It's basically why the Articles of Confederation failed. The federal government was too made to weak to achieve much - each region (New England, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Carolina) was individually powerful enough to ignore it.

Although, the EU is a lot stronger than the Articles of Confederation ever were, given that the EU has sorted out how it gets funded from year to year.
