He had his turn. By small localized governments, how small?
For example, I live in Florida. Florida state govt with Ron DeSantis has obliterated regional, county, city and local government powers with a single law:
The “You are allowed to garden in your front yard” law, which was a ruse to give the State of Florida unprecedented power over county and local governments, a new power which they use daily now.
“In 2019, Florida adopted Statute 604.71. This statute states that no county, municipality, or other political subdivision in Florida can regulate vegetable gardens on residential properties.”
Is this the kind of small localized government you are referring to? Or smaller?
