To my mind much of the polarization is in part the result of more and more power being handed to a winner-takes-all Federal system. If more power were in the States, then it is more likely that the laws will reflect your political views, and/or have an option to move to another State without having to leave your nation. With most eggs being in the Federal basket, which (generally) does not make laws for one state but not another, you are going to have a bunch of unhappy folks no matter what law gets passed.
