Political Theory

It changes yearly to reflect the values of Ohio's citizens.

Citizens cannot pass laws merely by collecting signatures in any state I am aware of. There is a process in many states where citizens can petition to have a proposed law added to the ballot in the next election. Usually, this requires some percentage of voters to sign the petition - in a large state, this can be hundreds of thousands of voters. There are also usually procedural requirements, such as that the petition must be registered with a certain department, and the wording on the petition must be approved in advance. There may also be format requirements, and after the signatures are collected, the petition must be certified. When a petition does get through this process, it then goes on the ballot in the next election, and must receive a majority of "yes" votes in order to become a law.

Yes. Just look at the so-called "Founding Fathers".

In 1952 the judicial and public response to Truman's overeaction to the steel strike helped further define the conditions in which US presidents might or could persuasively invoke the so-called Lockean prerogative. Additionally, the case added an additional clarification to the problem of prerogative. This revived a distinction recognized in the early years of the US republic that had been blurred during the US Civil War. As with President Lincoln, Truman used the claim that his actions was an extreme emergency the country ever faced. At best this was an exaggeration. Seizure of the steel industry was indeed unconstitutional.

Duel federalism is a system of government in which both the states and the national government have their own separate spheres. However, today the American federal system is one of cooperative federalism, where powers and policies are shared between the states and national government through 1) shared costs 2) Federal guidelines and 3) Shared administration.

The death of duel federalism came about from the realization that the two spheres could not function without each other, and oftentimes overlapped. For instance, states take advantage of categorical grants (a major component of fiscal federalism), where the national government provides money for things such as education, in return for increased competitiveness (This is the No Child Left Behind Act).

Also, the lines between national and state power have blurred, and national government has become more powerful, especially in the realm of the economy through the commerce clause. For example, in Garcia v San Antonia Metro (1985), the Supreme Court found that Congress could extend the Fair Labor Standards Act, which requires employers provide minimum wage and overtime pay to employees, to state and local governments. This overturned a previous Supreme Court ruling stating that this violated the 10th amendment. In addition, Gibbons v Ogden (1824) found that the national government could regulate interstate commerce (which basically means they can regulate anything).

In short, duel federalism died because it was outdated, and cooperative federalism is much more efficient. In fact, it may be impossible to return to duel federalism today, since states would have no way of paying for education, highways, welfare, or medicare on their own.

The name 'select" committee is loose terminology and can mean more than one thing. It may refer to a committee to study or "do" only one thing specific thing. e.g.: A committee that was established to study the color red, would not trouble itself by studying the colors blue, yellow, or green - JUST red. OR - it may refer to the makeup of the persons assigned to the committee, as being sonehow special or "select" or extraordinarily endowed to take on a specific task.

In theory, by the Congressional Review Act, which authorizes Congress to review any administrative rule (but it has been used only once). Also, any administrative rule has to be based on and in substantial conformance with the law. Finally, in general, rules of administrative agencies and the decisions that are based on them are reviewable in court (to obtain such review, one has to show that one has been personally harmed by such decision/rule).

The answer to this question is ideological and thus my opinion is subject to be disagreed upon by alot of users on this site, but my personal answer is yes at some time in the future as an empire can be beneficial to America by giving it more power, influence, historical significance, as well as a hold on economic resources depending on whatever place is conquered.

No, a direct democracy could always be possible, though largely impracticable in larger states.
