Conventionally, each state receives in the electoral collage THE NUMBER OF ELECTOR THAT IS EQUAL  TO THE TOTAL NUMBER OF SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES IT HAS.
An exception is Washington DC, which always has the same number of electors as that of the state that has the least population of people in US.

Correct answer:  The number of electors each state gets equals the total number of members it has in Congress.

Explanation/detail:

Here's what the National Archives says concerning how Electoral College delegates are assigned: <em>Electoral votes are allocated among the states based on the Census. Every state is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its members in the U. S. House of Representatives.</em>

So the number of electoral votes each state gets (of the 538 total electoral votes) is recalculated every ten years, based on the most recent US Census data.

In the long term, what economic policy is born out of commodification
Artemon [7]

Answer:

capitalism.

Explanation:

Commodification can be defined as the transformation of something into some good or service that can generate value for an individual and generate profit through its commercialization.

In the long run, commodification has instituted capitalist economic policy on the basis that capitalism is the generation of profits.

A capitalist system works by operating private properties of commerce and industry without state interference so that they can transform something into goods to be sold on the market and accumulate profits.

Individuals have needs that are met by the economy in the form of products and services, which feed the market and the capitalist system is strategically taking advantage to increasingly institute the commodification that will make the system achieve the main objective of wealth accumulation.
