1. If you could change the size of the US to make it into a government that you think would be best for its citizens, which would you pick?

Global Government: A World Government aimed at replicating something akin to the Federation from Start Trek. The US would just be one representative within this.
-
Continent-sized Government composed of several nations: Think continent-sized governments like the European Union but with more central authority. US would be one representative in this.
-
National Government composed of several states: Think the US as it is today
-
Regional Governments: Say the US broke up into regional governments -- Deep South, Midwest, West Coast, New England, etc.

State Governments: All the states becomes their own sovereign nations.

Local Government: All the states themselves would be fragmented into county-sized countries.0

City state governments: Same as local government, except that cities with over 100,000 people becomes their own city-states.0

2. If you had to choose one over the other, what would you choose?

Equality even if its unfair -- treating everyone equally. [ex. Hiring a wheelchair bound employee equally with a non-handicapped employee, although the handicap person will have to go up a 20 steps to work.]]
-
Fairness even if its unequal -- giving everyone what they need to succeed. [ex. Hiring the above equally, but also providing a wheelchair ramp for the one handicapped employee so they can get into the building.]
