time for an Originalist lawsuit to overturn the New Deal era federal power expansionists? Federalist Alexander Hamilton and framers of the Constitution did not write the commerce clause with the meaning that Congress could prohibit intrastate economic activity, especially agriculture.
Wickard v. Filburn 1942 the New Deal Sup. Ct. justices allowed Congress to limit how much a farmer could grow wheat for his family’s own personal use!
