The United States has both a central, national government and state government.?

Question

This arrangement is called a:
(A) Federal government
(B)Separation of powers
(C)Writ of habeas corpus

Answer 1

(a),and I think the central and national governments are the same thing.

Answer 2

The US system has federal, state and local governments. The separation of powers is a different and unrelated policy. It speaks to the tri-cameral system in place at the federal level: judicial (court), executive (president) and legislative (congress).

Habeas Corpus: Lat. "you have the body" Prisoners often seek release by filing a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. (http://www.lectlaw.com/def/h001.htm)

Answer 3

The US wa a Federal republic before the 17th Amendment.
Until that time States appointed thier Senators, that meant the Senate represented the State Governments and the House represented the people.

Answer 4

That would happen to be (B) You are refering to the " Seperation of Powers" the Founders thought that it would be important for the power structure of the government to start at the people & work its way up.That would mean that the people have the most powers & the policitains would have the least.

However our "Leaders" over the past 100 years or so have tried to change that. They've almost succeded. Which is the scary thing.

Have a good day.

Answer 5

The United States government has propped up so many dictatorships that killed millions of civilians because 100% of elected Democrats have always demanded we do so. Yes, it really IS that simple.

Answer 6

The U.S. government is a federalist government.Contrary to popular opinion,it is NOT a democracy. The various states governments are subordinate to the federal government.

Answer 7

B and C are wrong but A is only partly right. We have a form of federal/state governance.

Answer 8

a.
