What Are States' Rights?
The Civil War<em> is believed by most to be caused because of the issue of slavery. Some, however, believe that it was actually about states' rights, or the rights of states to govern themselves outside of the control of the federal government. Whenever states' rights arguments are made, they all eventually come back to slavery. States' rights were simply a convenient political debate to fit the slavery argument into.

<em>The American Civil War was, ultimately, about one thing: slavery. However, other issues found their way into the debate as well. Arguably the most significant of these was the issue of states' rights. The idea of states' rights, at its most basic level, is the idea that the states that make up the United States of America should have individual rights to work as their own independent governments beyond the control of the national government. For example, while most states in the U.S. have a minimum driving age of sixteen years, it is actually up to each individual state to decide. In South Dakota, for instance, the driving age is actually fourteen. This is generally believed to be due to the large farming population that requires the help of young teens on family farms, often requiring that these teens drive trucks or tractors to tend to crops and livestock, but there is no legislative evidence for this belief. In New Jersey, the minimum driving age is seventeen, the highest in the country. There have been efforts in the past decades to impose a national law for the driving similar to the national drinking age in 1985, but these efforts have not been successful as of 2017.</em>

Pike and his party faced many hardships: hostile tribes, bewildering canyons, sub-zero temperatures, and near-starvation. Looking to get their bearings in Colorado, they attempted, unsuccessfully, to summit the mountain now known as Pike's Peak.
I'll answer this question with some of my general knowledge. Let me know if I helped you or not.
I believe officials were opposed to labor unions when they began to acknowledge how much of a threat it would be to manufacturing and other sorts of jobs. Labor Unions are similar to going on strike, or protesting something. With protesting laborers, businesses and factories would drop in revenue and would become unproductive. They would end up having to increase pay and improve working conditions to earn their workers back. This is equivalent to the loss of income for businesses.
I believe times changed in the 1930 because the American economy was extremely poor. The 1930's was the time of The Great Depression, multiple stock market crashes, and The Dust Bowl. These events hit hard and poverty became <em>wide spread. </em>
Hope I answered your question :)
