Answer:

my answers are liberal veiws, but i hope this can help.

Explanation:

1) I personally believe that it should be protected under the first amendment as free speech. My reasoning is that when people do burn the flag it is out of representation for needed change in the government/society. When the flag is burned most people don't do it because they hate America, it happens at (some) protests when the people feel that they aren't being heard by the government. It's supposed to be a statement, something that will get people's attention. This is all a part of freedom of speech, they are trying to be heard. Though I do understand why some people don't like the burning of the flag, if you don't like it then you don't have to, and that is your right as an American. 

2)No, I don't think that an amendment to prohibit burning the flag would make it very far in the ratification process. I think this because in the past people have tried to make it a law for burning the flag to be illegal and it was not adopted. It failed because it was against our rights under the first amendment as Americans. 

(sorry i couldnt think of anything for 3 but i hope this helps)

Which one of the following statements regarding the right to freedom of association is correct?
Zanzabum

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. Freedom of association for worker entails the right to form and join trade unions.

Explanation:

The freedom of association is a fundamental right for groups of people, which has been formulated in various places. This fundamental right is sometimes used in conjunction with the freedom of assembly.

With the emergence of the new, large and important class in the form of industrial workers, there was a greater awareness of the essence of freedom, which was reflected in freedom of speech, freedom of the press and thus freedom of association. At that time it was about the principle that workers and other citizens can unite in a group (trade unions, political parties) that promote the interests of this group of people. Freedom of association is a logical feature of a liberal vision because it represents the ultimate means of exerting (political) pressure on government and society. Without this right one would not have been able to participate in the governance of a country or company. That is why this right became essential for the formation of a democratic, liberal state.
