how do I get people to stop farming my questions and answer? I've asked the same question about 12 times now and people either ignored it when it wasn't worth enough or farmed it when it was worth 60-100 points, I've lost around 800-900 points doing this, can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Well the main mistake was repeatedly asking the question. But there is a choice to lower the number of points you give to the people that answer per question- so if you want to ask again, maybe try lowering the points to at least 5 or a maximum of 10 ??

the statement that best explains why the tenth amendment reserves some rights and powers to states is that the framers believed in the principle of federalism. this principle says that some powers are in the hands of a centralized national government, while others are reserved for the governments of several states.
