This is exactly how the United States is setup. Notice how pot is legal in some states and not others? I don't see the National Guard marching on Colorado.

Show me the state where you can show full penetrative sex on public TV at 9pm, like you can in europe, and I'll agree they're independent.
EDIT: OK, that was a dumb example. Substitute banning guns, or lowering the drinking age, or lowering income tax. Country-level things.
> like you can in europe
Europe is not an homogeneous place. Some parts of Europe are just as if not more conservative than the most conservative parts of the US. Europe in fact proves my point if we think of Europe (the EU) as a collection of nation states each with their own local laws. BTW, where in Europe is full penetration shown on a public TV at 9pm?
Not really. It's frigging pot. It's been de-facto legal for decades.
Show me a state doing something serious, like banning guns, reversing roe v wade, changing the state language, change the voting age. Difference-between-country stuff. I should have thought of something like that for my initial post; would have reduced this silly nitpicking.
And thanks, I'm not from the USA but I'm from a federation too so yeah, I have some idea. As for the China knowledge - looking forward to your cogent, evidenced retort. 请说普通话。
You realize gun and abortion laws already vary greatly from state to state?
