Reason for foreign embargo act failure

History
1 answer:
lana [24]3 years ago
7 0
Story time! Ok here is the reason. It was hurting America rather than its intended targets, Britain and France. In March 1809, Congress repealed the Embargo Act of 1807. Jefferson signed the repeal shortly before he left office. The Embargo Act was replaced by the Non-Intercourse Act, which prohibited trade with only Britain and France.

Which of these was a contributing factor to the conflict between England and the American Colonists?
dusya [7]

The basic cause of the growth of conflict was tension between the British need for revenues and the American desire for independence. Before the French and Indian War, the American colonies had been left more or less to themselves. During this period, they got used to having relative autonomy and came to see it as a right. At the same time, the colonies were increasing in population and economic strength and becoming less dependent on the mother country.

After the war, the British needed funds to pay for the war and other costs of empire. They felt the Americans should help to pay so they imposed taxes and tried to increase British control of the colonies to ensure smooth flow of revenues. This need came into conflict with the expectations the colonists had built over the years.

Surveys and interviews differ in which important way?
trapecia [35]
Interviews are in person, therefore there may be interviewer and interviewee bias in regard to the questions being asked.  Only so many interviews can take place during any given period of time.  Surveys eliminate interviewer and interviewee biases.  And surveys can reach a large majority of people.  However, surveys are only good if they are actually returned. 

Hope this helps!  :)
