Yes. Because democracy is the tyranny of the majority. Thats why we are supposed to be a constitutional republic, that way minority rights are protected against mob rule.

Amendment 10 of the Constitution specifically states, "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor pr
FromTheMoon [43]

Correct answer:

<h2>Limited government</h2>

The 10th Amendment puts limits on the powers of the federal government.  It reserves powers for the states (and for the people themselves) any powers not specifically designated to the federal government in the United States Constitution.   Any laws and powers exercised by the states still must be in accord with what is stated in the US Constitution, however.

For some historical context, we might also consider that the original framers of the US Constitution thoughts that statements such as the 10th Amendment -- and all of the first 10 Amendments, known as the Bill of Rights -- were already inherent in the Constitution as it was written.  They had composed a constitution that intentionally placed limits on the federal government. So, stating such a limit in an amendment seemed like a repetition of what was already apparent in the Constitution itself.  As noted by the National Constitution Center, "The Constitution’s Framers thought that a bill of rights was appropriate for an unlimited government, but not for a limited one like the national government created by the Constitution. The Constitution accordingly sought to secure liberty through enumerations of powers to the government rather than through enumerations of rights to the people."

Nevertheless, to assure those who wanted the rights of the people specifically listed and protected, Amendments 1 through 10 were added to the Constitution as a Bill of Rights to affirm those protections.

1. Why might the Spanish have been upset about<br> the new borders?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The northern borderlands of the Spanish colonies are now situated in the south of the United States. This place is rather dry and desertic compared with the center of Mexico, what used to be the heart of the colonies. They didn't have the means to make it productive land and produce crops, and didn't have the workforce either. Indians living there were nomadic and offered great resistance to Spanish subjugation, the opposite from the tribes living in the centre of Mexico, sedentarian and already used to the dominance of an empire, the Aztec one.

Which of the following most accurately describes the difference between a stock exchange and an over-the-counter market?
Masteriza [31]
A stock exchange occurs in a centralized location, think Wall Street and the Stock Market. An over-the-counter market does not. Over-the-counter markets are considered less formal compared to exchanges. OTCs are less transparent and operate on fewer rules than exchanges. This can be both good and bad for those involved.
