Final Study Guide

On the day of the final, you will answer 2 out of 3 of the following questions:

1) What is the purpose and role of local governments within the political framework of the United States?

2) How do state and local governments serve their populations differently from government at the Federal level?

3) Assume that the State of California enacted a progressive tax structure that applied to both individual income and corporate income. What values would be reflected in such a decision? What might be some of the consequences?

4) A discovery is made in the City of Dunn... the lake bed of a lake used for recreation and located near the edge of town is found to contain a large supply of unobtainium. Unobtainium is an extremely valuable industrial resource. How will you, as a city council member of the City of Dunn, propose to manage this resource?
