The case was Munn v. Illinois.

Munn v. Illinois of 1876 was Supreme Court decision in which the Court upheld the power of states governments to regulate private businesses that effect 'the common good ' ( the public well-being ).

The National Grange, an association of farmers, complained that the Chicago grain warehouse Munn and Scott set maximum rates that a company could charge for storage and transport of agricultural products.

The Supreme Court ruled that because grain storage facilities were devoted to public use, their rates were subjects to public regulation.

This case was a watershed in the struggle for public regulation of private businesses. The government's power to regulate private enterprises was however sharply curtailed by other court decisions later on.

Determine whether the following effects of the American Revolution were political or economic. Britain acknowledged the independ

Nataly [62]

"Britain acknowledged the independence of the United States" is a political effect. This meant, that the British Empire would not have any interference in the public policy of the territories of the newly formed country.

"Countries that participated in war agreed to repay debts to one another" is an economic effect. The monetary compensation for the effects of war would bring affect the budget of the newly formed country. This was an important issue, as the Continental Congress had issues collecting taxes from the states during the war and had to issue bonds. It would take time for the country to recover economically.

"The war opened up discussion about racial equality" is a political effect. This discussion was the first in a series of events that would lead up to the Civil War between the Union and the Confederate States".

Why was there so little resistance in the war from the German people?

serious [3.7K]

During the war, be it the World War I or World War II, there was very little resistance among the German people about waging war. This might have came as a surprise for the other countries, and they also thought that the Germans are all hardline nationalist, but that was not the prime reason. The Germans were living in terrible conditions. The was lot of poverty, the job opportunities were not the best, the economy in terrible condition, and socially the country was in a dire situation. The German politicians used this desperation of the people, so they easily managed to convince them that the war would solve their problems. The people didn't had much to lose, so they went into war without thinking a lot, and seeing their economy and country becoming stronger, it seemed justifiable.
