Who did Carnegie believe held the power in the US in 1889
sdas [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

November 25, 1835 – August 11, 1919) was a Scottish-American industrialist and philanthropist. Carnegie led the expansion of the American steel industry in the late 19th century and became one of the richest Americans in history.[6] He became a leading philanthropist in the United States and in the British Empire. During the last 18 years of his life, he gave away $350 million (conservatively $65 billion in 2019 dollars, based on percentage of GDP) to charities, foundations, and universities – almost 90 percent of his fortune.[7] His 1889 article proclaiming "The Gospel of Wealth" called on the rich to use their wealth to improve society, and stimulated a wave of philanthropy.

Carnegie was born in Dunfermline, Scotland, and emigrated to the United States with his parents in 1848 at age 12. Carnegie started work as a telegrapher, and by the 1860s had investments in railroads, railroad sleeping cars, bridges, and oil derricks. He accumulated further wealth as a bond salesman, raising money for American enterprise in Europe. He built Pittsburgh's Carnegie Steel Company, which he sold to J. P. Morgan in 1901 for $303,450,000.[8] It became the U.S. Steel Corporation. After selling Carnegie Steel, he surpassed John D. Rockefeller as the richest American for the next several years.

Carnegie devoted the remainder of his life to large-scale philanthropy, with special emphasis on local libraries, world peace, education, and scientific research. With the fortune he made from business, he built Carnegie Hall in New York, NY, and the Peace Palace and founded the Carnegie Corporation of New York, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Carnegie Institution for Science, Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland, Carnegie Hero Fund, Carnegie Mellon University, and the Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh, among others.

Black claims at the end of the dissent, as a result of the court's decision, the court will:
dmitriy555 [2]
Justice Black, in the landmark case, ruled that students are entitled to exercise their constitutional rights, even while in school. He decided to allow the Tinkers to wear their armbands as a symbol of protest against the Vietnam conflict. Black ruled that the wearing of the armbands would not interfere with the day to day running of the school. Justice Black also noted that school officials did not prohibit the wearing of any other political symbols by students. At the end of his ruling, Justice Black acknowledged that while what gets said by students cannot be regulated, it is a myth to believe that a person has a constitutional right to say what he wants to, when he wants to, and where he wants to.
