Answer:

The 55 delegates who wrote the Constitution included the majority of the most prominent leaders, called Founding Fathers, of the new nation. Thomas Jefferson, who was in France during the convention, said, "This is really an assembly of demigods." They represented a wide variety of interests, backgrounds, and ranks in life, although the vast majority of them were rich landowners, and all were white males. There were thirty-two lawyers, eleven merchants, four politicians, two military officers, two doctors, two professors / educators, an inventor, and a farmer. The Convention was primarily built by the Christian faith including congregations, episcopalists, Lutherans, Methodists, Presbyterians and Quakers. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams did not attend; They were abroad, in Europe, but they wrote home to encourage delegates. Patrick Henry was also absent, as he refused to go since "something strange was smelled in Philadelphia, tending towards a monarchy".

Who makes the economic decisions in a command economy?
posledela
A. The president makes the economic decisions in a command economy.

A command economy is an economy where government officials, headed by the president, make most of the decisions.

The government owns some or all of the industries producing goods and services. They decide on what goods to produce and its corresponding prices, as well as, how to distribute the goods.

Under this economy, mass unemployment is avoided, abuse of monopoly power is prevented, and produced goods will benefit society and enable everyone to have access to their basic necessities.
