When each state is responsible for collecting the property taxes to
send to DC, then each state is essentially making a 'charitable
donation' to the federal government, and theoretically could find
someplace else to put their money if it doesn't stay within its limits.

It is always advantageous to maneuver one sovereign power to face off
against another. Its more of a fair fight than uncle sugar sending the
storm troopers to squash each individual, one at a time.
