Describe the characteristics of our economic system? Of the benefits and disadvantages of our free-enterprise

Social Studies
1 answer:
zmey [24]3 years ago
5 0

Our economic system is free market capitalism, and the benefits vastly outweigh the disadvantages. Capitalism has brought about reduced pricing in everyday items through competition, reduced pricing in large things like medical expenses through innovation (also furthered by competition), and a vast reduction in poverty in the last 50 years. Another advantage is that it requires consent on the side of both buyer and seller, without a third party like the govt. intervening.

vekshin1

Answer:

Aristocracy: these were the people at the top of Ancient Greek society. Depending on the region, they enjoyed political rights like the right to vote or to hold public office. They often served in the military, which they considered an honor, and owned businesses.

The Metis: this was the Middle Class. Lacking political rights in most cases, they could still own property, and were regarded as valuable members of society.

Slaves: Ancient Greece was a slaved-based society, and slaves were common, in some areas, the majority of the people. Slaves were property and had no rights whatsoever. However, they could obtain their freedom through merit or by purchasing it.

Read the excerpt from "A Modest Proposal." Those who are more thrifty (as I must confess the times require) may flea the carcass
sammy [17]

Answer:

The author is using satire in this excerpt to emphasize the utter absurdity of his plan.

Explanation:

In 1729, Jonathan Swift published "A Modest Proposal" anonymously. The proposal has become a famous satire, since Swift wrote it with "seriousness" only to make it clear that what he stated was an utter absurd. His solution for the poor to stop being a burden is that their children are used as food for the rich. In the excerpt we are studying here, he talks of using their skin to make gloves and summer boots. Throughout the proposal, he uses logical arguments as if he were seriously trying to convince readers of his ideas. Obviously, that proposal is outrageous and cannot be taken seriously, nor did Swift intend it to. He's using it to criticize the economic sate of Ireland, a state in which the rich get richer by shamelessly exploring the poorer classes.
