Correct answer:

<h2>Limited government</h2>

The 10th Amendment puts limits on the powers of the federal government.  It reserves powers for the states (and for the people themselves) any powers not specifically designated to the federal government in the United States Constitution.   Any laws and powers exercised by the states still must be in accord with what is stated in the US Constitution, however.

For some historical context, we might also consider that the original framers of the US Constitution thoughts that statements such as the 10th Amendment -- and all of the first 10 Amendments, known as the Bill of Rights -- were already inherent in the Constitution as it was written.  They had composed a constitution that intentionally placed limits on the federal government. So, stating such a limit in an amendment seemed like a repetition of what was already apparent in the Constitution itself.  As noted by the National Constitution Center, "The Constitution’s Framers thought that a bill of rights was appropriate for an unlimited government, but not for a limited one like the national government created by the Constitution. The Constitution accordingly sought to secure liberty through enumerations of powers to the government rather than through enumerations of rights to the people."

Nevertheless, to assure those who wanted the rights of the people specifically listed and protected, Amendments 1 through 10 were added to the Constitution as a Bill of Rights to affirm those protections.

Gekata [30.6K]

The correct answer is B) US free trade increased.

An effect of US government policies during the 1920s was that US free trade increased.

The 1920s represented a time of great prosperity for the United States. Indeed, there is a term that identifies these years in America called "the Roaring 1920s." The US industry was running smoothly, people had money or credit, so they could buy many necessary or unnecessary things and this meant more income for the US companies. Those years were the beginning of Mass Culture.

Tariff  type of tax was implemented by country Q

Explanation:

Tariff is the tax levied by one republic nation on the goods brought in from another country. There are two types of tariffs which are specific and add valorem tariffs. It is best for raising the revenue of the country form imports but it results in high consumer price of the products which are imported.

When a country imports the specific goods, then the internal indigenous industries which produce the similar goods may lose their value by reducing the competition.

In olden days cross border trade was viewed to be the zero game where one can total wealth out of tariffs or other country could face total loss. There are also many instances in past which created rivalry between countries due to increase in tariffs that restricted imports.
