Outline the attributes of the legislative branch which make it unique to the other two branches of government.
atroni [7]

Answer: When taking things into consideration, the Legislative branch is the most powerful; with its ability to create laws, borrow money, collect taxes, regulate commerce, and most importantly develop a social contract with its citizens in return of ensuring safety and maintaining order.

     Within the legislative branch, each house of Congress serves as a check on possible abuses of power by the other. Once Congress has passed a bill, the president has the power to veto that bill. In turn, Congress can override a regular presidential veto by a two-thirds vote of both houses.

Airida [17]

Answer: imposing taxes on them without their approval or representation.

Explanation: King George III is considered by many to be the mentally unstable King of England from 1760-1820. The colonists were torn between loyalty to the crown and resistance because of the way he wanted to govern the affairs of the colonists and he was largely considered a tyrant.

The colonists were very angry towards king George as regards the Townshend acts which was taxation without representation as well as the taking away some of the colonists' freedom. The acts were called duties but the colonists said they were indirect taxes and were levied on imported materials like glass, lead, paint, paper and tea.
