Why do all states not have bicameral legislature?

History
1 answer:
Ksju [112]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

[I]n the state context, I think there's a relatively easy way to do this—have fewer legislators! At the national level, we have a bicameral legislature because of the overall workings of the federal system. But the non-Nebraska states have bicameral legislatures for no real reason. If you simply eliminated the lower houses, you'd end up with substantially fewer state legislators. Then you could pay them more and offer them more staff. It'd also be easier for citizens to keep track of who their elected officials actually are (can you name who represents you in your state legislature?) and make the electoral competition for the seats more fearsome.

Open question: why do states have two chambers? (Seriously).

The U.S. Senate is the product of a compromise between the states. Why do states need to emulate that model? Going back even futher, do we want to follow the lead of a parliamentary system where 1/2 of the leadership was traditionally filled because of birthright? I'm a big fan of the U.S. Senate. I just don't get why there needs to be a New York Senate.

In what ways did the Nazi state seek to establish control over its people​
dimulka [17.4K]

The Nazi state sought to establish control in many ways, such as when Adolf Hitler became Chancellor in 1933 and made the first Decree which was passed Feb. 28, 1933, the first Decree abolished all rights the people had in Germany such as freedom of speech, press, and assembly. The Decree also set up concentration camps and sent communists and jews there. On March 3rd, 1933 the Enabling Act was passed, the Act established Hitler's dictatorship in Germany, banning all other political parties. The Nazis took control of the military, media, and judiciary matters of the country. this Act also granted the Gestapo, the Secret Service, and the police large amounts of authority over society, this allowed the Gestapo detain people in their torture chambers, send them to concentration camps and deport them at will.

Do you think that foreign aid is important? Is it a good idea for your tax dollars to be spent for the benefit of others in diff
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think Foreign aid helps fight AIDS and other diseases like Ebola. It is used to respond to disasters in some of the world's poorest countries. Food aid is reaching the vulnerable in South Sudan and other countries affected by a hunger crisis. International assistance feeds, educates and keeps children healthy. No for the second question because you don’t know if that person will be willing to do the same for you and your country.
