problems of the AOC were trade barriers and trade wars, taking place causing commerce in America to come to a stand still.
the delegates to the convention granted the federal government the power to regulate interstate commerce [among the states]. and to end these barriers and wars.
several of the states have created these barriers to Tesla, to protect the car dealerships of their states, which they are not supposed to do, we are supposed to have free trade accross the states.
We do not have free trade across the states already.
Try to sell AR-15 mags in NY or a switchblade made in Oregon in California. States have powers to regulate trade unless congress says otherwise, and congress doesn't have to say otherwise. You are mistaking a power with a duty. Congress has a power, not a duty to regulate interstate commerce. If a car maker in Arizona makes a car that doesn't meet CA emissions and smog standards that car cannot be registered in CA, should congress end that too?
