@everyone Daily Question 🔖
Should local government have more power or should the national government have more power?
Which powers are more appropriate for each?
national
National
The president should have total control
if the regional gov has more power than you are pretty much going to make the HRE
No u
Libtard
national
this question is too black/white
Local government since National can generate regionalism issues
That's what the world is like @Deleted User
Welcome to reality
lmao, the world is definitely not black and white
It is
Black and white
and asian¨
gg
I was being serious
but okay, turn it into a joke
Regional should have in general more power, but the national government still needs some
Local
Especially in a politically divided country like the US
Regionalism is gay
Big gay
If Cali wants to ban straws, that's on them. Don't need a federal law for that
The national govt should be the final power regarding the things it has jurisdiction over, but that should be it.
Certain issues should be belong to each domain
I think a good rule of thumb is to have things taken care of at the lowest level possible
Where to put a sidewalk? Easily a town council
National defense? Only way for it to effectively work is at the national level
A good mix I think. The two should start to see themselves as mutually dependent to create nationhood. Communities are nothing without a common national identity, and nations are nothing without communities as building blocks.
I think there should be a strong central government, but it really depends on the country
Indeed.
Oh great we got Jill Stein mixed with Adolf Hitler
