1. What words does the author use to describe the powers in the Constitution?

History

Ierofanga [76]3 years ago

Hello. You forgot to put the text to which this question refers. The text is:

After listing the numerous powers granted to Congress by the Constitution the author says:

My object is to consider that undefined, unbounded and immense power which is comprised in the following clause: “And to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this constitution in the government of the United States; or in any department or offices thereof.” Under such a clause as this, can anything be said to be reserved and kept back from Congress? ...

In giving such immense, such unlimited powers, was there no necessity of a Bill of Rights, to secure to the people their liberties? Is it not evident that we are left wholly dependent on the wisdom and virtue of the men who shall from time to time be the members of Congress? And who shall be able to say seven years hence, the members of Congress will be wise and good men, or of the contrary character?

Answer:

The author uses the words "undefined", "unbounded" and "immense" to describe the powers of the constitution.

Explanation:

For the author, the constitution is highly powerful, since it has the capacity to possess immense, unlimited and indefinite power. This is a concern for the population of the country, because nothing guarantees that all this relevance will not be used for evil.

The power of the constitution is managed by those who administer it, the congressmen. No one guarantees that the members of the Congress are and will be just and good people, who will use all the power of the constitution for good.

<em>It's definitely B, take my word on it.</em>

here's what I found researching some websites.

"<em><u>These thinkers valued reason, science, religious tolerance, and what they called “natural rights”</u></em>—life, liberty, and property. Enlightenment philosophers John Locke, Charles Montesquieu, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau all developed theories of government in which some or even all the people would govern."

"The Enlightenment was influenced by reason because it was a time of optimism and possibility. People started to study human nature and society. What new views did philosophers have about government? These rulers inspired further rulers, and people began to believe that human reason could solve any problem."

"Montesquieu believed in the separation of power with checks and balances. Checks and balances are put in place to ensure that no one branch of government has too much power."

"Other enlightenment thinkers have influence on the US constitution. Volitaire's ideas are used. Volitaire believed in religious freedom which is practiced in the US today."

Should the United States have done more to help European Jews during the 1930s? What could it have done?
igomit [66]

Answer:

There are some issues related to the U.S. response to the European Jews during the 1930s.

Explanation:

Jewish refugees during the war, seek to escape from persecution in Germany in the 1930s and from the Holocaust. The Immigration and Nationality Act had imposed extremely tight rules to immigration in America, and it was not loosened in the 1930s for Germans immigrants despite the awareness of the discrimination, mass imprisonment, and violence against Jews in Nazi Germany.

The second was the late response to the Holocaust when they refused to take military action to destroy the concentration camps and the railroad lines.

America could have helped European Jews by reducing immigration restrictions. Also, could have stopped the growing antisemitism in the country towards the Jews.
