The states were republics when they joined the Confederacy. The colonial governments were constituted on parchment, leaving little room for perogative.Lol, the fuckin country was founded an Democracy because the founding fathers KNOW what unfettered capitalism does. So do I. You are so full of shit too. The owner comes up with borrowed cash and the labor make him his money. Labor pays the taxes. Labor builds the economy. The owner just takes.
Actually we weren't even called a Democracy until the 20th century when Democrats wanted to justify mob rule.
The States are meant to be democracies, not the federal government which is just supposed to provide limited services that must be shared across the States. Primarily defense
