Answer:

They did not really force management, they forced regulations of the clothing industry, which included better working conditions for employees. This started after the triangle shirtwaist fire. In Theodore's Roosevelt's presidency, he implemented his "Square Deal", which has three C's: Control of corporations, Conservation, and Consumer Protection. The control of corporations part involved an attack on large corporations abusing their power through "trust busting". He enacted the Heburn act, which gave power to the Interstate regulatory commission, which increased regulations upon many large monopolies. He also gave more power to Unions, which helped push for worker's rights. You should also know that since governmental power increased after WWII, large regulation upon industry has been enacted, ever since America came out of the Gilded age. There are more examples in multiple presidencies, but I'm not writing an essay.

What were the differences between the two parties?

arsen [322]

Answer: The Democratic Republican Party and the Federalists

Explanation:

The Federalists wanted a strong federal government whereas the DRP defended states' rights.

They disagreed on central banking, Hamilton(Federalist) wanted to have a federal entity to control the issuing of money(a central bank) which Jefferson(DRP) strongly opposed since the power of the bankers to control monetary creation would endanger individual liberties.

They disagreed on their interpretation of the Constitution, someone like Marshall (Chief Justice of the USA, 1800-1835) defended a loose interpretation of the Constitution whereas Jefferson stood for a strict interpretation of the Constitution.

Letter A is the correct answer: Preschool for children.

Head Start was a program created by president Johnson in his Great Society Campaign to meet the needs of pre-schoolers from low-income families. This program provided, and still provides, early childhood education, nutrition, and health services to enhance kids' physical and emotional development and well-being.
