Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Document 4a - Historian Eric Foner was interviewed for a documentary special entitled "Africans in America". Below is an excerpt of this interview.

Q: What is the relationship between slavery and westward expansion?

A: … The westward expansion carried slavery down into the Southwest, into Mississippi, Alabama, crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana. Finally, by the 1840’s, it was pouring into Texas…. Now in the Southwest, West, and South, slave owners insisted that slavery was absolutely essential to that story of progress. Without slavery, you could not have civilization, they said. Slavery freed the upper class from the need to do manual labor, freed them from actually settling and creating civilization, freed them from working on the land, to worry about economic day-to-day realities…. and therefore gave them the time and the intellectual ability to devote themselves to the arts and literature and mechanical advantages and inventions of all kinds. So that it was slavery itself which made the progress of civilization possible.…Therefore, in order to settle the Southwest and Western territories, slavery would be a necessary institution.  

4a. According to Eric Foner, suggest ONE reason Southern slave owners supported the expansion of slavery into the west.

Answer:

One reason for the expansion of slavery to the west was to promote the colonization of that land and therefore to promote civilization.

Explanation:

According to Erick Foner's response, slavery allowed whites to create American civilization, according to their own thoughts. This is because, according to the scruocratic thought, if slaves took care of heavy work, whites would promote art, science and literature, which are the factors they believed were the shapers of civilization. thus, by supporting the expansion of slavery to the west, the colonizers believed that they were taking civilization to these lands.

Choose 2 enumerated powers and describe how they are still relevant today
MArishka [77]

Section 8, Clause 1:  Power to Tax and Spend

<em>The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;</em>

<u>Its today's relevance: </u>

Without taxes, the government would be unable to meet the demands of society and make improvements necessary for the economic growth of a country as well as to help raise the standard of living.

The taxes collection is a form of raising the revenues' state in order to use it to meet the demands of the society by financing social projects in sectors such as health (social healthcare, medical research, social security, etc.), education (funding, furnishing, and maintaining the public education system), Governance (to pay public servants, police officers, members of parliaments, the postal system, etc.) and by funding other sectors that are important for the well being of the citizens such as infrastructure development, transport, housing, security, scientific research, environmental protection, defense, etc.

Article I, Section 8, Clause 8:  Copyrights and Patents

<em>To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;</em>

<u>Its today's relevance: </u>

Today's world is characterized for an easy digital reproduction and distribution, where anyone can take a content and spread it the way it wants (badly or not), and sell it too. When authors have the copyright of their writings or discoveries, they can protect their work against piracy and control who makes money off of it, legally.

When authors are protected by law that their work will be protected, even if it's just for a limited time, they tend to feel more encouraged to keep creating.
