Oh, I’m not suggesting what MA has done makes the least particle of sense. It is a bald and petty attempt to seem ‘democratic’ and to put all this ‘the US is a republic’ nonsense to bed permanently. All I was saying was that however foolhardy any particular state wants to be in this matter appears to be fully constitutional. The resulting train-wreck, when the proposal is both wrong-headed and foolish, would be most instructive. Here’s hoping the test is graded quickly. Sometimes progressives point to things done and recommend them elsewhere before the consequences have a chance to play out.
Understand. But calling it a “train-wreck” is putting it mildly.
