The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 established minimum wages and abolished child labor in the US.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Due to the oppressive nature of work in the US, President Roosevelt during his term from 1933 to 1945 tried to improve working conditions and also to abolish child labor.
  • As a result, the Fair Labor Standards Act came into enactment in 1938.
  • It established minimum wages for the workers (25 cents), reduced minimum age to be employed to 16 and maximum possible hours of work to 44. This was to be reduced further in the coming years.
  • It succeeded in improving working conditions and also in abolishing child labor.

Have political parties contributed to divisiveness or have they kept the country intact?​ Please Exsplain.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

They have kept the country intact

Explanation:

I think this is a very interesting question. In my opinion, I think they have kept the country intact, look at it this way. Political parties means that there exists choice for the people. Absence of political parties makes it a 1 man ruling without the necessary checks and balances. Like in that of a monarchical ruling t, or military ruling. Essentially, one can do and undo as one wishes.

Now, the advent of political parties brings choice, meaning the people can choose. In a situation where party A doesn't fulfill its political campaign promises, they are at risk of being voted out by the people for party B. Party B themselves won't sit down idle, while not in power, they wake the people up to the wrongdoings of party A.

Like I said, the presence of political parties brings choice to the people, and also creates checks and balances. So, yes, they have kept the country intact.
