It seems that EVERYTHING now is Federally-mandated. Unfortunately, when our founding fathers wrote the Constitution, that is NOT what they had in mind. EVERYTHING that is not directly in the Constitution is supposed to be up to the states.
That way, if you don't like a particular law (Abortion for example), you don't have to get it nationally reversed. All you have to do is get your particular state to reverse it, or move to a different state.
Abortion
Homosexual marriage
Gun control
Education policies
Crime punishment
--I am sure I am forgetting some
All of these should be STATE LAWS, but it seems that the feds are poking their noses in every one. Does anyone else want a return to the 10th Amendment?
