Does McDonalds grow all their food ingredients in the same one place or do they buy from all around the nation and world? Does McDonalds manufacture all of the equipment they use in their restaurants and are all the parts of that equipment manufactured in the same one state or do they buy them from all around the nation and world? Are all the raw materials used build the restaurants made in the same one state or do they buy it from different states and all around the world?
That's interstate and international commerce.
The Commerce Clause gives the government the power to regulate business. No business is exclusive to one area. Everything comes from other places now so the Commerce Clause applies to pretty much every business in America.
You don't have to like that the government has a constitutional right to regulate business but then you can't turn around and claim you're a patriotic American who loves the constitution.
It doesn't say "regulate business", so you're wrong.
It says "regulate commerce among the several states."
McDonald's isn't a state.
Commerce is business.
I can't believe you're that obtuse.
The Commerce Clause says government can regulate interstate and international business. Commerce is business.
McDonanld's conducts commerce, it's a business. They offer a service and goods for money.
For you who don't know the real meaning of the words in the english language here's what the dictionary says Commerce means:
commerce
noun
1.
an interchange of goods or commodities, especially on a largescale between different countries (foreign commerce) orbetween different parts of the same country (domesticcommerce) trade; business.
Stop being such an obtuse person.
The government most certainly regulate business because of the Commerce Clause. No amount of your stupid claims will reverse that. What you think and believe means absolutely nothing to our government. What means something is the constitution and how our courts rule on cases which create case law.
You don't have to like it but it only shows how you hate our constitution and you're not a patriotic American.
