I believe that the most important power is the Executive power because that branch of the government creates bill and either pass or veto them. If no one were to make laws and bills the world would be chaotic and would eventually fall apart. Also that government powers takes charge in the military. Which is important because if we were to go to war we need someone to be adle to command our army.

Current Issue with Gun Control
What we want to do is limit who can buy a gun such as, someone who has had a past criminal history but a major criminal history and or a disability. There have been to many accident and or violent actions. We have had school shootings, highway shooting and even threats to people individual with guns. We need to stand up and force a more powerful law no getting rid of guns completely but limiting just who can buy them.
