It's becoming a show down between the Feds and the States rights to self determination. Hmmmm it all sounds strangely familiar. Can't quite put my finger on it, something like....
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
From - The Declaration of Independence, July 4th 1776
