Leftists, ready to support stronger states rights? It's looking like the Supreme Court will be out of your camp for a while now.

Compromise: Massively dial back Federal Programs, but you get to push through as much Bernie Sanders free shit economics as you want at the state level.

That can work. Let the few states that actually want that crap have it, while the remainder of the US can continue to function as a normal society.

Of course, the question is, given that the states aren't allowed to prevent people leaving to another state... how exactly is socialism at a state level going to be enforced?

It can't stop productive people from voting with their feet. So the standard socialist collapse would happen earlier than usual. Some people can only learn the hard way.

Edit: Unfortunately my compromise misses the fact that Dems want open borders. Border security is one of the few things the Federal Government is actually supposed to handle, and it's the one thing that Dems don't want it handling.
