The_Framework_Of_Government

The Framework Of Government The Framework of Government The government of the United States is based on the principal of Constitutional supremacy. That is, the constitution is the highest law in the country. Any laws passed anywhere in the country must agree with what is written the constitution. [82-83] The constitution provides for the United States to have a federal system of government. In this plan, lawmaking powers are divided between two levels of government - the state government and the federal government. The duties of government are then shared between these two levels. The powers that belong solely to the federal government are listed in the constitution. These powers are called the delegated, or expressed powers. This is because they are “expressed” - written into - the constitution. They include the power to regulate trade powers, government, states, constitution, federal, state, shared, power, written, united, two, regulate, levels, laws, however, governments, given, expressed, country, called, building, between, whatever, war, under, trade, through, three, tenth, tax, take, system, supremacy, sometimes, solely
