Social issues should be in the realm of state governments and not the federal government.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

With Federal Courts overturning State Laws; I ask you. How’s that working out for you?

As with any other endeavor, the results depend upon the people involved. Try as we may how could one not be dismayed with John Roberts. Leaving social issues in the hands of the more distant federal government increases the likelihood political hacks making unacceptable decisions.

A voter has more say on all matters in states elections than in federal elections because of the relative sizes of states versus the federal government. A few crumbs are better than none.

I take it that you are totally happy with the Department of Education, the EPA and Department of Energy among other sterling intrusions into our lives?
