Who do you think benefited most from my the system of share cropping?

History

Answer: A) Landowners.

Explanation:

Sharecropping is practice whereby a person rents land from the landowner to enable them farm the land. At the end of the year, they would give a portion of their produce to the landowners.

This was practiced in the South after the Civil War and massively benefitted the landowners because the sharecroppers were usually newly freed Black Americans who were pushed into debt due to the Sharecropping system.

This happened because the tools to grow on the land also had to be rented from the white landowners and with the price of cotton falling and with the crop sometimes failing, the sharecroppers would owe whatever they were supposed to pay that year regardless.

If they could not pay after sometime, they had to sign contracts that made them stay and work as labor until they could pay off the debt which gave the white landowners free labor for doing nothing.

How did the heritage foundation become more than just another Washington “think tank”
liberstina [14]
The result, called Mandate for Leadership, epitomized the intellectual ambition of the then-rising conservative movement. Its 20 volumes, totaling more than 3,000 pages, included such proposals as income-tax cuts, inner-city “enterprise zones,” a presidential line-item veto, and a new Air Force bomber.

Despite the publication's academic prose and mind-boggling level of detail, it caused a sensation. A condensed version -- still more than 1,000 pages -- became a paperback bestseller in Washington. The newly elected Ronald Reagan passed out copies at his first Cabinet meeting, and it quickly became his administration’s blueprint. By the end of Reagan’s first year in office, 60 percent of the Mandate’s 2,000 ideas were being implemented, and the Republican Party’s status as a hotbed of intellectual energy was ratified. It was a Democrat, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who would declare in 1981, “Of a sudden, the GOP has become a party of ideas.”

When writing the Constitution of the United Staes, the Founding Fathers actually discussed abolshing slavery. Why do you think t
Virty [35]

Although many of the Founding Fathers acknowledged that slavery violated the core American Revolutionary ideal of liberty, their simultaneous commitment to private property rights, principles of limited government, and intersectional harmony prevented them from making a bold move against slavery. The considerable investment of Southern Founders in slave-based staple agriculture, combined with their deep-seated racial prejudice, posed additional obstacles to emancipation.
