The Declaration of Independence was <u>not</u> "objective and unbiased," because it strongly represented the position of the colonists over against the British.

The fact that the Declaration had a strong position favoring independence and against the British government doesn't mean that Thomas Jefferson, in authoring it, did not try to include some points of fact to support the position the colonies were asserting.  Jefferson provided a list of "facts to be submitted to a candid world" to demonstrate that the British king had been seeking to establish "an absolute Tyranny over these States" (the colonial states which were declaring their independence).  

Jefferson's list included items such as:

  • The king refused to assent to laws that were wholesome and necessary for the public good.
  • The king had forbidden colonial governors to enact laws or implement laws without his assent (which, as the prior point noted, he was in no hurry to give).
  • The king forced people to give up their rights to legislative assembly or forced legislative bodies to meet in difficult places that imposed hardships on them.
  • The king dissolved legislative assemblies and then refused for a long time to have other assemblies elected.
  • The king obstructed justice in the colonies and made judges dependent on his will alone for their salaries and their tenure in office.
  • The king kept standing armies in place in the colonies in peacetime, without the consent of the colonial legislatures.
  • The king imposed taxes without the colonists' consent.

These and additional items listed in the Declaration were meant to support the colonies' position that tyranny was standard operating procedure by the British monarchy, and therefore revolution was justified.

Explain how New Mexico business became dependent on prison labor
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Because it encourage the use of profit oriented private prisons.

Explanation:

New Mexico became dependent on prison Labour because the country had no quality jobs and the education standard was poor. As a result of this many citizens had to take on several illegal jobs just to make a living. This led to the apprehension and detention of most of this citizens over the years.

Over the years New Mexico's economic situation became worse and this only increased the number of incarcerated people within the country. Due to this, private prison coperations such as Corecivics, GEO groups, MTC came into the country and there was an introduction of private prisons which were then used as a means of generating profit from using inmates for business purposes.
