C.f. the Depression-era farmer found to be engaged in interstate trade

never having actually left his (all within a single state) property.
The penalty for which was being denied a certificate to sell in the
interstate market.
Which unfortunately meant not being able to feed his cows, I suppose.
Why not? It didn't stop him from buying anything. (Besides, he fed
his cows the grain he grew.)
