Federalism is the idea of division of power between central and state governments (Madison Document A). In a compound government both the state and central governments must approve on the subject at hand for it too go into effect (Document A). Therefore not only one side is heard and can be made to help the people. Both governments share the powers to tax, borrow money, set up courts, make laws, and enforce laws. This provides for double security to the people because you have two different governments looking over these important powers making sure they are not misused. Federalism guards against tyranny because two separate governments are watching to make sure that the other does not become corrupt with its powers and the approval of both governments is needed to approve on matters (Document A). The state and central government are one compound government but two different distinct governments with equal…

By separating the powers between a central government and state governments, the constitution benefits the people by giving them a measure of self-government closer to home. Powers given to the States included holding their own elections, establishing their own schools, and passing marriage and divorce laws . This provided the people with a “double security”, meaning that along with being able to govern laws directly related to life within each state, they would be able to wield a certain measure of power over the central government as well . This compound system of government is known as federalism and prevented either the people or the executive government from gaining too much power over the other .…

American federalism offers a solution to fears that the people will only be ruled by majorities from different regions that contained different interests and values. In the past America was run by the Articles of Confederation but it was not strong enough to hold the nation together. Under the loose Articles of Confederation, the national and state government was unable to maintain order. After the Revolution, Americans mounted debt from purchasing goods from other countries. To solve this problem the states would tax their citizens and this caused many people to go into bankruptcy. When Shay’s Rebellion happened people started realizing that by having a less powerful national government, it created many problems within the states and it also demonstrated the importance to maintain domestic order. The framers of the constitution created a federal government that replaced the weak confederation with a more powerful national government.…
The structures and protections of the US Constitution have a great deal to do with “the good life”. I believe (parts of) the Constitution was written to protect our wealth and keep the ongoing struggle to become rich a reality for all and is also an essential part of the government during its early stages as well as today.…
In conclusion Federalism is better for the government than Anti-Federalism because we have a strong Constitution, and we are trying to create a government that will not be able to make decisions without the consent of our governed peoples, and a government that will be able to use their powers to balance the powers of other branches of the government.…

The federalist believed that the current system of government could be improved. Strengthening the central government would help protect the government from tyranny.

The federalist papers written by James Madison, proposes logical suggestions for the creation of a government, that fits the need of the nation. Federalist paper 10 primarily concerns with the harmful effects of factions.(Madison James,”The federalist no.10” .1787, A21)A faction is a group with a distinct political interests.(Wilson, James Q. and Dilulio, John J. “the essentials American Government, institutions and policies”, 12th edition, page 32) Factions can be compromised by a majority or minority of people, aiming for a common goal.
