23. And the Constitution allows states and municipalities to do their thing, too.

Check your Bill of Rights, there.

"Authorities" aren't "making up" laws--they are passed by representatives of the citizens in the communities where the laws are in place--state legislatures, city councils, etc.

These legislators and council members are not "authorities" -- they are elected representatives, servants of the people in the communities they serve.
