"السلطات المفوضة من قبل الدستور المقترح للحكومة الفيدرالية قليلة ومحددة."
— James Madison
Simplified Meaning:
The quote means that the Constitution gives only a small number of specific powers to the federal government. Imagine you hire a handyman to fix things in your house. You only ask him to fix the sink and paint the wall, nothing more. Similarly, the federal government is only allowed to handle certain tasks, like managing the army and making treaties, and cannot do whatever it wants. Most other responsibilities, like education and local laws, are left to individual states. By keeping the federal government's power limited, it ensures that local communities have more control over their own affairs. This way, decisions can be better tailored to the needs of different areas. If you are running a small business, you wouldn't want someone else to dictate every single decision; you'd want to have the freedom to make choices that best suit your situation.
