Which two groups of people benefited from the reforms of the progressive era?

1 answer:

6 0

As in any era where reforms happen, there are winners, and losers.

The rich, Big Business benefit the most, while the middle and lower classes benefit the least
The unions benefit in that more people are wont to join for the protection they offer, and for a fair deal.
Consumers may benefit in the short term, however as we see, prices always go up, and quality always go down.

Women, Children, and the African Americans are the least groups to benefit, or were many years ago, as they had no real champions for their cause.
Hope this helps!!!!

Gideon V. Wainwright ( 1963)

Clarance Earl Gideon was accused of entering a bar and stealing money in Panama, Florida, so the police arrested him and put him in jail. At his trial, Gideon could not afford a lawyer and asked the judge to assign one. The judge resufed, and had to represent himself in court. Gideon was convicted and sentenced to five years in prision. During his sentence, he studied laws and sent a petition to the supreme court alleging that he had not been assigned a lawyer. In 1963, the supreme court ruled unanimously in favor of gideon.

The amendment to the constitution challenged in this case is the proportion of defense lawyers when the defendant does not have enough money to pay for it. In Gideon case the judge told him that Florida only provided attorneys to indigent defendants charged with crimes that might result in the death penalty if they were found guilty.

The impact that it generated is that the Constitution requieres states to provide defense lawyers for those accused of criminal offenses who commit serious crimes and who can not afford the lawyers themselves.

How did living in company town make union membership more difficult for workders

zzz [600]

Answer:

The town based union membership is quite difficult for working-class people because if the company stores couldn't sell goods to the workers who joined the union, they won't be able to benefit. Because these stores cannot benefit the union and its members and vice versa, this makes union membership in towns hard.
