Why were the townshend duties repealed?

History

stellarik [79]3 years ago
8 0
The Townshend Duties were implemented by the British government on the American colonists as a means of generating revenue so that they can pay the salaries of British governors. This tax, like many others implemented by the British government, did not sit well with the colonists due to their lack of representation in the legislature. As a result, American colonists boycotted (refused to buy) products that were taxed thanks to the Townshend Act.

This resulted in the decreased British trade with the colonists. This decrease in trade leads the government to repeal the Townshend duties.

Structural unemployment is more persistent in france than in the united states because:
nordsb [41]
<span>Employees in France have less motivating force to rapidly look for another position when they are out of a current job position since their joblessness benefits are significantly higher. The mentality is simple "who wants to look for another job when fired when you can get enough money to take care of your daily needs even as an unemployed person with unemployment benefits".Because of this, the government of France does everything it can with regard to labor to make sure that everything is balanced.</span>

What was true about Jackie Robinson?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

(C) He suffered bad treatment but led the way for others.

Explanation:

Jackie Robinson was the first African American baseball player who played in the modern era Major League Baseball (MLB). Robinson first played in MLB on April 1947, with the Brooklyn Dodgers team, which is a feat considering the racism that was happening to black baseball players at the time.  

In 1945, the Boston Red Sox baseball club deliberately conducted trials for black players including Robinson just to embarrass them. When Robinson had managed to join the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1946, he still had to dispute with a teammate and also an opponent who refused to play against him. Despite much pressure, Robinson remained focused on his playing, which culminates in his win for the MLB Rookie of the Year Award in 1947 alongside becoming an all-star for 6 seasons in a row from 1949 to 1954.
