The scariest thing about Wickard v Filburn was that it was a UNANIMOUS decision.Charles L. Cotton wrote: ↑Sun Nov 18, 2018 9:55 pm A SCOTUS case from the Roosevelt era upheld a conviction of a farmer for growing wheat to feed his family and violating federal wage and price control laws. The Court held that the Commerce Clause was triggered even though the farmer's wheat had not traveled in interstate commerce. Had he not grown his own wheat he would have had to buy food. This impacted interstate commerce.
I know, the case sucked!
