The passage of the Constitution was not an easy task, many points were discussed on the Convention so all States were on board with the new Constitution. One of the main points of discussion was how each state would be represented under the Constitution. 

The Connecticut Compromise solved the problem by creating a bicameral legislature, with proportional representation of the states in the lower house and the upper house the states would be represented equally among the states.

But the larger states did not agree with the fact that the upper house could originate revenue bills since they would be equally represented as the smaller states. Benjamin Franklin’s role was very important since he modified the original proposal and required that revenue bills would originate in the house, where the larger states would have more influence.

Rawls, thinks that people are justified in owning<br> the objects and wealth that they do when
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Rawls, thinks that people are justified in owning the objects and wealth they have when there are fair opportunities for any citizen within a region to own as well.

Explanation:

John Rawls was a philosopher and author of An Theory of Justice, Political Liberalism and Peoples' Law. He argued that the unequal distribution of income in a country and the social inequality caused by that distribution was something extremely wrong and that led nations to social failure.

He had arguments that showed that it was not fair that only a part of the population could possess goods and wealth. This would only be justified in a population where everyone had the same socioeconomic opportunities to own material goods of wealth, value and luxury.
