In 1787 some of the leading founding fathers signed the Constitution with the vision that smaller local and state politics would lead the way in decision making. There was a belief among many of the founders that local politics would never be more powerful than national politics.

disasters requires a collaborative effort. Disasters always occur at the local level.
