You're only kidding yourself if you think big money wont just be shifted from the federal to the state level. Corruption is just as bad at the state level. Let's add more money and less federal oversight and see what we end up with shall we?

It doesn't fucking matter what it does or doesn't do. The federal government is for raising a national defense and protecting, upholding, enforcing and defending the constitution. Thats it. Its not for providing food for the homeless, planning your retirement, schooling your kids, building highways or any of the zillions of other things it does that it has no business doing. The federal government of today, for the most part, exists in violation of the law.
