1 answer:

8 0

Governments are created BY the people FOR the people, according to the Declaration of Independence. When a government fails to serve its people, the people have the right to change it.

"That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

This basically states that when a government abuses its power over its people, it no longer has the right to rule, and the people have the right to establish a new government that will keep them safe and ensure their happiness.

What was one of the factors for the decrease in demand for coal?

poizon [28]

Answer:

(B) “Production and demand decreased with increased oil usage”

This was one of the factors for the decrease in demand for coal.

Explanation:

In 1930s, during the Great Depression period, the market saw a massive decline in the production of coal and a small steady increase in that of oil. One of the major reasons was the availability and price of oil and other natural fuels. The supply rate was higher than the demand rate which kept the prices of oil and other natural fuels low. Cost of mining and producing coal was very high. Lower prices and increased production of oil helped the producers to gain profit. This is one of the factors that helped oil to succeed ahead of coal.
