Secondly, I find that this project lacked oversight of a strong panel / board / committee to check the progress along with expenditures vs. budget. This was public money that was budgeted for a project and yet, there was no clear division between the payer and the decider as Rubin explains in “The Politics of Public Budgets”. As she states there are two critical characteristics of public

I chose to write about the 27th amendment, which states that members of Congress cannot increase their salary until after there has been an election of representatives. The 27th amendment is a wise policy that keeps members of Congress from misusing their power, and it is obvious that the framers who wrote the law believed people were, by nature, greedy, and therefore included a safeguard against greedy actions.

Furthermore, Schlesinger ahs argued that the checks and balances established by the CCOnstitution and acquired powers of Congress has been put into jeopardy by the ‘imperial executive’ due to the ‘assault of the Congressional power of declaring war being overrriden. It has also been seen in President Nixon’s rule, through the impoundments of funds, allocated for particular purposes by Congress.

In his New Nationalism speech Teddy Roosevelt stated, “The great special business interests too often control and corrupt the men and methods of government for

“ Our greatest task is to put people to work. This is no unsolvable problem if we face it wisely and courageously. It can be accomplished in part by direct recruiting by the government itself, treating the task as we would threat the emergency of war, but at the same time, through this employment, accomplishing greatly needed projects to stimulate and recognize the use of our national resources.”

It additionally records the capabilities expected of congressperson and delegates and directs the points of interest of the legislative process. Any member of the house can begin bills, in other to generate income; it must start up in the place of representatives. The importance of the article three is that its “provide the amount of compensation for the legislator at $600 per mount, with per diem expenses allowed” page 45. It enables each assembly of the lawmaking body to compose it possess manages and to pick the way in which to teach the individuals

We are prone to speak of the resources of this country as inexhaustible; this is not so.” This statement in the article helped me to better understand this era because that while things were changing and progressing so rapidly in the way of industrialism that there was a need for someone to step in and say hang on a minute, there is more to life than making a dollar and we have to take care of what we have or it will all be

The previous passage proves that the constitution’s ideal representative that holds some sort of power and status in government need to be educated and wealthy. To sum it up, those who are already in congress are those who decide who’ll be apart of government, and make decisions that will affect our country.

The theory behind this idea was that people with wealth had a substantial stake in the society and would not be prone to making dangerous experiments.” I chose this quote because it defined the two-sided “battle” between the federalists and anti-federalists in the formation of the bicameral government. Of course, the struggle between proportional votes in states (in the lower house) and the one vote per state (in the upper house) was the major issue of contention. Therefore, a balance between the wealthy elites in Senate would provide a barrier against the “dangerous experiments” proposed by the people or “the mob.” This “battle” was initiated to provide as a way to provide representational voting “by and for the people”, yet not without oversight by the aristocracy. These complex issues were a major part of finding a compromise in the formation of a federal government that would not overpower the states; and vice

“After the experience of the trade crisis, of being at the mercy of economic forces, now came the experience of being at the mercy of political forces, which was almost worse, since you could get used to the former and somehow do something for yourself, but there was nothing you could do about the other.”

I would have liked to have lived in the 1920’s due to all of the new opportunities that sprung up around this time. One giant part of the 1920’s was women’s multiple openings in the job and social world. Women were allowed to do so much more without being looked down upon from the general public. They even changed how their clothes looked going from the massive dresses of the past to thinner, shorter dresses. Without these women trying to change the norm that had been set for them by their grandparents then future “rebellions” such as the 1960’s would most likely never had happened.

The budget process is the most important aspect of fiscal decision making in Public Administration. Smith and Lynch (2004), argues that “Public budgeting is an activity that many people view from their own perspectives and, thus, they do not comprehend the full complexity of budgeting” (p. 34). Similar to the contextual definition of complexity in budgeting process, a classic example was the State of California’s budget impasse for the year 2010-2011. This essay examines and analyses the concerns that lead to passing a late budget in the State of California. It further goes into details regarding the reasons, resolutions, and consequences faced due to the budget Impasse.
