No state is more sovereign than any other state so no state or group of states can tell ANY other state or group of states what it can or cannot do! That is the sole purview of "the people" of each state individually acting through their elected representatives within the state.
Because none of your answers addressed the questions as asked. (Why am I not surprised?)...
...in no way alters the fact that I did. As I said, befor and will repeat for you again here!
Yeah, right. You can't answer any of the questions, never could.
It was one of the key innovations of the Constitution as it was proposed to the Philadelphia Convention, that the federal government does not bind the States (which are sovereign), but rather the individual citizen under "dual sovereignty" -- the State binds him, and the Union binds him, and reconciling the two is the work of the judiciary.
The States' governments and the federal government are supposed to operate in separate, constitutionally-defined spheres. That they don't, is the work of assorted Yankeefying power-mad elites and interest groups trying to ram their arrangements down everyone's throat using perverted interpretations of the Commerce Clause, e.g., and micromanagerial Congressional acts and Executive Orders as more ee.g.
It wasn't supposed to be like this.
In this relation, then, the proposed government cannot be deemed a NATIONAL one; since its jurisdiction extends to certain enumerated objects only, and leaves to the several States a residuary and inviolable sovereignty over all other objects.
-- The Federalist No. 39 (Madison)
This deal has been broken, and the brokenness of the federal system is the legacy of Non-Sequitur's heroes' wet dream of federal omnipotence, omnicompetence, and autocracy.
