Akuma is right about the state law/constitution thing. Why would a conservative, presumably a fan of federalism, be so anxious for Congress to legislate for the states? Did Rush Limbaugh decide the Tenth Amendment is liberal, or something?
And what the hell is this with "the states were supposed to fund the federal government"? Prior to the 16th amendment, the federal government was funded largely by tariffs, an area of policy which is delegated to the federal government by Article I. The states had nothing to do with it.
We're getting pretty far afield.
