Each state has its own government to deal with state issues. However, sometimes states have an issue passed by voters which is later put down by the federal government, such as; medical marijuana, defining marriage, ect. If states where given all power to govern some could ban abortion, outlaw homosexuality, and put the ten commandments in every state building. Likewise some states could alow stem cell research, give gay couples the same rights as heteros, and hold a clear division between church and state.
It seems to me that the federal government isn't doing much for the people of the U.S. these days. Why not get rid of them? They have amased a debt that could simply go away if they were disbanded. No one would have to pay the federal income tax that is used solely to pay the interest on the debt the feds keep expanding with their war.
Each state could cooperate with one another as the EU does for a unified currency. Then have military/rescue trained units to unite in crisis.
