What is the relevance of arguments or points made by the federalist and anti federalist to contemporary events under the present government?

Anti-federalists today feel the federal government has taken on too much power.

Federalists feel they have justified by having the federal government take control when individual states could not have, (ie: September 11th, homeland security, recent economic crisis, international trade, Pearl Harbor, Cuban Missile Crisis, Stock market crash and depression, FDR and the new deal)
