The effect of the 16th Amendment was that b) It granted Congress the power to tax incomes. The 16th Amendment to the United States Constitution allowed Congress to levy taxes without apportioning it to that specific state or basing it on the United States Census (apportioning it to the state and according to their respective numbers) and this included all taxes except income tax.

Answer:

Explanation:

If this is the cold war, then these people were of some influence. Children were influenced by teachers. Labor leaders could lead strikes that would cripple parts of America that were dependent on labor. Government workers could do two things:

1) They could pass on information that the Government of America would not really like passed on.

2) They could influence other Government workers to see the world that they (the instigators) did.

That was the second time in the 20th century that people in certain professions were targeted and made to answer for their political beliefs. The other instance was during the McCarthy era where Joseph McCarthy went after people in high positions. Movie stars, movie directors, and movie writers were all fingered. Their courage was tested: all they had to do was name someone who was also a member of the Communist Party. McCarthy was brought down, but the hatred he generated lingered on.

Was all this right? The most sacred part of the Constitution of the United States is the First Amendment. Many have died for it, believing strongly in its sanctity. Many of those accused of being communists were ordinary citizens exercising their right to speak. The did not threaten to overthrow the government. They only wanted everyone to be treated fairly and not be subjected to the brutality of those in power.

It is never right to loose your livelihood for peacefully expressing your opinion.

There is some connection between the work of Martin Luther King Jr. and the McCarthy hate movement.  J. Edger Hoover always had it in for King and tried very hard to make the connection between King and the Communist party stick. Fortunately he couldn't

The first time was after the first world war. I don't know much about this, but I do know that it was a brutal time and the confrontation between labor and the government officials was oppressive and many lost freedoms, family and jobs over the conflict. Try to find Attorney General Palmer to learn more.

What did the government pay artists to do
pentagon [3]

Jackson Pollock, Lee Krasner, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko are best-known as pioneers of Abstract Expressionism. But all four were also among thousands of artists and other creatives employed by the government through the Works Progress Administration (WPA) between the years of 1935 and 1943. That the arts would be funded significantly by the federal government—never mind that it would actively employ artists—may well raise an eyebrow today. But working under a subdivision of the WPA known as the Federal Art Project, these artists got to work to help the country recover from the Great Depression, as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal.

Evidence of impoverishment and a portfolio showcasing one’s skills and commitment to the arts were all that was needed to qualify for the WPA initiative. This and the Federal Art Project’s non-discrimination clause meant that it attracted, and hired, not just white men but also artists of color and women who received little attention in the mainstream art world of the day. These artists created posters, murals, paintings, and sculptures to adorn public buildings.
