Answer:

The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II aimed to:

b. Banned any new development of nuclear weapons

d. Managed to reduce the size of their nuclear arsenals

Explanation:

The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II or SALT II was the continuation of a previous attempt to regulate the nuclear arms threat between the US and the USSR.  This happened during a period known as the Cold War where the world was divided into 2 blocks competing for power: the Capitalist block led by the US, and the Communist block led by the USSR.

Both countries had developed large arsenals of nuclear weapons and a war between them would've had catastrophic consequences.  Talks between President Jimmy Carter and Premier Brezhnev began in November 1974.  They agreed to: limit the size of their nuclear arsenals, limit the development of new weapons, and limit the deployment of new offensive weapons.  

The treaty was signed on June 18, 1979.

Five state laws that protect consumer rights and describe them in 30-60 words each
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act, Fair Credit Reporting act, Fair debt Collection Practices Act, Truth in Lending act and fair credit billing Act and Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act

Explanation:

Safeguarding the buyer of services and goods against unfair practices is called consumer protection. These laws are established by law, and these laws prevent the businesses from engaging in unfair practices. People may be affected by such practices even if they are not directly consuming or purchasing the product.  

Consumers are the people who consume goods and services. There are various laws in US at both state and federal levels to regulate the consumer affairs. Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act, Fair Credit Reporting act, Fair debt Collection Practices Act, Truth in Lending act and fair credit billing Act and Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act are acts that protect consumers in US.

Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act gives the government authority to oversee the safety of drugs, medical devices, drugs and cosmetic products.  

The Fair Debt collection Practices Act prevents the costumers from unfair practices in the debt collection and to promoted the fair debt collection.  

Fair credit Reporting Act was passed to promote the privacy, fairness and accuracy of consumer information.  

The truth in Lending Act was passed in 1968, it is a federal law for promoting the informed use of consumer credit by requiring the disclosures about its costs and terms to standardising the method in which costs associated with borrowing are disclosed and calculated.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act was passed in 1999, it repealed the part of Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 that barred any one institution from acting as  a commercial bank, an insurance company and investment bank.

BaLLatris [955]

In the South the geographical landscape allowed the slave owners to earn more wealth by making their slave plant a vast area of land, as there were natural barriers between them and the center it was easy for them to expand their territories and cherished more freedom than of those who lived near the government.

Would the U.S government be better if it were a more direct democracy?
blagie [28]

Answer:

I don't know...call me crazy, but I don't think this would be such a bad idea (at least sometime in the future.)  With the advent of the internet, there really is no reason why people can't have more input on legislation.  Remember, congressmen act as representatives of the people for logistical reasons.  Were voting allowed via internet, mail, or permanent polling places, the logistical roadblocks are reduced.

This country has an annoying quality where senators and representatives are elected and then inject their own personality into their voting.  They are supposed to represent the people of their district.  If 60% of the people in their district feel a certain way about an issue, why is the congressman/woman allowed to vote a different way?  Why do their personal beliefs really matter at all?  They are supposed to be voting the way their district wants regardless of what they personally believe.

I know, I know, things can be horribly complicated and the average person can't possibly understand all the issues they are voting on, but last I checked their is no intelligence requirement to be in the government...many people in governement now are dumb as a box of rocks.  They don't have to be smart to be elected, they have to be personable and have good advisors working in the background.

Imagine being able to directly vote on education issues, warfare issues, and being able to prioritize budget items.  Instead of blaming the morons in congress we would only be able to blame ourselves when things went horribly wrong.  Of course, some form of standing governement would still be needed for a lot of reasons.

Again, I know the technology is not hot enough right now to provide the secruity that would be needed, etc, but it won't be long...

In what ways did the guilds change business and employment practices?
arsen [322]
The main way in which the guilds change business and employment practices is that workers formed semi-"unions," in which they were protected from certain abuses by employers. This also meant that business and employers had to pay them more money, since they could collectively bargain.
