The right answer is A: Governmental laws, supported by Nativists, limited the number of immigrants coming into the US. This political cartoon, which appeared in <em>The Literary Digest</em> in 1921, shows a funnel extended across the Atlantic Ocean, with its wide opening in the European side, overflowed with emigrants, and its small opening in the American side, where Uncle Sam, holding a tag that reads "gate" with a "3%" tag attached to it, is allowing just a few of them to enter the country. The imagery, as well as the title of the cartoon ("The Only Way to Handle It"), are a direct reference to the Emergency Quota Act of 1921, which limited the annual number of immigrants admitted into the United States from any country to 3% of the number of residents from those countries that were already living in the U.S. as per the census of 1910.

Why would people be enslaved? and why would someone enslave another?​
Stels [109]

Answer: Many reasons. Most of them terrible.

But possibly for the identical reason that a decent parent who is totally against penalty would be willing to do and use it if their child keeps mindlessly walking into oncoming traffic (regardless of what number times they tried other methods to prevent them from doing it).

Sometimes you'll be able to keep your principals and morals… and stick out the dead kid. otherwise you can do whatever is important to prevent them from killing themselves and others… whether or not it means becoming a tyrant and a dictator in their eyes and therefore the eyes of others. whether or not it means going against your own core beliefs.
