Detroit is the federal government

"The last thing Detroit needs is a bailout. What it needs is to sweep away a city charter that protects only bureaucrats, civil-service rules that straightjacket municipal departments, and obsolete union contracts. A bailout would just keep the dysfunction in place. Time to start over."

Unlike Detroit's charter, the constitution is intact, and all that needs to be done is follow it. What needs to be swept away is the obsolete, layered laws, past by a backscratching, lazy legislatures, and virtually all of the rules created by unelected clerical personal, to their own benefit.

The laws need to stand alone, a interposing rule is counterproductive.
