B. Prohibition

In 1917, the US Congress passed the 18th Amendment, prohibiting the manufacture, transportation and sale of intoxicating beverages. The 18th Amendment was ratified in 1919. But enforcing Prohibition proved to be exceedingly difficult. As one observer at the time said, """I have noticed that every attempt to legislate morals into the people has resulted in disaster." By 1933, Congress passed and the states ratified the 21st Amendment, which repealed the 18th Amendment and ended the Prohibition Era.

How did the theory of social Darwinism affect the governments relationship to big business ?
Sloan [31]
Social Darwinism most heavily affected the US government's relationship to big business during the late 1800s, coined by Mark Twain as "the Gilded Age." The theory affected this relationship by convincing (or allowing politicians to convince themselves) that only the strongest will survive and thus the government operated under a <em>laissez-faire </em>system (French for "hands off"). The government felt it should not regulate or weigh in on business issues and instead let businesses conduct affairs amongst themselves; however, this led to the creation of large monopolies, the formation of a moneyed elite still with us today, and the creation of the now huge wealth gap between the richest and poorest Americans.

Which statement best summarizes what US manufacturing had accomplished by 1900?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

A.US manufacturing had surpassed industrialized Britain, and the United States had become the world’s largest producer.

Explanation:

The other answers are simply impossible or make little sense. China, Russia, and Latin America were agricultural societies.

Brittain was the leading industrial nation during most of the 1800s. But the Second Industrial revolution brought changes that benefited the United States.  

The railroad connected the vast territory and allowed for rapid development, coal and oil helped the industry. A huge internal market gave companies unparalleled opportunities for business.

Finally, steel and oil boomed and made the US the leading industrial country by the turn of the century.
