History

Answer:

  • The Anti-Federalists wanted a guarantee of protection of people's personal liberties.

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation, in place prior to the ratification of the Constitution of the United States of America, had granted stronger authority to the states.  Patrick Henry and other Anti-Federalists were concerned about too much power winding up in the hands of the federal government and its executive branch, thus allowing a small number of national elites to control the affairs of the USA.  They feared this also would diminish the rights and freedoms of individual citizens.

The Bill of Rights, laid out in the first ten amendments to the Constitution, provided some reassurance to Anti-Federalists after the fight over ratification. The US Constitution was ratified in 1788.  The Bill of Rights was created in 1789 and ratified in 1791.

Answer:

       LABOR MOVEMENT IN THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION

A labor union is a group of people within a particular job or industry that join together to fight for improved working conditions.  Throughout history, labor unions have played a vital role in the relationship between workers and owners and have helped to improve conditions for working-class people.  The labor movement first began during the time period of the Industrial Revolution, in the 19th century.  At the time, working-class people were often exploited by wealthy owners and treated horribly.  To better understand the situation facing people in the Industrial Revolution, it’s first important to understand the political and economic views of the time.  The dominant ideology of the Industrial Revolution centered on individualistic values such as classical liberalism and laissez-faire capitalism.  Both of these systems promoted the idea that the government should play as little a role as possible in the economic lives of the people.  As such, there were very few government regulations in place to protect workers and the wealthy owners were allowed to exploit them in various ways.  For example, during the Industrial Revolution, working-class people faced horrible working conditions, such as: crowded and cramped workspaces, dirty and dangerous factory and mining operations, poor levels of pay, long hours of work, and a lack of basic healthcare, education and rights.  Out of this emerged different socialist movements that focused on improving the lives and conditions for industrial workers.  For example, Marxism and utopian socialism both sought to stop the exploitation of the workers by the owners and create more balance in society.  At the same time, the idea of labor unions became popular across industrial societies.  Workers formed and used unions in order to protest for a variety of things, including: shorter hours of work, higher rates of pay, safe working conditions, basic education and healthcare.

Why did the rich give money to schools?
inysia [295]

Answer:

Reich also pointed out that when wealthy people give money to their town foundations, their tax-deductable donations stay in their own communities. The contributions enhance the schools’ success, which in turn increases the donors’ property value. In other words, the rich receive tax credits for giving money to themselves.
