[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] "But when you do not agree with the interpretation it's stupid and wrong." How can I disagree with it, but not think it's wrong and stupid? [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] And here's my argument against that interpretation of "commerce": if that were the meaning of that clause, then congress could effectively prevent anyone from leaving their state for any reason. Or the country, for that matter. Does it make any sense for congress to have such a power? Is there any conceivable reason for congress to have this power? Could this not easily lead to power being used in a manner similar to Fidel Castro and other communist countries forcibly preventing their people from leaving? I submit that said interpretation of the term "commerce" is incorrect in this context. I have a right to the persuit of happiness. What if that requires my leaving the country? This interpertation would seem to cause a contradiction. Thus I disagree with many of the judicial interpretations of the constitution. Maybe we should have a jury of, say, fifty to make these interpretations, instead of one man. And I still disagree with the judge's decision to declare Microsoft a monopoly, for the reasons I and Elim have already stated. [/QB][/QUOTE]
