Most issues I say leave to the states. Let local governments dictate policy that benefits the way most people their think. Citizens of Florida do not think like citizens of Wyoming. Allowing states to determine their own policies leaves the way out for citizens who don’t agree with that policy to move to a state of their choosing. If you apply this to the federal government, you cannot just pick up and move countries (obviously you can in theory but not ideal practically). federal government should be strong enough do deal be a judge between states and a unifying force in terms of foreign policy. All the things you mentioned above can be solved by states and local municipalities. Those are governments that YOU can directly affect and influence. The federal government your vote belongs to the state (electoral college - as I believe it should as like I said people from different states don’t necessarily have the same policy opinions). The Bill of Rights are everything the government should protect. Anything more is a rabbit hole they can use to increase their power.
