I never understood this argument- how is state power better than
federal power? If either government has a power, its potential for
abuse. I can understand saying no government should have power X, but
saying its better at the state level than the federal because states are
magically better is sheer sophistry.
Because it's often easier to vote the rascals out on a state level than
a national level.
Because having someone 2000 miles away decide what is best for my state
is an undesirable state of affairs.
Because local control and local accountability works better for most
governmental functions.
Because (Federal government power grabs notwithstanding) that's the way
the country we live in was designed.
