It's a great example of the abuse from multiple angles.
First, historical, as has been referenced in this thread. A few years prior to Wickard, the federal government did not believe it had the power to regulate these goods/substances, so they sought an amendment to our constitution to be granted that authority. 18A was ratified in 1919 and Wickard was decided in 1942. That's almost no temporal difference.
Second, this power has completely destroyed our country from the inside and has been the largest attack on our actual rights since slavery. Federal drug laws are the premier example of federal overreach and the destruction of our liberty in the modern era.

That wholesale attitude shift in 20 years amazes me.
