History

The Supreme Court outlawed daily bible reading and the saying of the Lord’s Prayer in Jewish schools in 1963 because the question was whether prayers and religious practices in public schools were in violation of the Constitution’s First Amendment which forbids a government role in establishment of religion and Federal interference in individual freedom of conscience on religious issues. Justice Clark said that required religious exercises in schools were not “mitigated” by the fact that individual students may be excused “for the fact furnishes no defense to a claim of unconstitutionality under the establishment clause.” Nor is it a defense to claim that religious practices may be “relatively minor encroachments on the First Amendment,” he argued.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The answer is:

D. US troops, following orders from President Polk, claimed an area of disputed land for the United States which caused an attack by Mexico in retaliation​

Explanation:

The major cause of the war was actually  the annexation of Texas by the US in 1845. Among tensions, skirmishes and a failed diplomatic mission, president Polk ordered American troops commanded by Gen. Zachary Taylor to occupy the disputed zone between Río Nueces and Río Grande (Río Bravo for Mexicans) in January 1846. Taylor´s men were attacked by Mexican troops in April killing or injuring 16 of them. Polk claimed Mexican soldiers had attacked US troops and "shed American blood upon American soil." He requested a declaration of war. Congress overwhelmingly voted to declare war on Mexico on May 13, 1846.

Is a social and economic system that features private ownership of property and free markets
solong [7]

A market economy has several aspects that characterize it. It is very rare that all of these aspects are realized completely.

1) In this type of economy the government doesn't intervene.

2) Resources are privately owned. Goods and services are given by the individuals.

3) There has to be freedom of choice to buy and sell whatever the people want. Freedom of enterprise to start any business you want.

4) Every entrepreneur sees for himself and looks to maximize their profit. They act on self interest.

5) Competition is very important for a market economy to work. <u>In theory</u>, when there's competition the market will regulate itself preventing price and power abuses and guaranteeing the best price for the costumer.
