It needs to remain a federation but the underlying organization of states should be rearranged (including redrawn borders) for less waste (the large number of municipal governments on the East Coast) and better use of funds. But for a number of reasons that is unlikely to happen. The recent election in Israel was the rumblings of a reckoning - sometimes the gross facade slips and the reality of breakdown is evident. The Americas should have complete freedom of movement and trade and some rationalized tax structure. The President seems to be laying ground on this in Latin America this past week. Eurasia seems unable to federalize properly - but the ideological base of US foreign policy since WW2 is that we must aggressively push federalization. Perhaps our relationship with the other continents can be reevaluated. Hitlers Gay Secret posted:How different of a Federation is Russia? The tradition is that Moscow appoints the regional governor - but Putin has allowed elected governors for some/all provinces I think?

Yeah the patchwork 'State's RIghts' solution to gay marriage is a bureaucratic and human rights mess waiting to happen. Left to their own devices you would have people who are married in one state who would basically have their union annulled if they moved to another. The Federal Government is stepping in at this point and saying that a marriage license is a marriage license nationwide (of course the other libertarian solution is to have secular 'licenses' issued by a judge that aren't called marriages, you are only married if you have a holy person agree to perform the ceremony). The goalposts for the right are now being moved to firing/discrimination against being out.
