Answer:

     I don't think that it would be an improvement.   I think that most like being able to have a say on who is standing up for our rights at a local level. Most people have more trust in those people that are local and can better understand how local people feel.  Some changes that would occur would be that we would only have one person that would be doing most of the ruling or calling the shots for the government.  We would not have any say on those people that would be doing the governing.

     I think that the reason that they have adopted this approach is  because they want more local people to have a say in the law.  These  people have a better sense and understanding of the local and state  government issues. The national government can sometimes have a  basic attitude or a compromised agenda. I do think that this a good  idea.  I do think that most individuals would prefer that the national  government be limited on their input on such matters.  I think that the  less that the national government gets involved in our personal lives the  better.  A lot of matters are small enough that the local and state levels should be able to handle them.

    Dual federalism is the clear division of governing authority between national and state governments.  Competitive federalism is the mingled government authority, with functions overlapping the state and national governments.

    I would advise them to approach the issue of federalism by making everything equal.  They should give more discretion and power to the states because some of the things the government wants the states to do, the states do not have funding for it.

    My own political loyalties are most strongly felt for my hometown.   I think the community is what accounts for my outlook.  I like to think that I have great pride in my country.  With that, I  think that as time goes on my pride is lessening.  The strong values  that once were are no longer and that is so sad.  We as Americans used to show respect for one another and be grateful for once fought and continue to fight for our rights, but as of right now in  our society I feel that a lot of people are only out for themselves and  lack respect.  They tend to forget that these laws and rights that they  want to complain about, they wouldn’t even have a choice if it  wouldn’t be for the men and women that fought for our rights. It is a  very fine line to me on how I feel because I love this country, but I feel  that some government officials have their own agendas and are not  thinking about what is best for our country. I really think that since Trump  has taken office things have changed for the better.  I believe that  people are showing skeptical possession of the country right now.
