Some people have said the most important words in our Constitution are the first three words of the Preamble. These are the word
ankoles [38]
I agree.

First, let's take a look at the beginning of the Gettysburg Address:

"Fourscore and seven years ago our father's brought forth, on this continent, a new nation, concieved in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal..."

(This is off the top of my head so please forgive me if I missed a few words or punctuation.)

When writing this, Abraham Lincoln was giving the citizens of the United States a bit of a history lesson. He explains that the Founding Fathers believed "all men were created equal" and implicitly states that him and everyone else share a common ancestor when he says, "...our fathers."

With that, let me explain why I wholeheartedly agree that "We the People," is the most important phrase in the Constitution:

That small excerpt from the Preamble creates a sense of togetherness, liberty, and suprisingly, justice. Before America gained it's independence, there was no "We the People." There was a monarch who did as he wished. There wasn't any so called, "free speech" and there certainly wasn't a sense of togetherness. Once 'Merica cut ties with the Tories and gained independence, they had to establish their own government. So the Founding Father's, dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, upheld a government that is not a monarchy but a democracy. A democracy is a "government by the people, exercised either directly or through elected representatives." In England, you Americans did not have that choice of electing individuals to rule. You did not have a choice as a people. Well in America, you/we were granted freedom and free speech. And now that "we the people" are all "created equal" we can look back to those first three words of the Preamble and see the important history behind them.

Which of the following choices did not contribute to the second industrial revolution
Valentin [98]

Answer: C. increased taxes and tariffs

Explanation:

This second revolution was driven by a combination of policy and technology.

The belief in laissez-faire economics  meant that the government largely stayed away from business intervention which led to companies pursuing strategies that prioritised profit over welfare and thus led to the rapid increase in factories and industry as the rich invested more knowing they could make large profits.

The invention of the battery and development carbon filament lamps by Edison and Swan as well as the Transcontinental railroad contributed as well.

Taxes and Tariffs would not have contributed as it would have dissuaded investment.
