Its such a shame that the notion is so ingrained in our society now, that only the federal government can bestow such privileges upon people. We have city and state governments too... the whole idea of reducing the role of the *federal* government, is to allow the states the ability to do more.

As a direct result, the individual will have *much* more influence over what happens in their communities and states. Where does your voice count more? When its one out of 250-300 million people, or when its 1 out of the population of your state? You want a Pel grant like program for your state? State wide government provided health care? Work with through your state government to make it happen...
