Federalism Assignment: Dividing Governmental Power
Federalism is a far better system than other countries have because, as Professor Charles Fried of Harvard Law School explained, it allows people to "vote with their feet". If, for example, the people of Vermont want to outlaw french frieds, and the courts say that's okay, then people who want french fries can go to New Hampshire or Massachusetts to get them. If, on the other hand, the federal government outlaws french fries, you need to leave the country.
So your assignment it to (1) first determine if you think it would be better to have a federal speed limit or a state-by-state speed limit. As it is now, each state has various speed limits for the interstate, state, county, local, and residential roads in their respective states. Should there be a federal speed limit in each of these areas (interstate, state, county, local, and residential) so that there will be no confusion when crossing from one state to another? (2) Second come up with advantages for a federal speed limit. (3) Third, list advantages for individual state speed limits.
(1) Your opinion of for federal or state
(2) List at least 4 reasons for the Federal speed limit.
(3) List at least 4 reasons for Individual State speed limits
Be sure to give four advantages of both (it's not either or).
