Answer:

house refers to the Union  and what causes  the division was between the opponents and advocates of slavery

Explanation:

Lincoln felt that the ideals of freedom for all and the institution of slavery could not coexist morally, socially, or legally under one nation. Slavery must ultimately be universally accepted or universally denied.

Lincoln’s saying that there is no compromise You have got to be on one side or the other.’ In effect, he’s saying, ‘I’m on the side of freedom and  Stephen Douglas is on the side of slavery

Some interpreted the statement that Lincoln was actually calling for a civil war instead he meant  that a part of the country cannot be half free and the other totally free

Drag and drop each description to the policy it matches.
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

laissez-faire - supported lack of government intervention in business affairs

Interstate Commerce Act - regulated railroads

Sherman Anti-Trust Act - banned business practices that supported monopolies

Explanation:

Laissez-faire refers to an economic system from the 18th century that was opposing any government intervention in business affairs. In this system, the individual is the center of the society who has the right to freedom; therefore, the government should not be involved in the economy, because of the natural order that ruled the world.

Interstate Commerce Act was adopted in the U.S. in 1887 as a federal law that regulated the railroad industry. This Act fought for the adjustment of railroad rates, in order to make it reasonable and just. However, the government did not have the power to establish specific rates.

Sherman Anti-Trust Act was brought in the U.S. in 1890, as an antitrust law that banned business practices that supported monopolies. The Sherman Anti-Trust Act was designed to help workers and smaller businessmen by providing them better conditions and encouraging competition.
