Why were wage and price controls necessary during World War II? How were Red/Blue points used?​
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Wage and price controls were initiated by the U.S. government in 1942, in order to help win World War II (1939–1945), and maintain the general quality of life on the home front. The mission of the OPA was to prevent profiteering and inflation as durable goods became scarcer in the United States because of the war.

During World War II, price controls were used in an attempt to control wartime inflation. The Franklin Roosevelt Administration instituted the OPA (Office of Price Administration). That agency was rather unpopular with business interests and was phased out as quickly as possible after peace had been restored.

Price controls can be both good and bad. They help make certain goods and services, such as food and housing, more affordable and within reach of consumers. They can also help corporations by eliminating monopolies and opening up the market to more competition.

Despite efforts of the National War Labor Board, the shortage of labor during World War II caused sharp increases in wages. Average hourly earnings of production and nonsupervisory workers in manufacturing more than doubled between 1940 and 1949, with the largest increases during the war years, 1940-44.

25 cents per hour

Administered by the Department of Labor, the Act set a minimum wage of 25 cents per hour and a maximum workweek of 40 hours (to be phased in by 1940) for most workers in manufacturing.

How did the Border Ruffians contribute to the "Bleeding Kansas" problem?
vfiekz [6]

The Border Ruffians contribute to the "Bleeding Kansas" problem "as they forced local residents to vote for pro slavery candidates".

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

The Border Ruffians were Missouri slave-state pro-slavery demonstrators. They crossed the state border from the period 1854 -1860 to Kansas Territory as to compel slavery to be recognized there. Armed Ruffians intervened with territorial elections and hitted settlements in the Free State. The term "Bleeding Kansas" originated from this violence.

Bands of armed Ruffians occupied polling places when elections were held in Kansas Territory. They prohibited people from voting for Free-State, so they cast illegal votes. Border Ruffians voted a territorial delegate pro-slavery to Congress on 29 November 1854.

How did social darwinism explain how society operates?
Savatey [412]
Social Darwinism explained the operation of society as "survival of the fittest."

People often associate the term "survival of the fittest" with Charles Darwin, but actually it was terminology that came from Herbert Spencer, the founder of what is known as Social Darwinism. (Spencer wouldn't have called it that - he and Darwin were rivals.)   Darwin used the term "natural selection" in his descriptions of biological evolution.  Spencer was unafraid to apply the same concepts to competition within the human species, contending that the stronger, fitter social or cultural groups will survive better than others and dominate over weaker groups.

What are some limits on the legislative branch?
Vinil7 [7]
     <span> 1. The constitution - the legislative branch cannot enact laws that violate the constitution. this limit is kinda limited in that the legislative branch could vote to change the constitution, but it would be extremely difficult and would also need ratification by 2/3 of the states.

2. the president- congress can pass laws, but they are not official laws until the president signs them. the president can refuse to sign a law the legislative branch has passed or veto them. with a super majoiity the legislative branch can override a veto though.

3. the people - the people vote for who is in the legislative branch. if we dont like what they do we can vote in new guys.</span>
