Answer:

b. empties their minds

Explanation:

From the passage, the Sage/leader's only way to achieve harmony is by keeping the masses ignorant hence feeding them full and making sure that there are no ambitions since there is no knowledge.

Therefore, according to Laozi, Dao De Jing the masses can only stay in harmony if there is no contention( as a result of knowledge) in the aim to acquire value. For example if the people do not know that gold is valuable and worth a lot of money, there will be no contention to get gold or theft of gold.

Do traffic cameras save lives or violate Due Process? Or do they do a little of both? Explain?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Technically, traffic cameras fulfill a preventive function by means of which drivers who commit infractions, such as exceeding the allowed speed, are identified by the police and deposed in their conduct, to avoid accidents that may damage citizens' health.

Now, traffic cameras are also a way of violating Due Process, as they produce evidence that has not been requested by the judge, and that can be used by prosecutors who investigate the crime without any type of legal opposition by the accused.

Analyse the causes of<br>gender-based violence​
