Since you asked me (and I answered) a Constitutional question
I thought it would be good to ask you a former law enforcement officer a Constitutional question.
In 1919 the Federal Government needed to pass a Constitutional Ammendment (the 18th) to have the power to prohibit the "manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors"
in other words they needed a Constitutional ammendment to control this substance.
This was later repealed by the 21st ammendment in 1933.
So where does the Federal Government now get the power to control other substances, ( drugs for example) without a Constitutional ammendment?
Where were these "powers" for the Federal Government that did not exsist in 1919 found?
