How does genocide go against human rights? 

History
1 answer:
Fantom [35]3 years ago
7 0

One of the most basic human rights is the right to live and a government has a duty to protect the lives of its people.

In other words, it should not harm people because of their religious beliefs, race, or any other attributes about them.

Now, when a nation does not value its people's right to live, tensions start growing really fast and lives are at risk. A perfect example of this was during World War II when the Nazi government killed nearly 6 million Jews which we know as the holocaust which is a systematic way of killing a group. In addition, there were about 1.5 million Armenians that died in the early 1900s when they were targeted by the government of Turkey. Both of these examples are genocides that violate the right to live and also other rights as well such as freedom of torture, rights to basic needs, etc...

Which statement best summarizes the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in McCulloch v Maryland?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The response is Option B: Establishing a national bank is an implied power of the federal government .

Explanation:

Alexander Hamilton was the first Secretary of the Treasury and he had encouraged Congress to pass a law establishing a national bank. This was, however, a controversial proposal as some states rejected the idea of having to compete with a national bank.  The power to regulate commerce through an institution such as a national bank is implied on the part of the federal government, it is not a right or role specifically spelled out in the constitution. This ruling protected the rights of the federal government by not allowing states to do something like imposing a tax on national bank transactions.

Should the US raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour? Right now it's $7.50.?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

I say no, the United States should not raise the minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour.

Explanation:

First off, raising the minimum wage would force many businesses to have to lay off employees- creating a rise in unemployment levels. This would create an estimated number of 500,000 people that would lose their jobs. It would also, ironically, create a new rise in poverty levels. If the wages are higher then the cost of production is also going to be much higher. This could have many negative effects on businesses, potentially leading to closure for many. If the minimum wage is increased, evidence shows that at least sixty percent of small businesses will be forced bankrupt. For the consumer, this also means that the price of goods will skyrocket (as the price of production increases). This then leads to increased prices in many other aspects, for example housing costs. An increased minimum wage also increases tax payments.

What are two specific legislative checks on executive branch powers?
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The President in the executive branch can veto a law, but the legislative branch can override that veto with enough votes. The legislative branch has the power to approve Presidential nominations, control the budget, and can impeach the President and remove him or her from office. Hope this helped
