Should the United States pass a balanced budget amendment?

NNADVOKAT [17]

Many conservatives suggest passing a law or even a Constitutional amendment requiring the government to balance its budget. Running a deficit, therefore, would be deemed unconstitutional. Enacting a law like this would also ensure that a balanced budget is presented to Congress and that any excess spending is capped.

The growth of a civilization has much in common with the growth of: an industry, a person: a government, a planet

IgorC [24]

The correct answer is industry.

A civilization is an advanced state of human society. Its components are: government, culture, industry, language and common social norms.

Industry is the production of goods within an economy.

The growth of industry in a dominant factor in the growth of any civilization. People in any given society need employment and education, the more they earn/learn, the better their living standards. Better living standards lead to more consuming power and this means more revenues for the country, more investments and better civil services. A growth of civilization is measured not only in material goods but also in cultural and society benefiting aspects of life: inventions, patents, artistic content ( books, plays, movies etc). Without growing industry all this would be hindered since people would only concentrate on their struggle to survive and to sustain their families, neglecting their mental development.
