Ah yes, having 50 different states that add a redundant level of government that is usually very corrupt because no one pays attention to their political inner workings (because of said redundancy)--and which are easily played off against one another by capitalist entities in a race to the bottom--is good.

which, fuck them, maybe I don't want to immediately watch a video and actually just wanted to get the page ready so I can watch later
