1. The Constitution was ratified by the colonies with the proviso that the concept of 'federalism' would be the basic doctrine of the new nation.


2. Federalism, "... a system of government in which sovereignty is constitutionally divided between a central governing authority and constituent political units (such as states or provinces).
Federalism is a system based upon democratic rules and institutions in which the power to govern is shared between national and provincial/state governments,..." Federalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



3. Based on the concept of federalism, there was no need for a Supreme Court making certain that every locality had the very same view of culture, custom, tradition, and values.

Ronald Reagan used the phrase ‘voting with your feet,’ meaning move to where you are more comfortable with the rules. This nation was founded on individualism, not on collectivism.



4. For example, different states have different ways of expressing the second amendment.
Seems to work pretty well.



5. But.....when it comes to abortion.....suddenly that invalid body, the Supreme Court, has taken it unto itself to mandate that every state have the same rule about its legality.




Except ....this:
"Kentucky House Passes Constitutional Amendment Specifying There’s No Right to Abortion
The Kentucky House of Representatives passed two pro-life bills, including legislation that seeks to amend the state constitution to specify that it provides no legal right to an abortion.

"To protect human life, nothing in this Constitution shall be construed to secure or protect a right to abortion or require the funding of abortion," the amendment proposed in the bill states. The bill received bipartisan support, passing in a 71-21 vote on Tuesday.

The bill's sponsor, Rep. Joe Fischer (R.), said it would "end the slaughter of unborn children in Kentucky," according to the Courier Journal."
