One of the exclusive powers of the national government is to regulate interstate commerce.

Interstate commerce is part of the exclusive power given to the federal government by the constitution of the United State. Interstate commerce is buying, selling or exchanging commodities, transportation of people from place to place, cash or products and navigating water among different states.

Article 1 of the constitution authorized the federal government to regulate interstate, the federal government is also empowered to regulate trade within a state if it could have an effect on the interstate movement of products and services. The government may strike down state policies that are obstacles or seen to be creating a barrier to such movement

Congress enacted the interstate commerce act in 1887 which birthed interstate commerce commission (ICC). It was created for the sole responsibility of overseeing the conduct of the railway sector. The interstate commerce commission (ICC) was also authorized to regulate interstate commerce.  

Different issues were raised as to the effectiveness of interstate commerce commission due to the fact that ICC most controlled interstate trucking was neglected in 1994. In 1995 the agency was terminated and National surface transportation Board took over some of its core functions.

KEYWORDS:

  • interstate commerce commission (icc )
  • regulate interstate commerce
  • commerce commission icc
  • regulate interstate

The real purpose of Mao was to destroy and remove from office his political opponents and critics, thus consolidating his position as Red China´s paramount leader. He used his wife Jiang Qing and other radicals to launch and promote the campaign. Its official aim was to destroy vestiges of the old, traditional, "reactionary" Chinese culture - such as Confucianism, Buddhism - and burgueois, rightist elements in the Communist Party. The Red Guards movement started in universities and schools. Mao was delighted about them and allowed their abuses. They publicly denounced, vilified, beat and humilliated hundreds of thousands of innocent people. They were a magnificent weapon of caos and destruction.

sveticcg [70]

Thoureau wanted to poit to the fact that following traditions limits us and deprives us from developing our imgination.
