| Senator Murphy, from where does the federal government gain the authority to regulate private sales? They are not commerce, and no other part of the Constitution delegates that power. |

Where do they get the power?
The Commerce Clause, the same as they get the power to regulate grain grown on your own land for your own personal use.
Yeah, I know, it's totally wrong, but it's the Supreme Court, so they're always right no matter how obviously wrong they are.

TO REMEMBER |
| Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.... We've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of government himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price. — Ronald Reagan |
