There once were limits. There no longer are.
Now you seem to be saying that it's FDR's fault that this drug testing scheme is being proposed by Congress instead of by a bunch of grandstanding state legislators in capitals from Montpelier to Olympia and Tallahassee to Carson City. And yet, how recockulous would it be for professional sports leagues to have to comply with different drug-testing laws in different states? Would the Red Sox have to comply with Illinois's regime when they played at Comisky? If they hadn't complied with Wisconsin's regime, would you have to cancel a Red Sox-Brewers World Series (note: hypothetical requires massive suspension of disbelief).
