When are we going to start holding states accountable for their own expenses? The federal government really should not be involved in the salaries of state and below employees.
We really have to decide whether we wish to remain the United States of America or continue our morphing toward the United Federation of America.
There are advantages and disadvantages of both, but we need to decide what we want to be. One thing we can't to is be a little bit of both and not enough of either.
Personally, I am leaning toward the United States of America. The Federal Government needs to concern itself with all matters not pertaining to individual states and to those matters involving multiple states (with a rewriting of the Commerce Clause!!)
Anything else is state.
But I can also appreciate the disadvantages and risks of that also.
Not a simple concept at all.
