Allan Bakke had been the subject of a case involving <u>“reverse discrimination” </u>during the carter administration.  

In 1978 Allan Bakke applied for admission at medical school and it was declined twice by the University of California, so Bakke filed a suit against the University arguing that he had better scores than the minority groups that were granted access.

At that time, the university had reserved a quota of 16%, as part of affirmative action program, to minority groups. Affirmative action program was designed to provide better educational and employment opportunities to those groups.

In this legal case, Bakke claimed that the use of quota based on race was unfair “reverse discrimination” as according the Civil Right Act, equal protection should be given to all citizens. The Supreme Court, in a highly controversial case, ordered that the university should admit Bakke and declared that affirmative action was constitutional but could not be used in cases of race quotas.

Please help me, I don't know what to do.
Aloiza [94]

Answer: I don’t think that wealthy people should be punished because they are making more money then others and I think that nontaxable amount should be raised. Having said that, all citizens must pay equal tax but tax percentage on some goods and services should be lower so more people could get access to them (like taxes on baby equipment that should be lower and therefore prices would be lower). Furthermore, even though with tax money from both rich and less rich persons, transportation is being financed not all of them use public transports.

The constitution fixes the problem of the articles of confederation by providing for checks and balances and separation of powers.

The separation of powers consists in the assignment of government functions to different bodies. These bodies are classified into Legislative, Executive and Judiciary.

Republic opposes tyrannical, despotic, autocratic and absolutist forms of government. In this sense, at first, the monarchy in the weak sense is not opposed to the republic in the strong sense. Republicanism is a theory about the strong sense of the republic.
