Answer:

The full workforce in the last year of construction (1914) numbered about 45,000 to 50,000. But, the total number of white North Americans was only about 6,000, of whom roughly 2,500 were women and children. Of the remaining 44,000 workers, easily 80% were of West Indian descent.

What event showed the U.S that the Articles of Confederation were not good?
guajiro [1.7K]

<em>Shay's Rebellion</em>

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution for the United States. It is known for being very weak and giving little to no power to the national government. With the Articles of Confederation, the government could not regulate trade, draft soldiers, create and enforce laws properly, tax citizens, and other important matters.

Since the national government was so powerless, most of the power was in the hands of the people and the states. This meant that it was hard to keep people in check, which eventually caused Shay's Rebellion.

Shay's Rebellion was an uprise of farmers who did not want to lose their property and opposed high taxing. Courts were trying to take away their property, as many poor farmers could not pay their taxes. This caused many farmers to revolt, causing a few casualties. This proved the national government was too weak under the Articles of Confederation, as they could do nothing to stop this.

The correct answer is
<span>people must constantly fight enemies.

He explains that all people are equal in mind and body and this equality enables them to fight other people when they want something that belongs to them. If they were unequal then weaker would not fight the stronger but would run. This is why according to him there should be a strong leader who is prepared to fight others who would attack the country.</span>
