"Stamp Act”. This act imposes direct taxes from the colonies of Great
Britain. The colonists choose not to buy good from the Britain. The business

The Lincoln-Douglas debates took place in 1858, Illinois. Abraham Lincoln challenged Stephen Douglas for a seat in the senate from Illinois. Douglas, nicknamed "The Little Giant," was a Democrat and Senator at the time since elected in 1847. He was a significant force behind the Compromise of 1850 and the Kansas-Nebraska <span>Act; both which included the idea of "popular sovereignty." Douglas was a strong believer in this doctrine, which said that the people of the territories should choose whether they wanted slavery or not. On the other side was Abraham Lincoln; a Republican who was unknown nationally until these debates. Lincoln was opposed to the expansion of slavery; he believed it should be restricted and not permitted in the new territories. He felt slavery was morally incorrect, and in his "house-divided" speech explained that the union could not survive forever as half free and half slave. Lincoln hoped for a nation without slavery eventually. Their clear, clashing viewpoints on slavery caused it to be the main issue throughout the debates. The debates took place between August and October, 1858, in seven different cities in Illinois: Ottawa, Freeport, Jonesboro, Charleston, Galesburg, Quincy, and Alton.</span>

Answer:
1. What level of government do you think should be in charge of security from foreign enemies?
Federal.
The Federal government should be in charge because defense from foreign threats needs to be coordinated on a national level to be effective. If each state, or worse, city, is allowed to implement its own defense strategy, the strategy as a whole would probably be extremely uncoordinated and ineffective.
2. What level of government should you depend on for sanitation in your neighborhood?
Local
There are thousands of neighborhoods in the United States and it would be extremely difficult for officials at the federal level to implement an effective cleaning policy for each one of them. Besides, local politicians know their neighborhoods better.
3. Are there any jobs that you think should be switched among federal, state, and local governments? Why?
Perhaps the Housing department should be abolished at the federal level, and be split among several state or local offices. Housing needs are likely to be better known by local politicians than by federal politicians, and the building approving process could be streamlined this way too.
