The other 'poison pill' was the Commerce Clause. (Mis-)Interpreted as it is today, it gives Congress the power to regulate any human activity whatsoever, since it MIGHT affect interstate commerce. This 'interpretation', of course, makes a mockery of the Enumerated Powers and the 10th Amendment, so clearly it cannot be the intent of the Framers.

But No One Cares, so This Does Not End Well.
