Our federal government needs to return to the concepts of its original enumerated powers. I think the route to do this is through SCOTUS. The doolar amount to run the federal government should be calculated annually and each state would pay 1/51 of this total, I am including Puerto Rico in this as well. An amendment would need to be added to the constitution to eliminate federal taxes. Each state would create their own policies and laws as long as they are deemed constitutional. Federal laws would be kept to the necessary minimum needed. Each individual/family would live in the state that operated best in the way they want to live. Each state pays its own bills. There should be Ann annual payment to the federal government from each state to get our Democratic Republic out of debt. Each state would make 1/51 of the annual payment. There would be many existing laws deemed unconstitutional and deleted. Some laws would need tweeking. For example the federal government would be in charge of border control, but the border states would need to pass the exact same law. Once our debt is eliminated there would be a decrease in annual state payment for this debt removal. In other words, states rights take president, as the constitution originally stated, with minimal exception. Segment one of this idea. I would appreciate if you would add constructive criticism and laughter about this idea. State government will be a different topic discussed at a different time.
