evils of myriad differences in state law -- and irregular, unjust taxes.

The last 120 years or so of constitutional law disagree with you, since at least US v. E.C. Knight in 1887. If you would like to discuss what the law should be, I am game - up until this point, I have been discussing what the law is.
