We need to bring the bulk of the seat of government back to local, closer to the people it actually governs. Government of a people from a distance has never worked out very well. Real government has to actually be down in the trenches with them so that it can see and gauge the results of it's action on THEM, not gauge it by the results on a people 1500 miles away from them. What's "good" for Los Angeles is not necessarily "good" for Tanner's Crossroads, WV. There is no "one size fits all" government, and that is the only kind the Federal Government is equipped to provide.
According to the Constitution, The Federal government is there to deal with foreign relations as a nation, trade, war, and the like, and to settle disputes between states, "regulate interstate commerce", and provide for the common defense. They have extended themselves beyond their remit over time, and have used the "interstate commerce" clause to seize power that is not theirs to seize, to deal with things that have no bearing on interstate commerce whatsoever.
They need to be brought back into their proper framework, and the micromanaging of things they know nothing about has to end.

Perfectly said.

Yet I still post.
