Franklin D. Roosevelt, in his New Deal, made one of the most popular social programs to help the elderly. This is called the Social Security Administration.

The Social Security Administration still exists today. This program provides direct financial assistance (aka money) to elderly American citizens. All American citizens pay into this system through taxes and are able to receive money from this agency once they reach a certain age. This program also results in the development of each citizen having a social security number, which is an important piece of information that allows the government to keep records of American citizens.

Who would win in a fight Alexander the Great or Julius ceaser
pentagon [3]
Hello!

I would say Julius Ceaser because he is more experienced with that. But not like Alexander, he's more about inventing things.

What forms of protest did the colonists use to oppose British policies?
vovangra [49]
<span>The colonists used nonviolent resistance. They printed many pamphlets as well (including Paine's), and much letter writing was done to England to petition for the redress of grievances. For the second question, the answer is that independence was common sense because it was the only rational course of action against an oppressive monarchy.</span>

4. In a short paragraph, describe the transition of Rome from a republic to an empire. What was the republic like, and what caus
postnew [5]

Answer:

Over a period of nearly 200 years, however, the plebeians fought for and gained power within the government.

At the heart of the Roman Republic was the Senate. The Senate advised on matters pertaining to rules governing the city and population. In the republic, members of the patrician class served as advisers to the other governing bodies of the republic. Although the Senate did not formally make laws, the prestige of its members gave the Senate great influence over Rome’s law-making bodies.

The Senate lasted as a sole governing body for the republic for only a brief time, lasting from the republic’s founding in 509 B.C.E. until 494 B.C.E., when a strike orchestrated by the plebeians resulted in the establishment of the Concilium Plebis, or the Councilof the Plebs. This gave the plebeians a voice in the government. As a result, new legislative, or law-making, bodies of the Roman Republic were formed. Called assemblies, these legislative bodies shared power in the following ways:

           Comitia Centuriata — This body decided about war, passed laws, elected magistrates (consuls, praetors, and censors), considered appeals of capital convictions, and conducted foreign relations.

           Concilium Plebis — This body elected its own officials and formulated decrees for observance by the plebeian class; in 287 B.C.E., it gained the power to make all decrees binding for the entire Roman community.

           Comitia Tributa — The tribal assemblies, open to all citizens (who only could be free, adult males), elected minor officials, approved legislative decisions often on local matters, and could wield judicial powers but could only levy fines rather than administer punishment.

Leading the republic were two consuls who were elected by legislative assemblies. They served for one year, presided over the Roman Senate, and commanded the Roman military. Though their power was somewhat limited by the establishment of other magistrate positions, the consuls were effectively the heads of state.
