Abstract
We make much of "Our Federalism."' The Supreme Court routinely crafts doctrine to further its ends, and paeans to federalism regularly appear in law reviews. Federalism is a system that permits minorities to rule, and we are intimately familiar with its benefits: federalism promotes choice, competition, participation, experimentation, and the diffusion of power. The Court reels these arguments off as easily as do scholars.
