I would think it’s easier to prosecute crimes federally when you have people doing illegal activities with animals and transporting them across state lines. Otherwise each state would have a different law for the same crimes.

I’ll dignify your response with an answer. That’s the kind of guy I am.
I once read that in the beginning the only federal crimes were treason, counterfeiting and piracy. Basic sovereignty resided with the states for most purposes. I think it’s an intelligent practice to question any new encroachment of federal power over local governance.
I don’t think you need to be pro-cruelty to question the role of the federal government in that particular area.
Well then don't you think we should just do away with states and give the federal government total rule? Shouldn't the feds decide how much an hour of worker time in Pascagoula MS is worth and then force all employers everywhere to match it? Shouldn't they decide the property tax rates in every little burg to ensure everyone is paying enough? Shouldn't the Dept of Education replace school boards everywhere to ensure proper indoctrination during our children's crucial and most influential years? Shouldn't HUD replace zoning boards across the land to make sure no one has too much house?
We're already getting pretty close to letting the feds control every aspect of our health care so it's not much of a leap to grant them total authority over the means of production and output as well as what markets are allowed to exist and which must be banned (for the public good of course). I guess the question is, do you really think it's a good idea to allow all that?

Yea Steyer, not a ton of interest but I know someone campaigning for him, which is more than I've heard for Biden. Noone here seems to be supporting Gabbard, only Biden is a "front runner" and also seems to have no real support. Like literally not a single bumper sticker.
