Answer:

The decision of the Supreme Court affected the US citizens' right to freedom of speech.

Explanation:

Charles Schenck was the general secretary of the US Social Party. Socialists were against the world war that was occurring at the time since they believed that the US involvement only benefited the rich. The poor soldiers were the ones who were sent to fight. As a result, socialists also urged US workers to oppose the war. Schenck participated in many anti war activities and he mailed leaflets to soldiers trying to convince them of resisting the draft. As he violated the Espionage Act, because he caused insubordination in the military forces, he was convicted. However, after being tried, Schenck argued that his right to freedom of speech protected by the 1st Amendment of the US Constitution had been violated. The Espionage Act limited the freedom of speech in times of war. For the Court, Schenck's actions had put other people at risk. As a result, in wartime reasonable limits can be put the 1st Amendment's provision governing freedom of speech.

The two major types of transactions that affect the international flow of money are? A. supply and demand.
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

The two major types of transactions that affect the international flow of money are trade in goods and services and capital flows.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Out of all data on international economic transaction in the US, capital flow indicators are most prone to misleads and gaps. It is the exchange in financial assets between US and foreign residents.

Over the past ten years, capital flows have even exceeded trade flows. Information on this is largely needed to study the degree of US economy's internationalisation as below,

  • Changing financial markets process in America
  • Impact of foreign direct investments on the internal economy
  • Foreign investment income in the US and net foreign debt service tax in the US
  • The relationship between foreign capital flows and US interest and exchange rate.

Since net capital flows must be consistent with the balance of transactions and transfers (check account) for international goods and services, better information on cash flows would help explain the accuracy of US check account data.
