im not sure how you'd do it

I don't see any States first stuff

maybe by referenda?

they do but you know lawyers; they will ALWAYS try to take it out of context and come up with a reason

actually considering how well brexit has gone

maybe a referendum is a bad idea

The 10th Ammendment clearly declares that every State has the CHOICE of what powers to hand over to the Federal goverment

(or should i say is going)

and they can revoke any authority that has been given to the Federal Gov at any time

currently, State govs are powerless because the Federal gov uses a form of blackmail in regards to taxes

if a State doesn't say follow the Federal Education mandates, the Federal gov witholds money for Roads or something else

pretty good voice

it's a trade-off between one centralized agency handling buisness for all the states or a seperate department each doing the same thing in all 50 states

the latter would be burrearcy hell

If a state doesn’t X the federal government withholds Y.

Cough.

*1776!*

yup

Yeah that's why the age for alcohol consumption is 21

there's no national age set

but the federal government threatened to withhold funding from any state that didn't raise it from 18 to 21

so they all did

yeah, they have in essence rewritten the rules using economies of scale as justification

Rule 1: Save money

America First.

So they centralized everything rather than having a seperate agency for each state

Rule 2: Don't centralize

wait.. what about rule 1?

"ok, i don't see the harm...."

I remember people saying the same thing way back when the Conservatives warned of the nuclear family being destroyed by enabling liberal shit

Lesson: The young ALWAYS think they know better... and they always never do...

I bet you are secretly smelling your farts to learn about the state of your gut bacteria

nope. i care not

truly a scientific method

@ManAnimal I have to agree with that

for science!

for the people who are still alive

I am suprised no one ever points out that any legal argument against seccesion is completely retarded as the MOMENT a state decides to leave, the Federal Gov HAS no legal standing to even make an argument

Yeah but they cannot succeed though. You need 2/3rds ratification by the states to do so
