Why did the Supreme Court ruling in Korematsu v. United States (1944) anger supporters of civil liberties

Answer:

The Supreme Court ruling in Korematsu v. United States in 1944 angered supporters of civil liberties because it was a law that arbitrarily restricted the rights of many American citizens, for the simple fact of belonging to a certain ethnic group, the Japanese-Americans.

During World War II, following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the American entry into the war, a racist wave began within the United States government, targeting mainly Japanese-Americans, and to a lesser extent, against Germans and Italians.

Thus, Japanese people's property in America began to be confiscated, sending these people to detention camps as they feared they might support the Japanese government in the war. Fred Korematsu, born in America and citizen of the nation, claimed this situation before the court, saying that it violated the Fifth Amendment.

The Supreme Court, in its ruling, determined that this situation should be maintained as it responded to questions of defense and national security, endorsing the curtailment and subjugation of the rights of thousands of innocent American citizens.

Help please <br><br> whats the diffrences between capitalism vs socialism
sasho [114]

Capitalism is free trade. For capitalism to exist, you must a right to private property and free association. In capitalism, you generate riches by producing and trading it for something of greater value to yourself. The person acquiring your product is giving you something that you want in exchange for something that they want. Both sides win. In capitalism, the one that is always above everything else is the consumer and the consumer dictates the market rules most of the time. Once the consumer finds a different product that is cheaper and has the same function that yours have, you will have to step up your game. This competition in the free market is what boosted most of the technology and quality of things that we have around us today. Everybody wants to pay less for something even better.

In socialism, there's a worry about the less favored parts of society. To be able to take care of them, governments take part of the money of the workers and producers to invest in measures to assist the less fortunate. Much of this process is called "income distribution".  To many, socialism is a middle way to communism, where everybody is supposed to be the same and have the same no matter what.
