Sagot :

Strict constructionists and loose constructionists disagree most on the topic of "C.the allotment of federal and state powers," since this is the issue that Constitution is most vague about.

The correct answer is C.

Strict constructionists maintain that the Constitution must be interpreted according to what it was meant to be written, that is, literally, almost textually.

On the other hand, the loose constructionists claim that the Constitution must be interpreted broadly, and that it allows everything that is not specifically prohibited in the text to be done.

As the allotment of Federal and State powers is not clearly defined in the Constitution, it is an usual matter of discussion and disagreements between the strict constructionists and the loose constructionists.
