I've been told since at least 1980 that small, local government was best. I was given the impression that state level government was probably the optimum level to decide things, cities and counties could go off the rails in various ways.

I haven't see a coherent rationale for reversing course on this doctrine, which was extremely strongly held, and cited a lot.
