There was great tension between pro-slavery and anti-slavery representatives over how new territories won would handle the issue of slavery.

The Mexican-American War and the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, forced onto the remnant Mexican government,  drew some criticism in the U.S. for their casualties, monetary cost, and heavy-handedness. Furthermore, the question of how to treat the new acquisitions also intensified the debate over slavery and in many ways inflamed it, as potential westward expansion of the institution took an increasingly central and heated theme in national debates preceding the American Civil War.

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Según David Ricardo, el proceso productivo no es un proceso natural ya que la naturaleza no es generosa con el hombre, a no ser que este la convierta en productiva y la adecue a sus intereses. En otras palabras, la renta surgía en un país no a causa de la liberalidad de la naturaleza sino de la avaricia, por lo tanto, la riqueza implicaba la pobreza de unos y el enriquecimiento de otros. Lo anterior significa que la acumulación de capital no es el nacimiento de una nueva riqueza sino el empobrecimiento de otros, porque  LO QUE GANABAN LOS TERRATENIENTES EN LA TIERRA LO PERDÍAN QUIENES TRABAJABAN EN ELLA.

Explanation:

David Ricardo fue un economista británico. Quizás su contribución más importante a la ciencia económica fue la ley de la ventaja comparativa, un argumento fundamental a favor del libre comercio entre países. Ricardo argumentó que el comercio (o intercambio) era beneficioso para ambas partes involucradas, incluso si una de las partes (por ejemplo, un país rico en recursos) era más productivo en cada área que su socio comercial (por ejemplo, un país pobre en recursos), siempre que ambas partes se concentraran en eso actividades donde tenían una ventaja relativa de productividad.

Ahora bien, estas ventajas no eran equitativamente distribuidas entre sus productores a distintos niveles: según su teoría de la renta diferencial, la renta de la producción económica se distribuía de forma desigual, siendo mayor para quien menos producía (el terrateniente), mientras el trabajador, que era el principal productor de riqueza, recibía una pequeña porción de esta. De esta forma, Ricardo interpretaba la renta de la tierra como el principal factor de riqueza de su época.
