Answer:One reason for the ongoing negotiation over the balance of power between states and the federal government is their exclusive and concurrent powers. Exclusive powers are those powers reserved to the federal government or the states. Concurrent powers are powers shared by the federal government and the states.
Concurrent powers are:
- Taxation
- Lawmaking and enforcement
- Chartering banks and corporations
- Taking land for public use (eminent domain)
- Establishing courts
- Borrowing money
