If you had come to America to practice your Quaker religious
beliefs, chances are you would have settled in Pennsylvania. The father of
William Penn was a Quaker and a charter was granted to William Penn by the
crown of England to name a colony after his father. Pennsylvania is now just 14
miles away in the south of Philadelphia. This is the main reason why it is
correct to feel that Pennsylvania is the place to practice Quaker religious beliefs
for any person.

<u>Effects of laissez-faire capitalism:</u>
- Laissez-faire capitalism allows companies to compete freely with each other in an open marketplace.
- Without costs of government regulation, businesses can grow faster.
- This leads to price increases for the consumer and the lack of diversification in the marketplace.
- Without restrictions from the government, there is more incentive for innovation, and technological advances can take place.
- This can result in a large wealth gap in a society with a few very rich people in control of the majority of the economy's wealth.
- Capitalism (or laissez faire) feeds and clothes and houses more people at higher levels than any other system.
- Workers have more rights, and have a comfortable work environment.
- Lots of government involvement and regulation raises cost and slows growth.
