Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Higher Debt is the correct answer.

During the roaring 20s, consumerism was the dominant philosophy in  American society, the stock markets were considered invincible and the economy to be growing. Consumerism led people into buying more products such as automobiles, washing machines, etc in installments. Eighty percent of the Americans in the 1920s had no savings at all. Their lives were dependent on the paychecks. while the rich one percent of people's wealth grow tremendously but the wealth of the rest of the population grew only by 9 percent, causing income divide between rich and poor. Although the economy appeared to be thriving, in reality, it was false prosperity, where most of the population had no savings. The Americans were buying more and saving less, which was a contributing factor to the great depression. it increased the amount of consumer debt.

Need help, it’s about child labor
zvonat [6]

Answer:

What is child labour

Not all work done by children should be classified as child labour that is to be targeted for elimination. The participation of children or adolescents above the minimum age for admission to employment in work that does not affect their health and personal development or interfere with their schooling, is generally regarded as being something positive. This includes activities such as assisting in a family business or earning pocket money outside school hours and during school holidays. These kinds of activities contribute to children’s development and to the welfare of their families; they provide them with skills and experience, and help to prepare them to be productive members of society during their adult life.

The term “child labour” is often defined as work that deprives children of their childhood, their potential and their dignity, and that is harmful to physical and mental development. It refers to work that:

is mentally, physically, socially or morally dangerous and harmful to children; and/or

interferes with their schooling by: depriving them of the opportunity to attend school; obliging them to leave school prematurely; or requiring them to attempt to combine school attendance with excessively long and heavy work.

Whether or not particular forms of “work” can be called “child labour” depends on the child’s age, the type and hours of work performed, the conditions under which it is performed and the objectives pursued by individual countries. The answer varies from country to country, as well as among sectors within countries.

The worst forms of child labour

The worst forms of child labour involves children being enslaved, separated from their families, exposed to serious hazards and illnesses and/or left to fend for themselves on the streets of large cities – often at a very early age.

Throughout American history, some have asserted that states (and not the Supreme Court) are the rightful judges of whether a law
lana [24]
If the states are the judges of whether a law is constitutional then what does the supreme court really do. I'm not saying that the citizens shouldn't have a say. It's just that is what the the supreme court does they make the final decision. Either way whether the state or the supreme court comes to a decision someone is going to make a decision. The disadvantage is that the states would be taking away the whole purpose of the supreme court. I guess I can say that a advantage is that as a person you feel as if your having some sort of say in how your state laws are being judged.
