Constitutional rights don't cover the rules of commerce in it's public form for shopping, owning a retail business, import/export or sharing of business revenues between contracted individuals or companies.

Article VII. Executive, Section 7 of the Cherokee Constitution, mentions the right to hold meetings for the purpose of conducting business.

The Cherokee Constitution is very similar to the American Constitution, with the outlining of human rights expectations and laws, civil rights, their judicial system and financial requirements.

An occurence of trade is mentioned in The Treaty of Holston of 1791, Article VI: It is agreed on the part of the Cherokees, that the United States shall have the sole and exclusive right of regulating their trade.

These are from the regulations of the Cherokee Nation in Talequah, Oklahoma.

The lack of enumerated constraint suggest freedom of commerce. When powers are enumerated the implications is constraint. The Cherokee constitution seems to imply more freedom
