16. smallest jurisdiction
say there is a problem with deglaciation of yosemite national park?, yes.

This is a global problem, a national problem, a california problem, a
problem for the counties around yosemite, the national parks nationally,
the national parks body western states, or YOSEMITE national park.
There are many rubber bands of government, and the larger the rubber
band, the more people it surrounds, so in a democracy, a rubber band
that aurrounds 300,000,000 people is intensely large. And likely a
government direclty smaller, like "yosemite parks".

So in that metaphor, municipal setting of minimum wages, that the problem
is best realized municipally, in local government, where knowledge of the
"frame" exists... and this be state governmetn, local government....
preferring the smallest jurisdiction with the ability to resolve the
problem... that is the EU way of project design.

From things from the EU to gas pipelines, this be the way, international
project coordination, across jurisdictions, gets harder the larger it is..
and it is easier to act locally, better and preferred, so the eu model
is to empower the local complexity to resolve the government conundrum,
and not to federalize it, or rather, to very carefully, delicately
selectively federalize aspects of the governance best kept with their
natural monopolies....

I'm sorry my lady, i've ranted nonsense, but there was something,
and i'm just on planet zoid this evening... good night indeed
graceful being, may all the graces of goodwill of everyone who
wishes enlightenment come to you.

woof.
