The late 19th-century United States is probably best known for the vast expansion of its industrial plant and output. At the heart of these huge increases was the mass production of goods by machines. This process was first introduced and perfected by British textile manufacturers.
In the century since such mechanization had begun, machines had replaced highly skilled craftspeople in one industry after another. By the 1870s, machines were knitting stockings and stitching shirts and dresses, cutting and stitching leather for shoes, and producing nails by the millions. By reducing labor costs, such machines not only reduced manufacturing costs but lowered prices manufacturers charged consumers. In short, machine production created a growing abundance of products at cheaper prices.
Mechanization also had less desirable effects. For one, machines changed the way people worked. Skilled craftspeople of earlier days had the satisfaction of seeing a product through from beginning to end. When they saw a knife, or barrel, or shirt or dress, they had a sense of accomplishment. Machines, on the other hand, tended to subdivide production down into many small repetitive tasks with workers often doing only a single task. The pace of work usually became faster and faster; work was often performed in factories built to house the machines. Finally, factory managers began to enforce an industrial discipline, forcing workers to work set--often very long--hours.
One result of mechanization and factory production was the growing attractiveness of labor organization. To be sure, craft guilds had been around a long time. Now, however, there were increasing reasons for workers to join labor unions. Such labor unions were not notably successful in organizing large numbers of workers in the late 19th century. Still, unions were able to organize a variety of strikes and other work stoppages that served to publicize their grievances about working conditions and wages. Even so, labor unions did not gain even close to equal footing with businesses and industries until the economic chaos of the 1930s.
I believe that they are the following:
1. Monarchs do not have absolute authority.
2. The monarchs must have parliament's consent to suspend laws, levy taxes, or maintain an army.
3. The monarch cannot interfere with parliamentary elections and debates.
4. The people have a right to petition the government and to have a fair and speedy trial by a jury of their peers.
Answer: The answer is C
Explanation: A bill can be either PUBLIC, meaning that its contents and the discussion surrounding it are open to anyone, or PRIVATE, [ meaning that most discussions about the bill take place behind closed doors and are not widely known. ]
I'll answer just your first question. On Brainly, it's good to post separately for each question you have.
In the 1920s, people were so eager to invest and earn profits through the stock market that they bought stocks "on margin." In other words, they paid for only a marginal percentage of the stocks with their own funds, and borrowed bank funds for the rest of the purchase. By the late 1920s, 90% of the purchase price of stocks was being made with borrowed money. This inflated the market in a way that spiraled out of control, and in 1929 the market crashed.
In response to the market crash and the beginning of the Depression, the Smoot-Hawley Tariff (officially the Tariff Act of 1930) tried to protect American jobs by imposing heavy tariffs on imported goods. But what this did was to provoke other countries to impose their own tariffs as a response. As a result, world trade was greatly diminished and the Depression spread globally.
