I'm familiar with the argument, the feds tried to use it in their case against Oregon but the supremes ruled against the feds because IIRC of the 10th amendment...I could be wrong...I'll have to look it up again but I know the main argument by the feds was the drugs (used to euthanize people) cross state lines
