2. The Declaration of Independence says, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal." The American

philosopher Isaiah Berlin said that "every man to count for one and no one to count for more than one". appears, more than any other formula, to constitute the irreducible minimum of the ideal of equality."* Do you agree or disagree with this idea? Explain your position. 93k

Based on the Declaration of Independence and on the words of Isaiah Berlin, I can say that I agree that both statements “constitute the irreducible minimum of the ideal of equality”. On the first statement from the Declaration of Independence, we can see that when it says “all men are created equal” it is including minorities groups that are usually discriminated against due to race, gender or nationality. Basically, it states that all people are equal and should not be discriminated on the basis of race, gender or nationality.  

On the second statement by philosopher Berlin, the focus is not only on the fact that one man should count as one but also it highlights that no men should be counted as more than one. Here, Berlin wants to indicate that of you are rich and powerful; you are still only one person and cannot be thought of as more worthy than the rest.

To sum up both concepts mention that all men are created equal, the first one focusing on no discrimination against minority groups; and the second one focusing on no power abuse.

Which idea aligns best with Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal?
seropon [69]

Answer:

The New Deal was a series of programs and projects instituted during the Great Depression by President Franklin D. Roosevelt that aimed to restore prosperity to Americans. When Roosevelt took office in 1933, he acted swiftly to stabilize the economy and provide jobs and relief to those who were suffering. Over the next eight years, the government instituted a series of experimental New Deal projects and programs, such as the CCC, the WPA, the TVA, the SEC, and others. Roosevelt’s New Deal fundamentally and permanently changed the U.S. federal government by expanding its size and scope—especially its role in the economy.

How are isolationism and nativism related ? in the 1920s what action did americans take that reveal their distrust of others?
KatRina [158]
<span>Isolationism tends to be borne out of a sense of nativism: that is, the idea that we are the best country among others tends to make us wary of wanting to help other nations. In the '20s, this idea that we shouldn't entangle ourselves in the arguments of other nations led to the US taking an isolationist stance on world diplomatic matters.</span>
