A strong national government is needed for a more stable economic growth. National power increased during the great depression because the government had to try to relieve some of the nations' national debt. The power shifted back to state power during the Reagan administration because Ronald Reagan believed that government is not the solution of our problem, the government is the problem. Therefore he cut back on categorical grants, replacing them with fewer, more flexible block grants. I believe the national government should have their input and power on educational problems and opportunities, such as regulating tuitions and fees.
I commented on Jordan Chambers, Kasandra Morgan, and Meagan Zientara.
The government has never really been a good thing. It is for laws and regulations. However, when it comes to education they have done virtually NOTHING to help education. They only fund 10 percent of education and they pass things like the No Child Left Behind Act that left many children behind. How is that fair to the citizens of the United States?
