That’s the thing. When these policies fail, then the leftists in these states immediate run to the federal government to implement it nationwide, so that ALL states can suffer. That’s why the Founders were ahead of their time with the ideals of federalism.
I go on sites like FB, Yahoo and the Slimes and do battle with the lefties. As a former Democrat it finally dawned on me about ten years ago that the party was going extreme radical left, and it was taking the country down a path I didn’t want to go down. Common sense will tell you that the policies the left are pursuing are all wrong. I’m always hopeful that enough Dems will have their “reawakening” to help us save the country. Right now I have to admit that’s still an iffy proposition. Still too many uninformed kool-aid drinkers amongst our countrymen.
