Why was it difficult to make changes to the article of confederation?
AVprozaik [17]
The articles gave very little power to the central government and more to the states. Therefore, when the government leaders were trying fix the articles, they really had no power to. That is why, when the leaders had the Constitutional Convention, instead of changing the articles, they had to completely throw out the articles and start over.

arlik [135]

Answer:

In early 1961 President John F. Kennedy concluded that Fidel Castro was a Soviet client working to subvert Latin America.

The brigade hit the beach at the Bay of Pigs on April 17, 1961, but the operation collapsed in spectacular failure within 2 days. Kennedy took public responsibility for the mistakes made, but remained determined to rid Cuba of Castro.

According to eugene v. debs’s speech to the jury before sentencing under the espionage act (1918), what did socialists in the un
Yuki888 [10]
Eugene V. Debs discusses how socialists in the US strive for financial and social equality among all US citizens. Debs describes how American society can be extremely unfair, as some individuals are born into wealthy families and never have to work a day in their life while other individuals work extremely hard their entire lives just to survive.

This is why Debs, and socialists in the US in general, strive for a system in which the government has more control of the means of production and the economy in general. Debs argues that all things in the US are jointly used and that it only makes sense for the government to be involved in making sure these resources are spread out equally to citizens.
