1 gen 1824 anni - Gibbons vs. Ogden

Descrizione:

This court case's decision gave Congress the power to regulate interstate commerce. Since commerce was at that time defined as all forms of commercial activity, Congress was given power to regulate activities that did not exist at that time, like radio, television, the internet and telephone.

Since Gibbons vs Ogden was decided very broadly, Congress was granted an enormous amount of power. When it was first decided, it still gave the federal government a substantial responsibility over trading goods between states, but as technology advanced, new mediums of commercial activity were left to be regulated by the national government.
