What is the hierarchy of the US government?
Who has authority?
The answer to the first question is quite simple: Congress. The answer to the second question is much more complex, especially when we consider the separation of powers as established in the Constitution of the United States. In the case of the presidency, we have a constitutional provision that limits the president's power to that which the Congress grants him through legislation. The most famous example is the Federalists who argued that the president could not assume dictatorial powers, such as declaring war, without the consent of the Senate. And the anti-Federalists, such as Anti-Federalist No. 44, argued that the president could not assume dictatorial powers. The argument went something like this: Congress can create a king; they cannot give him the crown.
So, while it is true that the president can declare war without the consent of the Senate, he does so on the condition that the Senate passes a declaration of war resolution. For example, the Congressional Record for September 4, 1980 contains the following entry: The Joint Resolution proposing the Declaration of War with Japan, passed by the Senate on September 2, 1945, was declared by the President on September 18, 1945. In fact, the US Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war, not the president. Now, I will be making some assertions about the Federal government and its place in our system of government, without citing any particular authority for them. I am also going to make a few assertions that are debatable, but which I think to be true.
I am going to say that the legislative branch of our federal government is the least independent of all the branches of our federal government. This is because Congress is composed of representatives from the states, not of citizens. Thus, Congress derives its power from the states, not from the people. A representative from a state may claim that he represents the citizens of that state, but this claim is just a pretense. The member of Congress represents the states and has no responsibility to the people of that state.
The executive branch of our federal government has more independence than the legislative branch. This is because the president is elected by the people of the United States. And the president is responsible to the people of the United States.
But the most independent of all the branches of the federal government is the judicial branch. The judicial branch interprets and applies the law of the land.
What are the 4 levels of government in America?
In a few days, there will be another big story of how America's big three are at it again.
But this time, it's not about banks or Wall Street, or the Federal Reserve and banks. It's about state governors, and it's all about the federal government.
And, we can all agree that there is no better place in America to learn about the 4 levels of government than America's Federal Reserve System. They are the first agency you meet when you walk in the door of this federal reserve system for any reason.
But, who are these people? What do they all do? And why do they matter so much? When an American President comes to Washington, DC, he or she will be met by the President and all of the Vice Presidents of the Federal Reserve. What, exactly, is their job? And what do they do when they arrive? This post will answer these questions about America's Federal Reserve. It will explain in layman terms who the Federal Reserve is, how they are created, how they are governed, how to find them, and what they do, as an organization, when they receive a Federal Reserve Note from the President of the United States.
And this post will discuss all the Federal Reserve banking relationships, from the Fed's member banks, including banks under the Fed's umbrella and banks that trade with them. The Federal Reserve has thousands of relationships with our nation's banking system. The relationship between America's largest bank and the Federal Reserve system is especially illuminating.
All this information comes from the Federal Reserve web site, the official website of America's federal reserve system. The Federal Reserve web site is designed to give the average citizen the same access to information about America's federal reserve system that the Federal Reserve Bank President and Federal Reserve Board members have, and it gives all of this to us, for free.
Who is the Federal Reserve? Well, the Federal Reserve is a privately owned company that has created our national banking system that has created our money, credit and currency and is the federal government's primary bank. And they have many other important public duties and responsibilities. We'll discuss this next.
What is the breakdown of government in order?
Why, the United States, of course.
I'll tell you why. The government is a necessary institution. If the government can do no good, it is an evil institution. And if it can do no evil, it is unnecessary. A government that in itself is unable to do good for itself, does the world any good. That is why I say it is a necessary institution. In the case of Germany, we have to keep the thing as we have always had it, we must keep it as we have always had it, with one difference. In our case it can never go without that difference. It can never come back. We are on the side of progress. We have seen a little more of it, I might add, than you have, in this war. Let us make a distinction between what they call the Germans and the Hun. The Germans are the race. The Huns are the name. But the Germans of today are not the Germans who fought the Kaiser. They aren't the Germans that fought the Kaiser. They're the Germans of to-day. If you know me, there's just one American in the world I'd rather take my chances against than most of the so-called Americans. As President, your predecessor said, well, he will be the last President the United States has, and he said it in a very good way. And you know, as well as I do, he said it in a very good way. We were going to make a change, but we didn't think the situation was right for making such a change. And this, as far as I'm concerned, is a situation worthy of a President's care. So I'll be glad to sit down with you.
I'm glad to know that you approve of America because I approve of you. It makes no difference whether the people approve of me or not. It is no concern of mine. It really doesn't make any difference what the people say. You can think that I am a dangerous element. Well, if that is the attitude of the people, that is their affair.
What is the chain of command for U.S. government?
Who is the President of the United States?
The Secretary of State or the Secretary of Defense, with all of their authority and accountability in those departments to the President? Or the Secretary of Homeland Security? Why do we have both a Secretary of State and a Secretary of Defense? You might think that the chain of command would be as follows: The President -> the Secretary of State -> the Secretary of Defense. The Secretary of Defense -> the Secretary of Homeland Security. But it doesn't quite work out that way. In fact, the order is reversed.
The Secretary of State is subordinate to the Secretary of Defense. It goes from the Secretary of State -> the Secretary of Defense -> the President.
The Secretary of Defense is subordinate to the Secretary of Homeland Security. It goes from the Secretary of Defense -> the Secretary of Homeland Security -> the President.
The Secretary of Homeland Security is subordinate to the Secretary of State. The Secretary of Homeland Security is subordinate to the Secretary of Defense. In short, the chain of command of the U. Government is not: It is: The President -> the Secretary of Homeland Security -> the Secretary of Defense -> the Secretary of Homeland Security -> the Secretary of State -> the Secretary of Defense. Who is in charge of U. Military operations? The Secretary of the Navy? The Secretary of the Army? The Secretary of the Air Force?
