What is graft & patronage?

History
1 answer:
melomori [17]3 years ago
6 0
Graft:
Graft is a form of political corruption in which an official acquires financial gain by dishonest or unfair means, especially through the abuse of one’s position. Unlike bribery, graft does not require the official to provide an undue advantage; it is enough that she/he gains something of value apart from her/his official pay when working.

Patronage:
Patronage is a system in which a number of organizations, companies and/or individuals bestow support or financial benefits upon one another. Political patronage occurs when political supporters are rewarded for their support (e.g., by being appointed to public office or receiving contracts, subsidies or other benefits), regardless of merits.

What national power did the Articles of Confederation grant?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

I believe the answer is D.

Explanation:

One of the biggest problems was that the national government had no power to impose taxes. To avoid any perception of “taxation without representation,” the Articles of Confederation allowed only state governments to levy taxes. To pay for its expenses, the national government had to request money from the states.
