History

frosja888 [35]3 years ago
6 0
Checks and balances are a system where one branch of the government holds no more power over one another. For example, a law must be passed through the senate, and then is checked by the House of Representatives before finally being voted in. The president how ever, has more Jurors diction over both the House and the senate ultimately having the power to veto a law if necessary. (May want to double check the order I’ve said things).

Why did colonists feel the Articles of Confederation were necessary even though the Declaration of Independence was already writ
Finger [1]

<em>D. The Declaration of Independence outlined a relationship between individuals and the government but did not detail the power and control of that government.</em>

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was known for its many weaknesses. It gave little to no power to the central government, which made Americans eventually uneasy and lead to the creation of the Declaration of Independence.

The Articles was very weak and granted the central government barely any power that it needed. The government could not tax the states, they had to out right ask the states for money. This lead to the United States not being able to pay off war debts, or other important things that were valuable to keeping up a country. The government also couldn't regulate trade, which was very important during this time and keep up the wealth and importance of the United States. They also couldn't do things such as enforcing laws and passing new laws, they needed many of the states approval before doing anything.

The people who were in support of creating a new constitution were the Federalists, but those who wanted to keep a small government were called Anti-Federalists. Anti-Federalists were most likely scared of a big government because they didn't want the government to abuse their power. They didn't want a repeat of what happened with Great Britain, with "<em>taxation without representation</em>" and not letting people voice opinions, practice different religions, or pass absurd laws that would overall damage individuals. Federalists felt that keeping the government this way was hurting the United States and they should be represented by a big government, obviously not one that was abusive, but one that could get things done while still having the people in mind.

When the Declaration of Independence was created, most of the people focused on the relationship between the government and the people, as it was a hot topic in the past. Many people wanted to make sure the government would not get out of hand and to maintain the good relationship between having a bigger government and the wishes of the American citizens.

Many people also felt that the Articles of Confederation was still needed, as that properly dictated how much power the government could hold, while the Declaration of Independence mostly focused on the relationship between the individuals and the government.

Why does schlafly believe that the equal rights amendment will actually harm women?
Bezzdna [24]
It would degrade the role of wife and mother--The Equal Rights Amendment would secure women's place in the economy and therefore out of the home. 

Phyllis Schlafly believed the ERA would encourage women to enter the workforce instead of take care of their home and children. That role was the most important for women and they had the natural ability to do that job. The ERA would tear apart families and encourage immoral behavior among women. It would also force women to sign up for the draft which Schlafly and many women believed was an improper place for women.
