States cannot discriminate interstate commerce to bene t intrastate commerce. This is inherent in the commerce clause, dormant within it. Under articles of confederation, state protectionism led to interstate tariffs. This hurts the group of the states. Each state has its own little economy instead of together. Each economy is weaker than the whole together. Politics and economics go together, this means the states would drift apart.
