Answer 1

Federalism works for better or for worse. Things not regulated by the federal government are regulated by the local state governments. This can lead to problems like when states voted to have slavery and the federal government couldn't do anything about it. Sometimes federalism helps against discrimination like banning slavery or similar things, sometimes they take a long time and are not helpful.
