Answer: An increase in categorical grants over block grants
Explanation:
Going by the Constitution of the United States, the individual states have considerable power in governing their own affairs such that when the Federal Government wants to implement changes, they would need the states to comply.
One way of doing this is through the use of Federal Categorical grants. These are grants by the Federal Governments to the States that are conditional on the state doing a something that the Federal Government requires or rather the state has to use the money in a way the Federal Government wants them to.
This therefore gives the Federal Government power to control to some extent, the affairs of state. Overtime these types of grants have increased and so Federal power over states has increased as well.

A prince's military is a metaphor of his own country. Their country is considered united if it is mostly composed of his own men, yet "if one holds his states based on [auxiliaries and mercenaries], [his state is] neither firm nor safe" and is not united. Machiavelli explains that losing a situation with auxiliaries and mercenaries is the same as "one is undone, and winning, one is their captive". According to Machiavelli, a price should always be prepared for war since war is "the sole art that belongs to him who rules".
