That's the nature of free association.
I do recognize the strength that comes through centralization. But you gotta look at the problems that have gone unmanaged. Politicians on the right talk about the evils of the welfare state and the democrats pretend to take global warming seriously. Yet they both agree to hand out trillions of dollars in corporate welfare to coal crooks.
