    One state, with their own unique state legislation, with a federal legislation on top of that.

    Not unlike one member country of EU. With their own legislation, with EU legislation on top of that.

    Same shit different names. Except EU members actually have the power to secede if they want to.

      I genuinely don’t know this, does the eu collect taxes from member nations and redistribute it to poorer nations or in natural disasters?
