Which political ideology do you most identify with?
How would you engage with local issues if you had more control over them?
However, I think that having local governments working in tandem with state and national governments is beneficial, as a lot of the projects that cities, especially smaller cities and rural communities, want to undertake require funding that usually comes from larger governmental entities. If we were to remove the federal and state governments from the affairs of cities, or at least reduce their involvement, then there would be negative consequences. At the same time, national and state governments are not super well equipped to handle every single issue in every single city across the nation. Hence, a balance is necessary.
