Adam Smith (1723 – 1790) was a Scottish economist. In 1776, he published The Wealth of Nations, which became the foundation of modern economics.

Smith saw the first duty of government was to protect the nation from invasion. Next, he supported an independent court system and administration of justice to control crime and protect property. Finally Smith favoured a system of “public works” that profits-seeking individuals may not be able to efficiently build and operate.

At the beginning stages of industrialization, Smith recognized that repetitive factory jobs dulled the minds o workers. Smith wanted all classes, even the poorest, to benefit from the free-market system. This is why I think  Adam Smith would agree with government interventions with businesspeople like Social Security, minimum-wage laws, child-labour laws and anti-monopoly laws.

6 billion years ago the earth is created from what
vlada-n [284]
Earth formed around 4.54 billion years ago by accretion<span> from the </span>solar nebula.<span> Volcanic </span>outgassing<span> probably created the primordial atmosphere and then the ocean; but the atmosphere contained almost no </span>oxygen<span> and so would have been toxic to most modern life including humans. Much of the Earth was molten because of frequent collisions with other bodies which led to extreme volcanism. A "giant impact" collision with a planet-sized body is thought to have been responsible for forming the Moon. Over time, the Earth cooled, causing the formation of a solid </span>crust<span>, and allowing liquid water to exist on the surface.

What are three reasons Americans wanted to go to war with Mexico? What event actually started the war? Help Me Please.
Alisiya [41]
<span>The Mexican-American War (1846-1848) marked the first U.S. armed conflict chiefly fought on foreign soil. It pitted a politically divided and militarily unprepared Mexico against the expansionist-minded administration of U.S. President James K. Polk, who believed the United States had a “manifest destiny” to spread across the continent to the Pacific Ocean. A border skirmish along the Rio Grande started off the fighting and was followed by a series of U.S. victories. When the dust cleared, Mexico had lost about one-third of its territory, including nearly all of present-day California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico.</span>

People vote for candidates to represent them in the decision-making process in a/an
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

election

Explanation:

In a democracy, people vote to select/elect the ones to speak on their behalf and make decisions.  These representatives debate and adopt laws for example at municipal, state and federal levels.

Once the person you elected based on the promises made is in position, you can only hope they'll respect their word and do what they said they would.

If they don't do their job properly, they risk not being re-elected next time around.
