Explanation:
The Homestead strike was a combination of both a company lockout (the company didn't allow workers to work) and a union strike (where the workers did't want to work). It was a power struggle between one of the darkest and sinister monopolists of the 19th century, Carnegie Steel (led by Andrew Carnegie) and the most powerful workers' union in America, the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers.
In 1889 the union won, but Carnegie wanted revenge, so in 1892, he demanded harsher conditions after the initial contract was over and when the union said no, a lockout started. It was bloody and messy, with 16 dead. Carnegie's private army of 300 guards faced 10,000 strikers and things turned ugly soon. The Pinkertons (Carnegie's troops) were "defeated" but too many lives were lost.
Since Carnegie's little was defeated, he asked a bigger fish to help him and the governor sent 8,000 soldiers to arrest any union striker that opposed Carnegie. Finally, Carnegie's millions and corrupt politicians won, and the workers were forced to accept lower wages and more working hours. Those who rejected the forced deal were sent to prison.

Explanation:
Immigration attractiveness is a factor that draws immigrants to a foreign country. A country becomes more attractive when the economic prospects are brighter than at the home-country. The degree of immigration law enforcement also helps to either attract or deter potential migrants. In recent years, wars and misgovernment have propelled millions to move boundaries. At the same time, countries are imposing migration restrictions by imposing and implementing strict laws.
Answer:
What I feel would be appropriate to be delivered electronically:
- Sending Daily report
- Requesting invoice for petty cash
- Working schedule
- Creating list of tasks.
I think every activities that does not necessarily need a lot of human communication should be delivered electronically . it just safe a lot of time and make it accessible anywhere you want.
What i feel would be better delivered in traditional setting:
- Brainstorming
- Firing people
I believe group brainstorming will be more efficient if team members spare their time to gather together in a private setting and focus on doing so. Doing it electronically will make it hard to communicate and some team members might not focusing on the task.
Firing people also should be done face-to-face. Even though this person is about to be kicked out of the team, we need to know that we appreciate what they've done to the team. Firing using electronic media just seems cold and impersonal.
Population - 50,000
Employed - 45,000
Students not looking for work - 1,000
To calculate Boone's unemployment rate you'll use the formula:
Unemployment rate = number of people unemployed / labor force
Those that fall into the unemployment category are those that are not working but are actively looking/wanting to work. Students, stay-at-home moms etc that are not wanting to work, though unemployed, to not fall into this category.
The labor force is made up of everyone willing and able to work.
First, let's subtract the students who are not looking for work from the population so get the labor force. 50,000 - 1,000 = 49,000 (labor force)
Next, to get the number of people unemployed let us subtract the labor force of 49,000 by those already employed of 45,000. 49,000 - 45,000 = 4,000
Finally, we are able to calculate the unemployment rate of Boone.
Unemployment rate = number of people unemployed / labor force
Unemployment rate = 4,000/49,000= .081 multiply by 100 to get the percentage. 8.1%
Unemployment rate of Boone is 8.1%

Explanation:
Gifts are only taxed when their fair market value is higher than $15,000. Any gifts made to your spouse are not taxable. Gift taxes are calculated on a per person base, as long as they do not exceed the lifetime exemption (which is $11.58 million).
The tuition costs of her niece are not taxable since they are less than $12,000. The stocks given to his wife are not taxable either. The only taxable gift is the land given to his sister which had a FMV of $25,000. The taxable amount = $25,000 - $15,000 = $10,000
