An advocate for limited government would most likely oppose the modern American bureaucracy for which reason?
Leona [35]
I believe that the answer for this is option B. Since there is an advocate given for a limited government, this would most likely contradict the modern American bureaucracy for the reason that the shift of bureaucracy is too much that the federal power between the President to the Congress becomes imbalance.

Match each of the terms below with its definition.
juin [17]

Answer:

Absolute  advantage: The ability to produce  more cheaply.

Comparative  advantage: The existence of lower  opportunity costs than  competitors.

Specialization: The performance of a  particular task  within an economic  system.

Protectionism: The existence of barriers  to free-flowing trade.

Explanation:

The four terms that are defined above have to do with trade and the economic theories behind the different trade policies that countries employ. Protectionism is employed when countries want to avoid trade with outside countries and to lower competition with outside countries. Therefore, a country may impose tariffs that make importing goods very expensive. A country will have an absolute advantage in a product if they can make it much cheaper than another country. For example, timber products in Canada will cost less because they have an abundance of forests compared to other countries. A country may have an absolute advantage in one industry but that still may not be its comparative advantage. The country will have to weigh the trading opportunity costs are. Say that one country has no farmland but it has lots of oil. The other country has farmland and oil, but is willing to forgo trading oil in order to trade food for oil with the other country because the opportunity costs for forgoing oil are lower. Now the second country has a comparative advantage in food and the first country has a comparative advantage in oil.   David Ricardo believed that comparative advantage would lead to specialization as in countries would specialize in the products they have a comparative advantage in.

In October of 1945, the Reynolds pen company had $26,000. How much was the company earning every month soon after the ball-point
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Hope this help pls inform me if more info is needed!

Explanation:

summer of 1944: a Hungarian inventor living in Argentina had created something sensational. Practical fountain pens with internal ink cartridges had been in use for decades, but Laszlo Biro devised a new version that used a ball bearing instead of a nib—in other words, the modern ballpoint pen. It used instant-drying ink that rolled smoothly onto the page, and could write for six months—even at high altitudes—without being refilled.

Easier, more reliable pens were a huge draw for consumers. For pen manufacturers and distributors, however, the real news was that Biro had filed a patent, which meant that the company that bought the rights ought to be able to corner the ballpoint market. That was thought to be Eversharp, which TIME identified as “the biggest pen and pencilmaker in the world,” who acquired the North and Central American rights to the new pen for a half million dollars.

Except for one thing. Reynolds International Pen Co. decided to manufacture their own version, and get it out to stores first. Eversharp’s legal attempts to stop them failed, and 70 years ago, on Oct. 29, 1945, the Reynolds pen became the first-ever modern ballpoint pen sold in the U.S.. At the New York City store that stocked it, demand was high, as TIME reported:

In Manhattan’s Gimbel Bros., Inc., thousands of people all but trampled one another last week to spend $12.50 each for a new fountain pen. The pen was made by Chicago’s Reynolds International Pen Co. In full-page ads, Gimbel’s modestly hailed it as the “fantastic, atomic era, miraculous pen.” It had a tiny ball bearing instead of a point, was guaranteed to need refilling only once every two years, would write under water (handy for mermaids), on paper, cloth, plastic or blotters.

Gimbel’s had ordered 50,000 pens to stock and sold 30,000 of them in that first week.
