Brums [2.3K]

Based on the article, I think that the benefits created through public programs outweigh their expenses.

<h3>What are public programs?</h3>

Public programs are assistance programs created by governments at different levels to assuage the humanitarian needs of society, especially the poor and needy.

For example, the federal government provides Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, Supplemental Security Income, and the Earned Income Credit.

Other examples of public programs by the federal government include Medicaid, Food Stamps, and housing assistance.

Thus, when weighed on humanitarian grounds, the benefits created through public programs outweigh their expenses.

What resulted from the Supreme Court’s ruling in the Scott v. Sandford case?
Mashcka [7]

Answer: A. The abolitionist movement grew stronger.

<em>Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857)</em> was a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court. It held that black people whose ancestors were imported into the U.S., whether enslaved of free, could not be American citizens. Therefore, they could not sue in federal court. Moreover, it ruled that the federal government had no power to regulate slavery in the territories acquired after the creation of the United States.

The decision was controversial, and greatly opposed by abolitionist groups. It strengthened the abolitionist movement and may have been a catalyst for the American Civil War.
