On what basis do many companies claim the rights of private citizens??

History

GaryK [48]3 years ago
3 0

Many companies claim the rights of private citizens because they are bound by judicial mandates.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

It was not until 1976 that the idea of 'corporate personhood' advanced. The Supreme Court, in a number of instances, found that companies need to be granted the rights that all the other individuals have so as to simplify the legal suits between individuals and corporations.

Moreover, the fact that corporations are nothing else but groups of people coming together for a common cause gave rise to the need of corporations having the rights of private citizens. The Supreme Court, through its interpretation of articles first, fifth, and fourteenth of the US Constitution, granted companies certain rights that private citizens have.

Explanation:

Relations between the Soviet Union and the United States were driven by a complex interplay of ideological, political, and economic factors, which led to shifts between cautious cooperation and often bitter superpower rivalry over the years. The distinct differences in the political systems of the two countries often prevented them from reaching a mutual understanding on key policy issues and even, as in the case of the Cuban missile crisis, brought them to the brink of war.

The United States government was initially hostile to the Soviet leaders for taking Russia out of World War I and was opposed to a state ideologically based on communism. Although the United States embarked on a famine relief program in the Soviet Union in the early 1920s and American businessmen established commercial ties there during the period of the New Economic Policy (1921–29), the two countries did not establish diplomatic relations until 1933. By that time, the totalitarian nature of Joseph Stalin's regime presented an insurmountable obstacle to friendly relations with the West. Although World War II brought the two countries into alliance, based on the common aim of defeating Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union's aggressive, antidemocratic policy toward Eastern Europe had created tensions even before the war ended.

Choose three goods. Then predict whether they have elastic or inelastic demand at their current price. Next, determine their ela
gladu [14]

The price elasticity of a demand function measures the reaction of the quantity demanded by consumers after the price modification of a product. According to the law of demand, for normal goods, when the price of the product increases, the quantity demanded decreases, therefore there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity. Elasticity helps to assess the proportion of the modifications in the two variables.

<u>Let's analyse the following three goods:</u>

  1. Gasoline, is a good with an inelastic type of demand curve. When there is a change in the price of gasoline, the quantity demanded by consumers decreases in a lower proportion than the price increase. There are no easily available susbtitutes that consumers could purchase instead of gasoline to cover the same need. <em>The shape of this type of demand curve is represented by the first graph attached.</em>
  2. Cola, is a product with an elastic demand curve. When the price of a certain type/brand of cola drink increases its price, the quantity demanded of that product decreases in a larger proportion than the price increases. Consumers can easily switch and buy from a different cola brand or select a different type of soda drink to satisfy the same need. <em>The shape of this type of demand curve is represented by the second graph attached.</em>
  3. Two vending machines located next to each other provide an example of a perfectly elastic demand curve. If the price of one of the two vending machines increases for the same product, its quantity demanded would be reduced to 0, as all consumers will switch to the other machine which is located only a few centimetres away. <em>The shape of this type of demand curve is represented by the third graph attached.</em>

According to Henry Adams, what was the relationship between sharecroppers and their employers?
Kay [80]
He exclaimed that the employers tricked them and didn't give them almost anything for their work. He provided information on how much he and his fellow men produced, which was a lot, and how they only got enough to eat. They were still being treated as slaves and were not allowed to see their wives or sisters or anything similar by their employers.
