Because of its ever-changing, dynamic nature, federalism has transformed and evolved in many different ways. Supreme Court rulings and new legislation can always flip the power play between the state and federal governments. For example, meant to be interpreted to execute enumerated powers, the ruling of the Necessary and Proper Clause by Justice Marshall gave Congress far more powers than those stated in the Constitution. Policies such as the New Deal allowed the federal government’s power to greatly expand. And with a national government that shares power with all of the state governments, conflict between the parties prevents and adds hostility to the creation of national legislation. This occurs because there would not be a single set of attitudes on issues; instead, the United States has fifty-one policies, which then leads to clashing legislation and inability to get politics accomplished. This flawed design contributed to the poor execution of Constitutional
