Pretend you are a poor person living on the east coast of the U.S. post Civil War, during Reconstruction and Westward Expansion.

You hear of a law that the government has passed called the Homestead Act where you can go out west and get cheap land. Given the fact that there is not a lot of upward mobility where you live (your grandpa was poor, your dad was poor, and your children will most likely be poor), would you be a settler and go out west? (Even though you now know in 2021 what happens to several Native American tribes).

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

No, I will not be a settler and go out west because there is no opportunity there for changing social status. There is very less job opportunities in the west so I prefer to stay in the old place and find a job to better by social status. There are more opportunities in the old place due to higher mobility as compared to the west. So that's why I choose to stay at the old place instead to be settler and go to west.

who wrote the declaration of independence and who influenced these ideas? what are unalienable rights? who helped the colonists
STALIN [3.7K]

The Declaration of Independence is written by Thomas Jefferson.

After publishing "A Summary View of the Rights of British America" in 1774, Jefferson gained a reputation as an eloquent voice for the patriotic cause, and he was tasked with writing a draught of what would become the Declaration of Independence.

The most famous ideas in the Declaration of Independence, according to most scholars today, were derived from the writings of English philosopher John Locke. Locke wrote his Second Treatise of Government in 1689, during England's Glorious Revolution, which overthrew James II's rule.

Jefferson was influenced by George Mason's Virginia Declaration of Rights, as well as his study of natural rights theory and John Locke's writings, particularly Two Treatises of Government.
