Federalists believe a strong central government is better than a stronger state government with a weak central government, like that in the Articles of Confederation.
One example of the weakness of the Articles of Confederation, and of weak central governments, is the strong likelihood of state secession, as states are essentially independent entities under the Articles of Confederation.
Another example would be that the Articles of Confederation serve more as a treaty between separate states than a constitution of a unified populace. The ability of states to govern their populace without influential federal interference or regulation basically means they can do whatever they choose.
In the United States the governments makes collusion illegal with antitrust laws because monopolies reduce economic efficiency.
Colombia rejected the U.S. offer to build a canal through Panama.
<u>Copper....................</u>
Because as you can see the options: California, New York, Florida and Texas are big states and are overpopulated that's probably why a candidate spend a lot of time and money campaigning there.
I hope this helps!
