Maastricht Treaty revisions needed?

[kandrathe]

A bad decision is better than no decision, and all that.

But... But... This is why I want things to be local. Sure, our rights as given by the Federal constitution need to be protected as a broad consensus, but how we choose to implement some policy, or whether we want to allow people to smoke pot surely can be handled as local concerns. So, let New Yorkers choose what works best for New York, but if they go bankrupt --- keep their fingers out of the Federal cookie jar! They chose badly, and now they need to suffer their own crappy choices. Individuals and corporations from other around the world should be free to choose to help out with things like Katrina, or an oil spill cleanup. In our great system, even that is restricted by things like the Jones Act.
