    Nah states rights are a sham. Eventually, federal courts decide what a states rights are, and federal courts are stacked.

    See: Gore v. Bush. I think future historians will mark that case as the official start of humanity’s descent. Like shooting Franz Ferdinand.

    “powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution” has several convenient loopholes, such as the commerce clause. Eventually almost everything is inter-state trade.
