State don't need any rights other than taxation. We should have uniform laws throughout the country. It's absolute nonsense that each state can and does make it's own laws and regulations. It's political BS at its very zenith, in my humble opinion! Then how we go about undoing pot prohibition? Or should we just follow the corrupt leaders? That is probable the best argument I know of for "States Rights". However I think the excesses far outweigh the benefits. It's true that one or two states can begin change, i.e. gay marriage & legalizing pot but at the same time look how a few can and have been able to block the peoples will, i.e. abortion rights & gun control.
Somehow other countries seem to get by just fine with a central law making system. not to mention equal enforcement of it. It's absolutely nonsense that each state should have different voting regulation, motor vehicle laws, licensing requirements, etc. The system stinks but unfortunately, we shall never see it changed! I've said that many times in plenty of threads; Just leave the word " United" of the word USA; just make it the States. Like I said before there is more coherence in Europe than here, with the exception of the Brits who still have their " pound", "inches" and drive on the wrong side of the road. Therefore I think we can indeed blame the Brits for the mess here; if the Dutchies would have kept New York my guess is it would be a better place!! Ha, Ha.
