Law professor Richard Epstein here gives a lengthy analysis of Obamacare and the Commerce Clause. He concludes that if the justices hold to anything remotely like the original understanding of “regulate commerce among the states” then it’s “a piece of cake” to declare Obamacare unconstitutional. He also assails two of the villains I identified in my Shaftesbury talk back in October — the decision to uphold the Agricultural Adjustment Act (Wickard v. Filburn) and the decision allowing labor relations to be nationalized (Jones & Laughlin Steel).
