+Potential interstate problems: Article 4 of the Constitution
+- "Full faith and credit clause": states must honor legitimacy of others
+    - Ex: driver's licenses are validated in other states
+- Privileges and immunities
+    - You don't become an immigrant by moving states
+    - Citizen of Georgia = Citizen of Florida
+- Interstate extradition
+    - Fleeing a crime between states means you get sent back
+- Interstate compacts
+    - Subject to congressional approval
+    - Because this will increase the power/rights of a state
+- Still being decided through state powers, census, districting
+
+Two general stages of federalism since civil war
+- Dual federalism (1829-1937)
+    - Divided based on commerce
+    - Interstate = federal domain
+        - Limited at the time, local commerce much more common
+    - Intrastate = full state control
+- Cooperative federalism, started by New Deal (1937-1968)
+    - Federally funded but state-administered
+    - National Government has a bigger role because they hold the purse
+    - Social Welfare motivated in public opinion
+- The 1970s have unclear federalism
+    - Public opinion turns against feds: Recession, Vietnam, Nixon
+- 1980s--present shifts more power to the states
+    - President Reagan reshapes federalism
+        - Public opinion against big government
+        - Block Grants replace states administering specific programs
+            with states administering a lump sum social welfare system.
+        - Puts blame onto state governments
+        - Lets Reagan build up national defense as much as possible
+    - Rehnquist Court - Commerce Clasue
+        - Expanded definition of intrastate commerce
+    - Reverting to dual federalism
+- Future
+    - FBI and counterterrorism actually hand power back to the states
+    - Devolution: shift power from national to states
+        - Clarence Thomas - conservative on SC - favors state power
+            - Believes it to protect private activity and indiv. freedom
+            Arguments:
+            - Geographically easy to petition government
+            - States control day-to-day bureacracy
+            - Federal programs can be shaped to state pops.
+            - States innovate new individual rights (ex social programs)
+            - You can migrate to shop around for rights
+        - Good or bad? Unclear.
+        - But there is a greater burden on state finances
