Before I get into this I want to make sure one point otherwise I'm not going to bother with this argument.

Are you talking about completely giving over all power to the states with the central gov having no power?

Or do you allow in your argument the central gov to still have power to tax and make laws?

Bc if it's the former I'm not going to bother because you're asking for the impossible then and it's no point in arguing it.
My argument is based on the 10th Amendment to the US Constitution.

“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

I don't want to do away with the Federal Government, I think they should just be far less powerful. The states should be able to decide issues such as legalizing medical marijuana, de-criminalizing marijuana, gay marriage, etc....
