You should try facts sometime.
As one example:
In 2005 CT AG sued the federal gov’t for imposing a $50 M cost in UNFUNDED mandates on CT school systems.
Point is, Federal tax revenue in the form of block grants and other funds to the states do not match mandates or costs. So yes, many states would be happy to get out from under the burden.

Perhaps states would want to “get out from under”... of course from from unfunded mandates. Of course it’s the funded mandates that I suspect States would have a hard time giving up. This would obviously make it extremely hard for a state legislator to vote for what you seek if they new they’d have to jack state taxes just to maintain the status quo. I’m not saying it couldn’t be done but I think it would be extremely difficult especially in states with large urban populations (which is getting to be most states these days). I don’t mean to say it’s impossible just difficult. But hey what do I know. I thought young people would jump at Bush’s very modest privatization of social security proposal but they were too distracted with Bush hatred to even care and AARP killed it. But best of luck to the effort.
