You don't get it because you don't want to. You prefer a large central government. We prefer a smaller, decentralized government. It isn't a matter of that the states would or could run it better - it's the fact that some states will have the common sense to know that the government should not be involved in social programs. Those states would have low taxation, and the citizens would be free to enjoy the fruits of their own labor, and to manage their own affairs. Those states would be attractive to us. States that would control all areas of your life would be attactive to you. At least there would be a choice. What are YOU afraid of if you turn it over to the states?
