Democrats use state rights to protect scientifically and economically sound policies when there is an obvious bad faith actions on the part of the Federal Government.
- jedberg 8y agoThat’s a bad argument to make, only because conservatives believe that their state’s rights issues also stem from scientifically and economically sound policy.
- pm90 8y agoNo they don't. Their arguments are based around different interpretations of the constitution and protection of various ill-defined "freedoms" (freedom from religious persecution, freedom of choice etc.) They happily do not include science in their political calculus.
- gammateam 8y agoand slavery in the 1850s I mean if reacting against the Federal Government not upholding contractual obligations is your argument then the democratic party has been consistent! (look, don't get defensive to protect the base, I've got zero chips in the game, just come up with a better argument)
