  • Only works if your adversaries also cut military spending. Unfortunately countries like Russia have shown that they'll happily attack those unable to defend themselves. This also means that increased military spending can cause less war if it deters those who would otherwise attack.

  • That only works if the carbon in the plastic originally came from the atmosphere, but we use oil to make plastics. So increased demand for plastic = increased demand for oil, and that oil was already sequestered to begin with.

  • Think of it this way - imagine nationally the election is close and how your state distributes EC votes determines the outcome. Let's further say 70% of your citizens voted for candidate A, but for candidate A to win nationally they need all your EC votes. Given that your state laws should primarily be for the benefit of said state's citizens, would you really want an outcome that 70% of your state's voters don't want? All it would take is one election where this determined the outcome before the voters would make it "winner takes all".
