Answer:

Question 1: Option c. The administrative capacity of a prison is not taken into consideration when measuring overcrowding.

Question 2: Option a. During the Punitive Era large maximum security prisons like Alcatraz were built throughout the United States.

Explanation:

Prison overcrowding is a common condition in modern and old prisons and is the main reason for poor prison conditions around the world. When examining a prison's capacity, the researched will look into the rated capacity which is refers to the number of inmates that a facility can hold given the number of beds available, staff to inmate ratio and other considerations. It will also look into the operational capacity which is the number of inmates that the prison can hold safely in order to operate as it should, and the design capacity which is the number of inmates the prison was designed to hold. The administrative capacity does not interfere with the prison's overcrowding, and therefore it is not considered to measure this last concept.

The Punitive Era began after the Reformatory Era of prison industries that was used during the Industrial Era. The Punitive Era had the main philosophy of having massive prisons built throughout the country with the sole goal of punishing criminals, and without any educational and treatment programs in mind.

What are some reasons immigrants chose to move to the United States?
inn [45]

Answer:

Two options are correct here:

- They were fleeing from religious persecution.

- They wanted more economic opportunity.

Explanation:

Since the foundation of the first English colony in the New World, people who decide to emigrate to the Unites States have been often leaving religious persecution at home, or they left because they wanted to live their lives according to religious rules not accepted by mainstream practices of their time. The other powerful motive for emigration to the USA is search for economic opportunities not available in the home country, or some material motives such as escaping poverty, famine or lack of farming lands.

What did Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez do to anger United States leaders?​
dangina [55]

Answer:

He nationalized the oil reserves and the rights for extraction of the oil.

Explanation:

Venezuela is a country that is very rich in oil, in fact it is the country that officially has the largest oil reserves in the world. Considering the fact that the oil is what brings in the majority of the income of this nation, plus the communist politics, Chavez nationalized all the oil reserves and the extraction of the same fall into the hands of the government. This angered the USA officials, as they are the biggest consumer of oil and always want to have control on the situation. Chavez though stood his ground, and that made the relations between the USA and Venezuela even worse, though in all fairness Venezuela has the right to do whatever it wants with its natural resources, so the USA has no right to tell them what to do or how should they do it.

Andrew Jackson Writing Piece
klio [65]
After examining Jackson’s accomplishments compared to his shortcomings and controversies, it can be difficult to be unbiased when deciding if he should or should not be replaced on the bill. Many historians and scholars are in disagreement with each other on the topic. Some believe he should be featured on the back of the bill and not the front George Washington, the first president of the United States, appears on the $1 bill and was also a slaveholder like Jackson. Around 300 slaves lived at Mount Vernon when George Washington died. He also supported legislation upholding slavery and also opposed other legislation on slavery. He signed the fugitive slave act guaranteed a right for a slaveholder to recover an escaped slave. He also signed the Northwest Ordinance that recognized the Northwest territory and outlawed slavery within the territory. He never publicly denounced slavery as an institution, and there is no discussion of removing him from the $1 bill.

When taking a closer look at the behaviors of both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, we can see that they share similarities with Jackson. If removing Andrew Jackson from the $20 bill is considered then so should removing Washington and Jefferson. However, Jackson is far too controversial, especially in recent years. He would be in the right spot if he was moved to the back of the bill, and someone like Harriet Tubman replaced him in the front. His accomplishments earn him his place on the bill, but his controversial actions lessen what he has earned which is why he should appear on the back. Especially compared to President Abraham Lincoln, who is featured on the $5 bill, Jackson should be featured on the back of the bill. Lincoln who had some of the greatest presidential accomplishments, like the passing of the 13th Amendment and the Emancipation Proclamation
