Even in Congress the States seem to bear a major vote. No act has gone beyond federal limits—many important ones have stopped far short. The States, on the other hand, keep up an almost incessant siege. There is scarcely an article which some of them have not co­legislated upon.

[…] it seems we can also say that since most of his subjects are his own product, the supreme authority in a state, the sovereign, has the right to lead them into a war as he would take them on a hunt, and into battles as on a pleasure trip. While such an argument for this right (which may well be present obscurely in the monarch’s mind) holds with regard to animals, which can be one’s property, it simply cannot be applied to human beings, especially as citizens of a state. For they must always be regarded as colegislating members of a state (not merely as means, but also as ends in themselves), and must therefore give their free assent, through their representatives, not only to waging war in general but also to each particular declaration of war.
