It's a delicate balance between respecting the rights of the several states to govern themselves, and saving the citizens of those states from the greedy, corrupt, or inept state legislatures.
Then amend the US Constitution to allow for the Federal Government to exert such authority. If this becomes law it will be overturned.

Unfortunately it won't. The 10th Amendment hasn't been enforced since the 1930s.

Why amend the Constitution when they can simply create a law and let that law be challenged? If it stands, then that is the way it is. If it falls, then time to try another angle if need be.

To all posters and not just Skippy25 See Profile, the Federal Government already has exerted its authority over all things related to communications...even down to individual pieces of property. This is an example of that:

No kidding. Would be nice if our congress critters actually read the constitution. Things would be better if they all acted like Dr. No.
