Well, it may be bad policy and still be law. That is why Scalia mentioned slavery in connection with the Arizona case. It may have been bad policy, but even Lincoln acknowledged that a state had a right to institute it.

So what's your point?

Your on a conservative website devoted to defeating socialist crap, no matter if it is implemented at the Federal Level or State Level or County Level or City level and it doesn't matter if a consitution states it is OK to do it or not.

It's not just bad policy, it's socialism.

Quit making excuses for the Progressive Liberalism of Mitt Romney on a conservative website.

It does not pass the smell test.

States are feel to make bad choices. Don’t confuse what they ought to do with what they are allowed to do. The freedom is circumscribed by the the Constitution and nowadays by a domineering central government. Much of this is the fault of the states themselves, because of the bad choices they make. Too often they failure to do their main duty, which is to guard the rights of their citizens.
