Key issues that states are better equipped to handle than a vain attempt by a group of 535 "representatives" :
1. The ability to choose modern systems of Representation such as Direct Democracy, which through technological empowerment will put power back into the hands of the people.
2. A system of Representation that does not allow the aid of Corporate, Investment or Religious currency to sway the outcome of voted issues or elections.
3. Allow states to operate independently for increased accurate input from it's regionalized citizens, with national elections only necessary for self-defense and state to state violence or greed. Thus creating less of a Union than a collective when needed, but with collective interests decided on by individual State votes THAT CARRY EQUAL WEIGHT.
