Vince Roberts runs a vintage record shop in the University district. His shop sells 45s, LPs, and even old 76 RPM records. Most of his stock is usedhe buys used vinyl from customers or finds them at yard sales and discount storesbut he does sell new albums that are released on vinyl. For a couple of years, he has kept most of his inventory either in his head or in a spiral notebook he keeps behind the sale counter. But his inventory and his business have grown to where that is far from sufficient.

Vince is looking for someone to make him a database. He knows he needs to get a better handle on several aspects of his business: He needs to know the extent and condition of his inventory. He needs to know the relative value of his inventorysome records are worth a fortune; some are nearly worthless. He also needs to track where, from whom, and for how much he purchased his stock. He needs to track his sales. He often is not entirely sure how much money he has spent or how much money he has earned.

In addition he would like to allow customers to make specific requests and notify them if a requested item comes in. More generally he would like to make an email list of interested customers in order to let them know about new items of interest.

Someday, he would like to expand his business online. But he knows he needs to have everything under control before then.

US constitution

Please use the 4 concepts of federalism to decide which form of federalism would best describe these laws (these should look familiar). You may do this by listing the number and the form of federalism. Keep in mind, your options are DUAL, COOPERATIVE, CREATIVE, and NEW.
Congress passes a law, which asks states to establish a system of standardized testing for K-12 schools and to track student performance against state-mandated standards. If states do not create these exams and standards, they lose a portion of the federal education funding for which they might be eligible.
Congress creates a program to promote the prices of American agricultural products by offering low income families a subsidy to purchase food.
Congress passes a law requiring the US President to seek congressional authorization within 60 days of deploying American military personnel in foreign territory.
Congress passes a law requiring states to raise their drinking age to 21 or lose 10-25% of their federal transportation grants.
Congress passes a law that prevents the Centers for Disease Control from using any money allocated by Congress to study the health consequences of gun violence.
After you have considered what form of federalism would best describe these laws, please consider which form best suits your own political beliefs. How would you like to see national and state power divided? How much collaboration would you like to see between the state and national governments?

Budgeting at the State and Local Levels of Government

September 7, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), Law

Read Chapter 11 of Politics of the Administrative Process.

Review the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) website and review the five critical processes that are used to plan and implement the budget of the executive branch.

Write a 1,750 to 2,100-word paper that addresses each of the following questions and topics:
Identify and explain three special challenges of budgeting that state and local governments face and describe how these special challenges differ from challenges the federal government faces.
Summarize the five critical processes used to plan and implement the budget of the executive branch.
A governments budget is not simply a collection of agencies spending requests. Instead, each governments executive (whether mayor, city manager, county administrator, governor, or president) sets broad targets for overall spending and revenues. Describe how government executives begin to develop the budget.
The first step in the budgeting process is to determine the spending and revenue plans that are then combined in a single document. While the details vary around the country, the process typically includes both top-down and bottom-up methods. Compare the differences between these two budgeting methods.
Although the submission of the executive budget is an important step in the budgeting process, the budget is ultimately only a set of estimates and recommendations. In the American system of government, the executive branch proposes the budget and the legislative branch must approve taxes and spending. Examine the impact of intergovernmental relationships and collaboration on the budget process.
Once the executive and legislature agree on a budget, the challenge falls to the executive to execute the spending plan. While the importance of this stage of the budgetary process might seem obvious, the budget execution process is a delicate balance between ensuring that a programs legislative goals are served and providing adequate flexibility for administrators to do their work. Describe what role the legislature plays in the process of budget execution.

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.

Include at least three peer-reviewed references from the University Library.

Submit your assignment.

US constitution

September 7, 2020 Leave a comment MLA, Political science

Please use Article I, section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, which is known as the enumerated powers clause, to evaluate the constitutionality of the following government actions. Which powers of Congress allow the national government to take each of the actions described? Keep in mind, there may be more than one… or there may not be a power of Congress related to the action (in which case the action would be unconstitutional).
Congress passes a law, which asks states to establish a system of standardized testing for K-12 schools and to track student performance against state-mandated standards. If states do not create these exams and standards, they lose a portion of the federal education funding for which they might be eligible.
Congress creates a program to promote the prices of American agricultural products by offering low income families a subsidy to purchase food.
Congress passes a law requiring the US President to seek congressional authorization within 60 days of deploying American military personnel in foreign territory.
Congress passes a law requiring states to raise their drinking age to 21 or lose 10-25% of their federal transportation grants.
Congress passes a law that prevents the Centers for Disease Control from using any money allocated by Congress to study the health consequences of gun violence.
Congress passes a law defining who may jointly file federal taxes and claim federal tax benefits related to marriage. It also states that no state can be required to observe any definition other than the federal definition.
VERY IMPORTANT!! After addressing each of these examples, please describe any trends that you see.
