Is it legitimate for people who are being taxed without direct representation to start a revolution?

History

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

I mean, The United States did it, and I’m assuming that is what the question is referring too.

America was thousands of miles from Britain, and had no power over what happened to them. They held no representatives in parliament, so they had no control over what happened to them. I think it is completely sensible for the colonies to be upset over that, enough so to throw a revolution.

How did the views of Susan B. Anthony and Lucy Stone differ on the passage of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendment
Roman55 [17]

The Fourteenth Amendment assured that anyone who was born in the United States, man or woman, white or black, was to be considered a citizen of the country.

However, it also included the word male in the document when it comes to voting, making it clear that woman were not given equal rights. The fifteenth Amendment made sure that no men, again, nothing about women, would be denied the right to vote because of his race.

Susan B. Anthony objected the new law immediately. It was her opinion that the new law just created a new challenge for the female activists.

Lucy Stone, on the other hand, believed that the Amendments were an advance anyways and she was ok with the law, considering that she also believed that it would not take much longer for woman to have the right to vote.

Need help with a paragraph about john locke
Hatshy [7]

Answer: Locke had been looking for a career and in 1667 moved into Ashley's home at Exeter House in London, to serve as his personal physician. In London, Locke resumed his medical studies under the tutelage of Thomas Sydenham. Sydenham had a major effect on Locke's natural philosophical thinking – an effect that would become evident in An Essay Concerning Human Understanding.

Locke's medical knowledge was put to the test when Ashley's liver infection became life-threatening. Locke coordinated the advice of several physicians and was probably instrumental in persuading Ashley to undergo surgery (then life-threatening itself) to remove the cyst. Ashley survived and prospered, crediting Locke with saving his life.During this time, Locke served as Secretary of the Board of Trade and Plantations and Secretary to the Lords Proprietors of Carolina, which helped to shape his ideas on international trade and economics.

Ashley, as a founder of the Whig movement, exerted great influence on Locke's political ideas. Locke became involved in politics when Ashley became Lord Chancellor in 1672 (Ashley being created 1st Earl of Shaftesbury in 1673). Following Shaftesbury's fall from favour in 1675, Locke spent some time travelling across France as a tutor and medical attendant to Caleb Banks. He returned to England in 1679 when Shaftesbury's political fortunes took a brief positive turn. Around this time, most likely at Shaftesbury's prompting, Locke composed the bulk of the Two Treatises of Government. While it was once thought that Locke wrote the Treatises to defend the Glorious Revolution of 1688, recent scholarship has shown that the work was composed well before this date.The work is now viewed as a more general argument against absolute monarchy (particularly as espoused by Robert Filmer and Thomas Hobbes) and for individual consent as the basis of political legitimacy. Although Locke was associated with the influential Whigs, his ideas about natural rights and government are today considered quite revolutionary for that period in English history.

Locke fled to the Netherlands in 1683, under strong suspicion of involvement in the Rye House Plot, although there is little evidence to suggest that he was directly involved in the scheme. The philosopher and novelist Rebecca Newberger Goldstein argues that during his five years in Holland, Locke chose his friends "from among the same freethinking members of dissenting Protestant groups as Spinoza's small group of loyal confidants. Baruch Spinoza had died in 1677.Locke almost certainly met men in Amsterdam who spoke of the ideas of that renegade Jew who... insisted on identifying himself through his religion of reason alone." While she says that "Locke's strong empiricist tendencies" would have "disinclined him to read a grandly metaphysical work such as Spinoza's Ethics, in other ways he was deeply receptive to Spinoza's ideas, most particularly to the rationalist's well thought out argument for political and religious tolerance and the necessity of the separation of church and state."

In the Netherlands, Locke had time to return to his writing, spending a great deal of time working on the Essay Concerning Human Understanding and composing the Letter on Toleration. Locke did not return home until after the Glorious Revolution. Locke accompanied Mary II back to England in 1688. The bulk of Locke's publishing took place upon his return from exile – his aforementioned Essay Concerning Human Understanding, the Two Treatises of Government and A Letter Concerning Toleration all appearing in quick succession.

what kind of changes in transportation and technology took place in the United States in the early 1800s? how did those changes
Inessa [10]
The major developments in transportation were that overland transportation was improved by the creation of the National Road, the speed of water transportation was improved by the steamboat that made it easier to travel against the current, new canals provided efficient water transportation that linked farms to expanding cities, and railroads were built which cost less to build, could scale hills easier, moved faster than ships, and carried more weight.
This let people travel further distances for work. Leading to more towns staying stable as if people lived in one location they could take the rivers or railroad to get to the work camps and such. As prior to these developments people had to move where work was located this wasn’t required anymore. As well as this gave thousands of jobs and let jobs be more stable.
