so big constitutional changes cant be direct democracy
@Death in June States rights went out the window a century ago.
the current system where its based on individual states is fine
But I'm pretty on board with the Federal Government enforcing certain freedoms for all citizens in all states
no reason to ruin that
I meant the UK
Like BRexit going to the people was the right decision imo
sure so what's the point of weighting votes from different states differently
@Andrew Popa 2.0 ya but depends what you mean. The whole “crush states rights” bit seems a bit..... much?
Everyone seems to have ignored/forgotten that fact.
Doesn't matter, we got a say in leaving it
Say for example in the US you could consume marijuana that you've just legally bought from a store in a state and get arrested for it in another
The fact that generation didn't go to task is their own fault
It does matter. No vote - 100% rejection.
marijuana isnt federally legal
This also goes on top a shit load of varying gun controls laws
you fucking retard
Alcohol laws
I know that
@Andrew Popa 2.0 even if the feds could enforce stuff they would still arrest you for marijuana
stay out of their state while high
My point is
Should kids still be able to buy tobacco at 18 state wise when federal it’s 21 ?
people in a community have the right to make their own laws
The Federal Government should take responsibility for assuring the rights of its citizens
And streamline and clarify on laws impending on certain freedoms
the federal government has no right to interfere with states rights
Things the federal government should control:
The military.
The nuke button.
The defense of the nation.
Things the states should control:
Literally everything else.
except with certain rights granted in the constitution
the feds have no right to interfere with alcohol laws
the feds *do* have the right to remove gun control laws
@Scale_e migration
difference
And that's a shame
lmao states can deny constitutional laws?
Federal government should control migration
Imagine a centralized US where all freedoms are guaranteed directly by the Federal Government
