Due to the flaws on Electoral College, there will always be a possibility that the winner of the popular vote may not win the presidency. This has already occurred four times and the most recent in 2000. This is because of the winner take all factor which means that any votes won by the loser of the popular vote are not replicated in the electoral vote. Like in 2008, Barack Obama won only in the 51 percent of the popular vote in Ohio but still, he won all of Ohio's electoral votes even though most of the Ohioans voted for John McCain.

The correct answer are A) high prices in China, B) production difficulties, C) the distance they had to be brought, D) taxes en route, and H) high wages for workers.

<em>The reasons why Eastern luxuries were expensive were “high prices in China, production difficulties, the distance they had to be brought, taxes en route, and high wages for workers. </em>

Eastern luxuries did not exist in Western countries. Rich people in Europe were able to pay for them. They were wealthy and could afford the high prices for luxurious things that were exclusive. The transportation cost from long distances, the risks it implied, the constant taxation in the road, the difficult and detailed production of the products and the considerable high wages for the workers that produced the luxurious things really increased the prices and only rich, noble people could afford to pay for them.
