Just a cursory reading of the Constitution of the United States of America will reveal that Federal responsibilities are very limited.

It takes a lot of education, cajoling and sophistry to read multi-generational welfare, land grabs, progressive taxation and massive intrusion into the lives of Americans into the responsibilities delineated in the document.

Governing in light of the Framers intent shouldn't be that difficult.

On the other hand, it would be more difficult to be a State Legislature, given their responsibilities which are not found in the Constitution.

It's upside down, and in general, governments don't willingly give back power to the people.
