History

It encourages spending, which increases other kinds of tax.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Increasing the minimum wages increases the standard of people from the poverty line. It not only increases the welfare but also increases the spending among the people. But raising the wages also creates a negative effect causing inflation and higher costs for the business. This would decrease the profit of the firm.

The spending profile of employees helps us to access how they spend their extra earned money on purchasing things which is acquired by the government in the form of taxes. The combination of these direct and indirect effects results in lower economic activity.

What would be the reactions of today's society if the Sons of Liberty had done the Boston Tea party now? Would everyone support
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The ideas behind the Boston Tea Party can still be seen in politics today. The Sons of Liberty were angry about unfair government, so they protested through the destruction of government property. If, in modern day, the government was as unfair as it was during colonial times then these forms of protest would surely be popular. However, it is extremely unlikely that everyone would support it. Even back at the real Boston Tea Party a group called the loyalist did not support the Sons of Liberty. Similar groups would most likely form that would also disagree with a modern-day Boston Tea Party.
