Nataliya [291]3 years ago

Answer:

We have limited meritocracy only

Explanation:

Meritocracy is a system where people are awarded benefits based on their merits, as opposed to their background or financial situation. Talent, effort and achievement are factors contributing to a person's success, and advancement in such a system is based on performance.

The American dream is based on meritocracy and many people believe in it. Some skeptics, forever, argue that merit is not enough today to determine a person's success. Big corporation can choose people they want to employ and the recruitment process is not always fair. Wealthy people can buy access to universities for their kids, denying others the chance to get in. Money and heredity play a more important role in a person's career advancement that their merits only, they say.

If you want to know how many people serve on a city’s governing body, which document do you need to consult?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

the city's home-rule charter

Explanation:

The home rule charter will provide all the information regarding the responsibilities that actually given to the government compared to the responsibilities that can be taken on by the local people.
