"The inclusion from all of this...", I think you meant "The conclusion to be drawn from this...".
And while I do think the proposed law is shockingly broad and overreaching; I find your grasp of american jurisprudence to be lacking in several important respects.
- sdp 16y agoWhich important respects?
- kgo 16y agoFor one, at least since the New Deal, the strict constructionist interpretation of enumerated powers doesn't hold water. The federal government has a pretty broad interpretation of 'interstate commerce' which supersedes the list of 'enumerated powers' Since the internet crosses state lines, it's interstate commerce. For example, it the government can't constitutionally control communications, the FCC is illegal. And yet it hasn't been shut down by the Supreme Court or Congress.
- aswanson 16y agoPerhaps it should be.
- aswanson 16y agoMine is lacking further still. Can you expand upon the specific errors made in his reasoning, if you would?
