What is the main reason that the American public turned against monopolies

History
1 answer:
Lady bird [3.3K]3 years ago
3 0
I think because if one person held a monopoly on (let's say clothes) it provides less variety for everyone as well as essentially they get all of the revenue and smaller (family owned and such stores) businesses go out of business or bought by the bigger businesses. (Also think of the board game Monopoly, when someone owns a lot of places that cost a lot and people land on it, they pay a lot. Then someone runs out of money and has to sell the property, meaning less of a chance for them to make money and those with money now buy the available land, increasing their chances of getting money) (So essentially the rich get richer and the poor get poorer and there is a large wealth disparity)

Hope this explanation helps. If not, I could try to elaborate.

A: No, John Wilkes Booth did not plan his escape carefully. He encountered so many mishaps because he was driven by pure anger and emotion. Although he wanted to assassinate Abraham Lincoln for so long and bring other conspirators into his plan, he went through many problems with his escape and eventually died in the end by being tracked down.

Passed in 1992, the 27th Amendment prevents Congress from raising its pay during the same term. What is unusual about this amend
VashaNatasha [74]

The 27th Ammendment to the Constitution was first proposed in 1789 by the 1st Congress to the state to be ratified. It was proposed with other 10 ammendments to the Constitution but lacking the number of votes necessary, it did not pass like its others sister ammendments to become what is today known as the Bill of Rights. It took about more than 200 years until 1992, after a campaign was started by University of Texas at Austin student Joe Watson in 1982. This ammendment prohibited the increase or decrease of a congressman´s salary within a term in office. If there is to be a reduction or increment in the income perceived by a congress member, this must take effect only until the following terms office. The correct answer is D because of the immense time passage since the ammendment was proposed until it was adopted and ratified.

vova2212 [387]

Thi question is incomplete. Here´s the complete question.

The 2013 case of Windsor v. United States in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals employed ___ in holding that the Defense of Marriage Act held no legitimate state interest and thus overturned it.

Answer: intermediate scrutiny

Explanation:

In United States v. Windsor, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals confirmed the lower court's decision that Section 3 of DOMA was unconstitutional.

The court found that, since homosexuals had been historically subjected to discrimination, they could be considered as a group that falls under a "quasi-suspect classification", and therefore intermediate scrutiny could be applied.

DOMA was deemed unconstitutional under the equal protection guarantees of the Fifth Amendment because it didn´t pass that test.
