The United States is huge. It's approximately the size of western Europe and has a similar population. One of the results is that regional cultures can vary a lot throughout the country. That in mind it seems kind of ridiculous that these regions don't have more power over their lives and finances. Is it really reasonable for the federal government to exert so much social and economic control over such a large and varied population? I don't think the states need much from the federal government in the form of being told how to live their lives or spend their money. Also if states had more control we'd have a clearer picture of which ideologies work and which ones are bullshit.
