Why did protection rackets become ubiquitous after

History
1 answer:
Talja [164]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

By the mid-1990s, according to some estimates, about 85% of commercial enterprises (almost all except those engaged in security affairs or working under the direct protection of law enforcement agencies) were under the control of gangster groups, while, according to sociological surveys of entrepreneurs, they were extorted by force in the number of only 30–45% encountered. The increasing competition between gangster and police 'protectorate' has led to the fact that after a violent surge in the first half of the 1990s, the criminal power protection of entrepreneurs returned to the original situation that existed before the legalization of entrepreneurship. By the end of the 1990s, under the gangster 'protectorate,' mainly those segments of the market remained where the share of illegal operations was high.

The rampant crime was associated with a sharp breakdown of established institutions of the Soviet era and the beginning of the formation of new ones. Newly-made entrepreneurs did not receive legal support. They were forced to collaborate with organized crime. Racketers were most often associated with corrupt law enforcement officials.

Why does the last paragraph of Article 1, Section 8, and Article 6 of the Constitution scare Yates so much? Explain your answer.
katrin2010 [14]

Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution stated that Congress had the power to make the laws under which the country shall be governed.

Article 6 of the Constitution stated that all laws and treaties made under the United States authority are considered as supreme Law of the Land. Therefore, judges in every state should grant justice according to these Laws.

Robert Yates, who participated in the Constitutional Convention, was highly skeptical of granting much power to a single central government, therefore, the fact that a central entity had the power to manage the supreme Law of the Land instead of delegating some of it to the states was something he opposed.
