Answer:This is most consistent with INNOVATION form of adaptation in Merton’s theory of strain

Explanation:

Robert Merton focused on explaining why people tend to commit to deviant behavior within society and he opposed the other theorists who believed that it is derived by individual motives. Merton argued with these theorists by suggesting that some people feel that the only way to adjust in a normal way within society is to turn to criminal activities to alleviate their critical situation. He referred into anomie or strain theory , anomie which state that

due to confusion of what is happening in one's life and how hard they find it to achieve certain goals in a normal way they will resort to criminal activities.

The first way is to conform to society which means accept what ever is defined by society by pursuing success only in the ways acceptable within society such as education and earning money through a job.

The second reaction is innovation , this refers mostly to criminal act these are people who still believe they must pursue success just they innovate their own ways to pursue that success. They turn to deviant behavior because they want to achieve the success expected from them just that they use deviant innovations.

Such as the student above , he want to do well in school hence he innovate cheating as a way to help him achieve this goal.

Why federal government more expensive than unitary government

Lostsunrise [7]

It isn’t. (well, it isn’t supposed to be)

But then again, in the US we no longer have a Federal Government, but a pseudo Federal Government, that acts like, and is treated like, a unitarian government.

Over the last 80 to 100 years, and especially in the last 50, the separation between State and Federal duties, has all but been eliminated by Progressive ideology.

The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected.

The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.Federalist No 45

Because of the corruption of the Commerce Clause in Wickard v Filburn, and the General Welfare Clause, in Helvering v Davis, the Federal Government is now involved in the objects, that were supposed to be left to the States, and this has caused its budget to balloon out of control.
