And this tips the balance to the Feds big time, if upheld.

What power gets tipped? What has the government previously tried to do, and been denied, that was like this?

We live in a society where the federal government can draft people against their will to go fight and die in a foreign country, if the government votes for that war.

How can you think we can order our citizens to die for their country, but that purchasing healthcare is some bridge too far?

Unless, of course, you’re against the constitutionality of the draft, too.
