Yes. There is a difference between dual federalism where states address needs as they see fit (intended by founders) and the regulatory top-down “federalism” that is shoved down our throats by an overreaching national government.

Not when the money is coming from the federal government. Trumpcare is Obamacare with a different name. Not as bad in some respects. But still nowhere near being a responsibility of the federal government.

Oh, yes, I agree with you on the federal monies part. The ideal plan would be to have the dollars stay in the states and never go to D.C.

Yet I still maintain the “block grant” idea is closer to the founder’s vision. This was the idea endorsed by Reagan’s “New Federalism” principle.

A step in the right direction.
