Answer to Question 1

taxes

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1, Define discretion as the ability of federal bureaucrats to make choices concerning the best way to implement congressional or presidential intentions.
2, Explain that agencies are often granted broad discretion, especially when Congress passes an unclearlaw.
3, Note that bureaucrats can thwart the will of the president and Congress.
4, Explain how bureaucratic discretion may serve public interest, especially in the case of regulatory commissions that exercise authority independently of the president and Congress. These agencies, such as the Federal Reserve Board, may need to be insulated from political pressure to make balanced or far-sighted decisions.
5, Take a position on the appropriate extent of bureaucratic discretion in light of these competing perspectives.
