This is the general bullsh*t that the republicans have been selling for decades now. Their REAL aim is to breakup big power organizations (like the Federal Government) - then their Billionaires can feed off the country easier.
That has always REALLY been what's behind "States Rights"...... the ability for the rich to pick everybody's pocket with nobody watching. Notice that republicans always want to sell off "Public Lands"...... guess where the money goes.
People's actual rights are of no concern to republicans - they never have been.
