Many countries used to rely on an electoral college in order to get public officials elected, however, this system has been criticized for it has been perceived of as unfair in the event of a slight majority in an electoral district overruling the votes of a great number of citizens. At a first glance, it seems to run counter to the intuitive concept of democracy, i.e., the government elected by the majorities. IN the history of the U.S. there have been two or three presidential elections won by the candidate holding the majority of the electoral colleges yet failing to obtain the absolute majority of votes.

A solution often proposed to change this is the system of direct election. Under this system, candidates running for public office can only win provided that they manage to get the absolute majority of votes cast. Statistics on the number of votes per candidate and vote ratios are usually made for informational purposes, however, they are irrelevant to determine the final outcome.

List three references where God is directly credited as the orchestrator of Job's trials.
stira [4]
One cannot merely take a cursory view of some of the common Scriptures that are from the scant armory of ammunition used to prove there is a “satan.” It would be impossible to fully explore the topic of “Satan’s” existence or absence of existence without taking a good look at the book of Job. I would like to lay out the concept of how Satan has traditionally been seen in the book of Job, and then I will submit the concept of how Satan should more correctly be viewed when considering that ancient document. After that, I will delve into an explanation of some of the passages and concepts that help us to understand exactly what is the situation with the Satan in the book of Job.

Answer:

Sumptuary laws

Explanation:

Sumptuary laws are laws designed to prevent a specific group of people from buying a specific type of goods: usually luxury goods.

After the deadly bubonic plague of 1348 to 1352, also known as the black plague, or the black death, peasants had more land available either for themselves, or to work as laborers, and their wages rose because of that. They could now afford some small luxuries like higher quality clothes.

This angered the nobility, who decided to pass sumptuary laws to prevent the peasants from buying certain type of goods.

This laws wer also passed in the cities, where the rich merchants and artisans were acquiring goods that the nobles thought should only be for them.
