1 answer:

7 0

One of the major inequalities that exist in the United States in the wealth gap. There is a distinct difference between the incomes of the wealthiest Americans (Top 1%) and the poorest Americans. Much of this can be attributed to the concentration of wealth in the hands of the wealthy through access to jobs, education, investments and global markets. At the same time, the poorest citizens lack access to opportunity, jobs, education, investments and the opportunity to improve their situations. The solution is to provide more avenues for the equal redistribution of wealth.

What issue was addressed by the three-fifths compromise?A) How the slave population would be counted.B) How to regulate trade wi

DaniilM [7]

Your answer would be A) How the slave population would be counted. During the time, there was a big debate on whether or not the slaves in the U.S should be counted towards the whole population of the United States when it comes to voting. People wanted a proper number, or representation, of the amount of people in the U.S that voted. The free men that lived in the U.S has every right to vote, but whenever a Slave votes, their votes would count as only 3/5 of a person. That's where the three-fifths compromise comes from, it decided that slaves could only be 3/5 of a person, meaning that their vote will count as 3/5, but not 1 whole. This means that the slaves who vote don't represent a whole person, and is only partially voting. This made the voting numbers very difficult and inaccurate because a person who's voting can't be only 3/5 of a person. In order for the votes to be more accurate, people believed that everyone, even slaves, should be one whole vote, not 3/5 of a vote.
