"The Constitution was written by the founders when they had not yet realized the vital necessity politics and parties in the pro

cess of our elections. Further, the enormous transformation of politics from part-time avocations (hobby) of public-spirited gentlemen to multi billion dollar enterprise of electoral institutions in a rich, diverse, continental Republic has not been matched by constitutional adaptation. The absence of modern politics in the Constitution--from structure of presidential selection to the manner of congressional elections to some critical aspects of electioneering, such as redistricting and campaign finance--has caused no end of difficulties, which can only be corrected by the inclusion of thoughtful provisions in a new twenty-first-century Constitution. It is long past time to do so."

 What were the arguments in favor of internal improvements financed by the government? What were the arguments against this idea
MrRissso [65]
Many of the arguments that favor internal improvements financed by the government center around economic development as a result of government spending as well as the fact that infrastructure and internal improvements are public goods which will largely not be paid for by the private sector. The arguments against it are that the government shouldn't finance these projects because the market will account for it somehow. Most individuals even if they are against government spending believe that the government should be responsible for infrastructure projects.

What is the Sugar Act i have no idea help
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Sugar Act, also called Plantation Act or Revenue Act, (1764), in U.S. colonial history, British legislation aimed at ending the smuggling trade in sugar and molasses from the French and Dutch West Indies and at providing increased revenues to fund enlarged British Empire responsibilities following the French and Indian War. Actually a reinvigoration of the largely ineffective Molasses Act of 1733, the Sugar Act provided for strong customs enforcement of the duties on refined sugar and molasses imported into the colonies from non-British Caribbean sources.

Protests had been received from America against the enforcement of the Molasses Act, together with a plea that the duty be set at one penny per gallon. Although warnings were issued that the traffic could bear no more than that, the government of Prime Minister George Grenville refused to listen and placed a three-penny duty upon foreign molasses in the act (the preamble of which bluntly declared that its purpose was to raise money for military expenses). The act thus granted a virtual monopoly of the American market to British West Indies sugarcane planters. Early colonial protests at these duties were ended when the tax was lowered two years later.

The protected price of British sugar actually benefited New England distillers, though they did not appreciate it. More objectionable to the colonists were the stricter bonding regulations for shipmasters, whose cargoes were subject to seizure and confiscation by British customs commissioners and who were placed under the authority of the Vice-Admiralty Court in distant Nova Scotia if they violated the trade rules or failed to pay duties. As a result of the Sugar Act, the earlier clandestine trade in foreign sugar and, thus, much colonial maritime commerce were severely hampered.
