I agree. If anything, the idea tends to be a conservative one, given that conservatives tend to avoid problem solving of any kind at the federal (i.e., large scale) level. Conservatives fight against solving almost everything at national level, want problem solving to be smaller, more local. This tends to be an issue for progressives because rich localities have fewer problems (but many resources to solve them) and poor localities tend to have more problems (but fewer resources to solve them).

Forcing their will and the will of their lobbyists on those below them. Conservatives' professed interest in smaller more, individualized and localized solutions is a shell game.
