This is an amazing case on the limitation of government power.
To an outsider, the federal government looks de facto unlimited, the constitution isn't followed at all. If this case rules in favour that will just cement that; almost any activity the government is making you do or not do affects the economy so will be allowable under that clause. If not there we will see a lot of similar cases challenging government's power to regulate in many aspects of society.
