I completely agree. The original concept behind a central government in the first place was threefold: First to arbitrate when states could not agree, Second to handle projects that spanned multiple states, such as canal and later highway development, and Third to represent a united front to foreign powers, since having each individual state deal with foreign trade separately was impossible, mainly because the foreign powers refused that option.
