If* the idea is that states would collect taxes, they'd still be paying them up to the federal government. What would change is the collection and enforcement mechanism.

Essentially, this gives a lot of states the ability to threaten the federal government's operations. If the federal government pisses of Florida, then Florida decides there might be some hiccups when it comes time to send their share to Washington.
