In Discussion 2 we will expand the topic of the US Constitution and explore the concept of federalism as we discuss the proper role and scope of government at both the federal and state/local levels of government.

To help you formulate an answer, be sure to review your Exploration for this module, and Chapter 3 of your e-text, on American Federalism.

Outcome 4

Instructions

• Consider the following:  Federalism is defined as shared government between a central government and regional units of government. Essentially, federalism is about the balance of power between the federal government and the states. When we consider issues such as the environment, health care, education, welfare, immigration, unemployment, housing, marriage definitions, etc., the debate centers around whether those responsibilities should be primarily handled by the state governments or the federal government or neither.
• Please respond to the following questions completely: Which level of government should be more responsible for providing various services and public goods to the citizens? What kinds of services should those be and why? Explain your response fully.
