History

Answer:

The lose of Haiti by France after the Haitian Revolution prompted it to sell Louisiana to the United States, as it was not able to defend it.

Explanation:

The Louisiana Purchase was the acquisition of 828,000 square feet of land from France by the United States in 1803.

The Louisiana area included parts of 15 current US states and two Canadian provinces. France ruled the region from 1699 to 1762, the year the region was ceded to its ally Spain by the Treaty of Fontainebleau. Under the command of Napoleon Bonaparte, France recaptured the region in 1800 in the hope of creating an empire in North America. The slave revolution in Haiti and the impending war in Britain led France to abandon these plans and sell the entire region to the United States, which initially only wanted to occupy New Orleans.

a) Describe the process that led to the Supreme Court's ruling on the challenge to the affordable care act
azamat

Answer:

The constitutionality of the Act was challenged by states based on two main grounds: 1. The issue of individual mandate; and 2. Mandatory expansion of medicaid by states.

Explanation:

The Affordable Healthcare Act otherwise known as Obamacare was a health reform Act that came into force in 2010 under the Obama administration in the United States of America which made provision for affordable health insurance for every citizen of America, and also expanded the scope of eligibility for medicaid in the United States of America. The constitutionality/legality of the Act was challenged by a total of about 26 states of the United States of America particularly on the ground that the Act imposed sanctions on states which failed to expand the medicaid, and on the ground of individual mandate to purchase health insurance violated the original Clause.

However, concerning the issue of individual mandate to buy health insurance, the Supreme Court of America upheld the constitutionality of the ACA on the ground that the congress has the valid and constitutional power to impose tax.

On the other hand, on the issue of mandatory expansion of medicaid by states, the court stated that it was optional and not mandatory for states to chose to expand the medicaid, thereby declaring the mandatory medicaid expansion by states unconstitutional.

Why do you think the Republicans rejected negotiating a peace settlement in 1864 and instead demanded the unconditional surrende
algol [13]

It is first important to understand that not all Republicans rejected a peace settlement with the Confederates during or after the Civil War, but it was a smaller group within the party that totally and completely refused and demanded a full surrender without conditions to the South. This group was called the Radical Republicans and they began around 1854 and went until after the Reconstruction of 1877. They were the ones who were responsible for the establishment of the Fourteenth Ammendment and they radically opposed any negotiations with the South on the basis of their being totally against segregation and slavery. Some other factions within the Republican party, including Lincoln, were more moderate and were willing to give in to some of the demands from the Confederates, especially ont he issue of slaves.

The reason for these radical Republicans not wanting to negotiate with the Southern Confederates, was that they refused to allow slavery to continue. They were pushing for all slaves in the U.S to be freed, for segregation to be prohibited, for rights for black people to be established in the United States and even went as far as pushing for civil rights, including suffrage, for African Americans. But the South, of course, refused these terms. This is why neither Radical Republicans, nor Confederate members would have been able to settle anything in a negotiation. There was no common ground for the toughest issue of all; slavery.
