He is referencing the issue of slavery and the threat of it being outlawed in the United States. This fear was very real for southerners after President Abraham Lincoln was elected president in the election of 1860. Southerners feared that he would outlaw slavery across the United States.

This issue greatly affected the southern states, causing several of them to secede (leave) the US in order to form their own country. This would be called the Confederate State of America and this faction helps spark the Civil War.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of a command economy. In your opinion, should America adopt this system? Explain your
inessss [21]

Answer:

Answer is in explanation

Explanation:

In a command economy, the government determines what is produced, how it is produced, and how it is distributed. Private enterprise does not exist in a command economy. The government employs all workers and unilaterally determines their wages and job duties. Some advantages can be less inequality because the government controls the means of production in a command economy, it determines who works where and for how much pay. This power structure contrasts sharply with a free market economy, in which private companies control the means of production and hire workers based on business needs, paying them wages set by invisible market forces. Low Unemployment Levels, Unlike the invisible hand of the free market, which cannot be manipulated by a single company or individual, a command economy government can set wages and job openings to create the unemployment rate and wage distribution that it sees fit. Disadvantages can be Lack of Competition Inhibits Innovation, Critics argue that the inherent lack of competition in command economies hinders innovation and keeps prices from resting at an optimal level for consumers. Although those who favor government control criticize private firms that esteem profit above all else, it is undeniable that profit is a motivator and drives innovation. At least partly for this reason, many advancements in medicine and technology have come from countries with free market economies, such as the United States and Japan. Inefficiency, Efficiency is also compromised when the government acts as a monolith, controlling every aspect of a country's economy. The nature of competition forces private companies in a free market economy to minimize red tape and keep operating and administrative costs to a minimum. If they get too bogged down with these expenses, they earn lower profits or need to raise prices to meet expenses. Ultimately, they are driven out of the market by competitors capable of operating more efficiently.

Why did hitler never attacked switzerland?
Natali5045456 [20]

There were many reasons for Hitler to not attack Switzerland, as the country did not have any natural resources which could have attracted Hitler. Another simple reason is that Hitler never felt the need to invade Switzerland as the whole point of attack could be to utilize the train lines, supply lines and other facilities to ease up the transportation of German army with which Switzerland never messed even during the war, German armies were passing through Switzerland freely, the famous stories are common about sealed rail cars passing through Italy to Germany. Switzerland played an almost neutral role during war which could also be a reason for their safe grounds.

Though Hitler had a plan to attack Switzerland called “Operation Tannenbaum”, which was cancelled later.
