The correct answer is letter C

Explanation: In this specific type of experiment there is a great possibility that the letters will be confused, by the way the pronunciation looks and also by the appearance, by the similarity. Usually in these experiments these letters are placed on purpose to identify these assimilation processes.

Does censorship happen here in the United States? Wouldn't that violate our freedom of speech?
velikii [3]

Answer:

Yes. This happens on a minimal or indirect scale

Explanation:

Censorship refers to the measures taken to limit the communication of ideas that are deemed inappropriate especially on moral grounds. These materials could be in written, visual, and oral forms. The First Amendment of the constitution of the United States of America highlights Freedom of Speech for the citizens. The government has made efforts to censor certain materials especially on the internet which has met constant opposition.

The American Civil Liberties Union attests to the fact that several states in the United States of America have censorship laws. These laws are violations of the Freedom of Speech in the First Amendment for they limit people's right to express their views.

Means to demand payment for protection?
Travka [436]

Answer:

A protection racket is a scheme where a potentially hazardous group guarantees protection from violence, looting, raiding, piracy, and other such threats posed by them outside the sanction of the law, to polities, businesses, individuals, or other entities and groups that pay to them in cash or kind. In other words, it is a racket that sells security, traditionally physical security. Through the credible threat of violence, the racketeers deter people from swindling, robbing, injuring, sabotaging or otherwise harming their clients. Protection rackets tend to appear in markets in which the police and judiciary cannot be counted on to provide legal protection, because of incompetence (as in weak or failed states) or illegality (black markets). Protection rackets are indistinguishable in practice from extortion rackets and distinguishable from private security by some degree of implied threat that the racketeers themselves may attack the business if it fails to pay for their protection. A distinction is possible between a "pure" extortion racket in which the racketeers might agree only not to attack a business and a broader protection racket offering some real private security in addition to such extortion. The criminals might agree to defend a business from any attack by either themselves or third parties (other criminal gangs). However, in reality, that distinction is doubtful, because extortion racketeers may have to defend their clients against rival gangs to maintain their profits. By corollary, criminal gangs may have to maintain control of territories (turfs), as local businesses may collapse if forced to pay for protection from too many rackets, which then hurts all parties involved. Certain scholars, such as Diego Gambetta, classify criminal organizations engaged in protection racketeering as "mafia", as the racket is popular with both the Sicilian Mafia and Italian-American Mafia.

Explanation:

A protection racket is an operation where criminals provide protection to persons and properties, settle disputes and enforce contracts in markets where the police and judicial system cannot be relied upon. Protection racketeers or mafia groups operate mostly in the black market, providing buyers and sellers the security they need for smooth transactions; but empirical data collected by Gambetta and Varese suggests that mafia groups are able to offer private protection to corporations and individuals in legal markets when the state fails to offer sufficient and efficient protection to the people in need. Two elements distinguish racketeers from legal security firms. The first element is their willingness to deploy violent forms of retribution (going as far as murder) that fall outside the limits the law normally extends to civilian security firms. The other element is that racketeers are willing to involve themselves in illegal markets

Professional sports teams will sometimes seek public subsidies for stadium financing projects that produce large benefits for a
guapka [62]

Answer:

The correct response is the special-interest effect.

Explanation:

This kind of situation regarding the financing of projects with public subsidies is called the special-interest effect.  This is a complicated notion because it denotes the tendency for politicians to favor special interest groups that are easily identifiable and that appear well-organized and competent through prior interactions for example. This is because the wider voting populace tends to ignore issues or seems more apathetic. To the individual politician, it seems more efficient and logical to give funds to those interests that are more organized and active. Special interest voters make their candidates and legislators aware of their needs and the projects they promote. In this way,  politicians and legislators are led to promote the positions of special interests.
