Can you explain to me how this does not include freedom to come to agreement with others?

That is a fundamental misstatement of the Constitutional position.

The question isn't whether people can make contracts. It is whether the act of "making a contract" nullifies all federal regulatory authority under the Commerce Clause.

According to ACers, it does.
According to everyone else on planet earth, it doesn't.

NO its not to "nullify all federal regulatory authority"

Its the question of whether a free people should be able to enter into a simple business arrangement. Without the constant threat of the imperial federal government forcing its money grubbing hands into a place where it has no business under any reasonable stretch of constitutional powers.
This isn't an AC thing its a survival thing. If you wanna throw up the ZOMG!!1 AC-ism strawman by all means go for it. But some of us just want to live and provide for our families
