This discussion board will focus on federalism and its consequences. Please respond to all of the following prompts:
1.) For this question, please reflect on the video about Hurricane Katrina in the "Disadvantages of Federalism" page. The title of the video is "Lessons of Katrina ."

Meaning, what does this video teach us about the disadvantages of federalism and the confusion that can exist between the levels of government? Please make specific references to what was presented in the video.
2.) How much power should states have over things like guns, same-sex marriage, and marijuana. Should these topics be things that states have control over or should the federal government have these powers?
