Federalism

"Federalism is the power shared and divided by the state and national government. Delegated/expressed powers are the first three Articles of the Constitution. For example, treaties, war, creating money, trades, and establishing a post office. Reserved powers are state powers; the Tenth Amendment reserves rights to the state and national government. An example would be marriage, election, and granting licenses. Concurrent powers are shared powers with the state and national government. The state and central government share powers and responsibility. For example, taxes, establishing courts, providing health care and punishing lawbreakers. Implied powers are not directly stated in the Constitution but they are given to the national government. The elastic clause is known as the necessary and proper clause. These are powers that Congress believes are necessary. The Anti-federalist opposed them because those laws could have been anything. For example, in 1789, there were only a Navy and Army force: an Air force was established once planes were used for military purposes Rights are not absolute. One way the court limits individual rights is that it allows the Legislative Branch to make laws deemed necessary to maintain security and stability."
