I just meant it'd be nicer if, we didn't have to move to Europe for a Denmark styled society, if we could just move to Vermont, Oregon, California, Hawaii, etc...

If the bulk of taxes were paid to the state, not the federal government like 80% of every tax dollar was paid to the state and state's took care of most things, and the federal government just regulated trade, maintained military, etc.. and only as far as the budget of 20% of tax would allow. States would handle their own welfare plans, education systems, etc... I think there's lots of states that could fail if everything was upto them, but some would be booming successes, just like countries in Europe, some are booming some are struggling, each is different in how they attach society's problems.
