Answer:it took away the importance of laws passed by Congress.

One of the problems in the Articles of Confederation was the Congress had no power to make states enforce laws. This was a problem because it took away the importance of laws passed by Congress.

The Articles of Confederation were the first Constitution in the United States. The Continental Congress proposed it in 1777 but were ratified until 1781.

Under the Articles of Confederation, the states were sovereign and had so much power. The federal government was limited. Congress could create legislation buy could not enforce it. Its "hands" were tight. Congress could only declare war, make alliances, sign treaties, run a post office, oversee relationships with Native American Indians, and appoint military officers. If Congress needed money, it had to ask the states for it.

Define the word imperialism. What is your opinion: should the U.S. Engage in imperialism? Under what circumstances? Offer a brie
Tems11 [23]

Imperialism occurs when a state government tries to exert power over a territory that does not belong to the country. This can happen directly, by territorial acquisition, or indirectly, by economic or political influence.

The United States should not engage in imperialism, because the benefits are always one-sided. While the U. S. might benefit, the other country is unlikley to do so. Moreover, if the reason for taking over the territory is out of humanitarian concern, there are many measures that the government can take before resorting to imperialism.

What did the singer do before the depression?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The singer in the song used to have plenty of jobs before the Great Depression happened. In the song, he talked about plowing the earth, which means he was probably a farmer. He also talked about building towers and railroads. This means he must have been a railroad worker or a construction worker. He took every job opportunity in order to build the nation.

Explanation:

The song entitled "Brother, Can You Spare Me A Dime?" was an American song written by<em> E.Y. "Yip" Harburg. </em>The song was made as a reflection of what happened during the Great Depression (1929-1939). This was a downturn that affected people's lives. The economies of many countries weakened due to many reasons such as global crisis, stock market crash, etc. It started in the United States and, just like a domino effect, affected other countries as well.

The song clearly describes how the Great Depression suddenly swept across the nation, when it was just actually the beginning of economic development. Many people used to have many jobs, such as those mentioned in the song by the singer. Everyone helped build the nation, but in the end, the dreams of people were torn because of the depression.
