PARRAINGO

The scenarios described show that the United States follows the principles of:

  • F. Limited government
  • G. Federalism

Limited government means that the actions of the government have to be dictated by its Constitution. The Texan Senate can charge the tax they charge because they have this power as granted to them by the Constitution of Texas.

Federalism implies that there are different levels of government in the United States with the two main levels being Federal and State. Both of these have separate powers which is why both were able to impose taxes on gasoline.

In conclusion, both limited government and federalism are on show here.
