Answer:

There are vestiges of Progressivism in many of the anti-trust legislation that are still in place and labor laws, as they have their roots in the Progressivism movement.

Explanation:

Progressivism was a broad movement that arose between 1896 and 1916 and was primarily led by white, middle-class professionals. They sought solutions to the problems that were arising in the modern era due to rapid economic expansion and political and corporate corruption and industrialization. They also looked for solutions to counter the ill effects of urbanization.  Many of our current child labor laws, for example, have their foundations in this movement. Also, anti-trust legislation from that era is still in effect: the Sherman and Clayton antitrust acts remain in force today. These acts establish certain business practices to be unethical like price-fixing and creating Monopolies. They also uphold various workers' rights like limits on the length of the workday.

Describe where the Jews began, where they spread to, and what role the Torah played.
Doss [256]
Jewish religious books claim that the people as a culture existed as far as 1500 BC. They lived as slaves in Egypt until Moses set them free. The Torah played a massive role in their lives because, according to Judaism, it was written by God directly, that is, it was given to Moses to write down, since he was the prophet of the lord. The Torah became the law of the land as it was created by god itself. They spread from Egypt towards the middle east.
