> The best solution is to have uniform federal regulation with no state laws.

If we believe that government mostly does the right thing for the people, this is true. One set of rules, simpler, more efficient.

OTOH, if there ever was a hope that government is driven by a desire to do the right thing for the people, that has certainly been shattered lately. It is now completely transparent that they're in it for the grift and personal power, that's it full stop. They don't even pretend otherwise anymore.

So, having laws being as decentralized as possible is the best solution. Having to bribe and corrupt 50 state legislatures is a lot more work than bribing and corrupting a handful of people in DC.

Even more decentralized would be better. Counties should set their own laws without interference from above. There are 3244 counties in the US, it would now take enormous work to bribe and corrupt 3244 legislatures.

Inefficient? Yes, very. So be it. That's still better than a few oligarchs imposing their will for personal benefit from the top.
