Patrick Henry and other Anti-Federalists were concerned about too much power winding up in the hands of the federal government and its executive branch, thus allowing a small number of national elites to control the affairs of the USA.  They feared this also would diminish the rights and freedoms of individual citizens.  They wanted a Bill of Rights in the Constitution to assure that rights and freedoms would not be compromised in any way.

The Bill of Rights, laid out in the first ten amendments to the Constitution, provided reassurance to Anti-Federalists after the fight over ratification. The US Constitution was ratified in 1788.  The Bill of Rights was created in 1789 and ratified in 1791.

The Bill of Rights protects rights and freedoms such as:

  • freedom of speech
  • freedom of the press
  • freedom of assembly
  • rights of the accused
  • due process under the law

What happens when there's excess demand?
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Short answer: the price goes up.

Explanation:

Sellers get rich.

The point of the question is to show that supply and demand are related. If the supply goes up then the price will go down because the seller will need to get rid of what he has.

If the supply can't meet the demand then the price is in favor of the seller, and the price goes up. His price can go up because the demand will still be there and the seller might as well take advantage of it.
