"Get out of the shadow of states' rights and walk forthrightly into the
bright sunshine of human rights."
Hubert Horatio Humphrey, 1948
Level Rights: When human rights and states rights are one and the same.
To make things right, the right to power must be at the right level, that is, the duty and responsibility to solve problems efficiently and optimally must be apportioned to appropriate level of human activity from individual to global.
Summary/Overview
With optimal level rights we will have lifesaving democracy as opposed to the present fossil politics.
When the individual is optimally appropriated his duties and powers to solve his individual problems then all levels above the individual are optimally sized to the smallest cost to the individual in his time. In other words, if the individual takes his time to solve his problems then the problems don't grow where attempts to solve the problems by family, community or nation take more of the individual's time in taxes or inflation to address the problem.

We should apportion ways and means to the optimal level
of existence
to solve the problems that originate there.
