[QUOTE="NotreDame, post: 74001282, member: 212558"] The word “commerce” in the Constitution does not have any meaning that would include the act of hiring someone to work. There is no court opinion in existence having ever taking such an expansive view. Your view would have shocked the framers to the point of revolting, as your view would undoubtedly mean regulation of purely interstate activity, having no relation or impact on interstate commerce, by virtue of the fact they hired people to work. That view you espoused is untenable Constitutionally. The threshold question is whether Bernie’s proposal constitutes as regulating commerce. If it doesn’t, then an entity acting “well beyond a local scale” doesn’t matter. Bernie’s proposal isn’t regulating commerce. [/QUOTE]
