  3. You’re comment contradicts itself. “The founders didn’t give us states to be experimental” “The power comes from the states…not the founders”. Since you acknowledge the founders created the states then yes the power of the states comes from the founders who created the Constitution that outlines that power. They created the states, they didn’t “create” the states. The states came together to create a country. The states are so that each person can live under rules and laws they most agree with. The way the power structure was laid out, it was intentionally so change would occur slowly and new ideas could be tried by different states with different ideas, economies, resources, etc. If the new idea worked in most areas, Congress could then decide to add it into federal law. If it worked for some but failed in others, the states it worked for would be able to keep it and the ones it didn’t could reject it. That way every state would be unique and the people could freely move between them to under laws they found more to their liking. It was never supposed to be homogeneous or states imposing laws onto other states. I’d suggest reading the Federalist papers and other writings from the founders to understand their vision instead of deciding what you think they meant. They were pretty clear. Originally your loyalty was to state and then country. It was following the Civil War that a more powerful federal government was pushed and loyalty only to the country.
