I believe the answer is: B. Federal judges serve for life, and so do not need to worry about conforming to the wishes of others to be reelected.

If the federal judges is appointed everytime the president is changed, the elected federal changes would most likely a person who are picked to serve the best interest of the president in command. By making them serve for life, this situation become less likely.

Unlike State court judges, which in many States are subject to election, Federal judges are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate, and only then are appointed to the Federal bench. Federal judges remain in office as long as they want to. Federal judges are only subject to discipline for misconduct through impeachment in and by the U.S. House of Representatives and removal from office upon trial and conviction in and by the U.S. Senate.

Obviously, then, any ruling that would arise from and comprise actionable misconduct would be avoided by federal judges. Actionable misconduct does not necessarily include rulings that are alleged to be politically motivated. The U.S. Constitution defines actionable misconduct as "high crimes and misdemeanors", and there are statutes, rules, and common law which define these.

How did the growth of the railroads affect the United States?

Lelu [443]

Answer:

Of the options provided "fast, cheap railroad transportation benefited is businesses" is the correct response.

Explanation:

The railroads made it possible to ship goods without having to use the canals and rivers that transportation relied upon previously in what is today the Midwestern and south central United States. It helped to reduce the time it took to transport goods across vast distances and it helped to lower costs. The railroads made the rapid settlement of the Midwest and the West Coast possible. Factories on the East Coast also benefited from the expansion of the railway system as raw materials could be shipped in at lower prices and in greater quantities. The products they produced could also be more efficiently sent to far-off locations for sale.
