This only sounds like it would work if each state had some kind of physical and cultural separation. We already see in Illinois how state level gun control is failing. It doesn’t matter how strict Illinois sets its gun laws, they still pour in from the lax neighbors. If we want to let human rights choices be set at the state level, we need to provide some kind of subsidized “get out of dodge” program for the people negatively affected by the state level decisions, as those people are usually the poorest and least mobile. Can you imagine trying to sell “your taxes are going to pay for moving gay people to California/NY” to the constituents in dark red states?
