According to Paine, society is constructive and composed of good people. People would be happier if they were the creators of rules and law in a system of representatives. He urges colonists to take belligerent actions against the British rulers who did not hesitate to attack American colonies, he stated "By perseverance and fortitude we have the prospect of a glorious issue; by cowardice and submission, the sad choice of a variety of evils". He supported the independence of the American colonies. Paine sees  Government as an institution whose goal should be to protect society (life, liberty and property), however it has evil roots. King George "the Pharaoh of England" and "the Royal Brute of Great Britain" was born from the practice of monarchy, and succession is seen as a form of abomination thus a violation of man's right to choose a ruler.

Paine views war harmful for the lower classes who would not get benefits from it, on the other hand it was necessary for the necessity of creating a new government.

Pls answer number 3 pls! I don’t understand it!
MrMuchimi

Answer:

number 3 is asking which region (Pacific Northwest, Midwest, southern, etc...) is least populated. this map says that each dot equates a certain amount of people. therefore, a section of the map with more dots will be more populated. so the east is definitely not right because there are so many dark blue dots clustered there. the center of the US (the south/North Dakota area mostly) in contrast has way fewer dots.

Pros and Cons of Presidential Power
Dmitry [639]

The Pros and Cons of too many Presidential powers.

Pros.

The country has one undisputable leader, the President.

The President can lead the army. He is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

Decision-making is quickly under the directives of the President.

Executive orders guarantee that decisions turn into effective actions.

Cons.

Too much power can turn into a dictatorship. That is why the other two branches need to do an effective job exerting their powers.

The President can veto laws creating a "legislation paralysis for a while."

The President can overwhelm decisions, not listening to what their advisors had to say or not taking into consideration the members of his cabinet.

He could exceed his authority when he wants to make treaties without the approval of the US Senate or wants to declare war without the approval of Congress.

The US President is the leader of the United States. He is the chief diplomat, he is the commander-in-chief of the US armed forces(Airforce, Navy, Army, Coastal Guard). He has the power to veto bills and sign bills. He can enforce legislation passed by Congress. He leads the executive branch and the Cabinet and appoints Supreme Court Justices.
