Research the advantages socialists/communists claimed they had over the free enterprise system. Prepare a 200 word argument defe
zubka84 [21]
Here is some information that you can use to help your write this essay:

Communism/Socialism:
Advantage
- There are no social classes- This means that there are no poor individuals within a society. There is no upper, lower, or middle class. Everyone has about the same amount of income/resources.

Disadvantage:
- Little economic freedom- The government plans the economy. This means they control how many products a business makes and how many goods/resources each family has.

Capitalism
Advantage:
- Individual freedom- In a capitalist society, citizens can buy whatever they want as long as they have the money. This allows citizens to do what they want, when  they want, without having the government telling them what to do.

Disadvantage:
- Poverty/Homelessness- This system involves very little government interference with the economy. This means there will be social classes. Ultimately, some individuals will end up poor or homeless for any number of reasons.

Who does Lincoln say is engaged in a great civil war?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer: He was speaking in general to stop fighting and shedding each others blood! Hope this helps

Explanation:

In November of 1863 President Abraham Lincoln was invited to attend the dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Seventeen acres adjacent to the town's regular cemetery had been purchased for the burial of the soldiers killed in the Battle of Gettysburg. The chief orator was to be the eloquent Edward Everett of Massachusetts. Mr. Lincoln would then add a few appropriate remarks in honor of the dead. Everett ended up speaking for about two hours; Lincoln spoke for less than three minutes.

While in Gettysburg, where would the president stay? David Wills, a Gettysburg attorney, was the chairman of the cemetery board. His home fronted on the public square. Wills invited the president to stay overnight at his home.

The president rode to Gettysburg on a special train of four cars furnished by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. The train left Washington, D.C. and traveled through Maryland to Baltimore. There it was transferred to the North Central tracks and proceeded on that line to Hanover Junction, Pennsylvania. There it changed to the Hanover Line for the remainder of the trip to Gettysburg.

Lincoln arrived in Gettysburg at 5:00 P.M. on November 18. He ate dinner and spent the night at Wills' mansion before giving his famous address the next day.

Under early mercantilism, european nations sought a to import raw materials from the americas and ship manufactured goods to the
kozerog [31]

TRUE

<em>I'm assuming you included that as a true/false sort of question.</em>

The mercantile system believed the wealth of the world was a fixed amount, measured primarily in gold and silver accumulated.  The system promoted a nation selling its products abroad but not needing to buy from others, or imposing heavy tariffs if importing anything.  Colonies were created to provide raw materials and resources to the mother country and a market for the mother country's products.  Commerce was heavily controlled by the government through charters granted to specific trading companies.

As one example, Great Britain strove to achieve its mercantilism goal by using the American colonies as a way of enriching the British home government.  Britain also sought to control shipping by a dominant navy and merchant marine.

"Mercantilism" is a term we get from Scottish philosopher Adam Smith (1723-1790).  Smith criticized what he called the "mercantile system" because it restricted trade and thus restricted economic growth.   Smith countered by advocating a free market -- the opportunity for all nations to increase their wealth by exchanging goods freely with one another according to what would become known as capitalist principles.
