After seeing the Supreme Court deny the Texas lawsuit, I felt my heart drop to my stomach. I know this isn’t the end of the line, but my mental state is not doing too well at the moment over this election. My backup plan has always been to move to Florida to escape tyranny at the federal level, but is it realistic to think that simply living in a conservative-ruled state would protect me from the awful communist agenda potentially coming? How much power do states have in comparison to the federal government exactly? Can DeSantis or whoever the state government is successfully refuse socialist healthcare mandates, indoctrination in schools, lockdowns, mandatory vaccines, etc in the state? And to what extent? Anyone who knows more about law than I do, feel free to chime in. I want to feel like I’ll be okay no matter what happens.
