Cheryl,

You stated, " Not wanting to get too off track here, but the USA is a republic and the
only purpose of the FEDERAL gov't is to protect the states - NOT regulate
them..."


Please check the following reference.............

http://www.house.gov/Constitution/Constitution.html

Section. 8. (Powers of Congress)
Clause 3: To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes; 

Sorry, beg to differ......
