Answer:

A living wage is defined as the minimum income necessary for a worker to meet his or her basic needs. This is not the same as a subsistence wage, which refers to a biological minimum. Needs are defined to include food, housing, and other essential needs such as clothing.

The Gilded Age also was characterized by social reform, such as women's suffrage, workplace improvements, prohibition, and civil service changes. Women were politically active and played a large role in the economy, both as workers and consumers.

Seeing that Trump has became the first president to be impeached two times, how do you feel about a president getting impeached
TEA [102]

Answer:

Tough question to answer.

Explanation:

This is a tough question to answer. Although it is in the Senate's constitutional right to conduct an impeachment trial, the Constitution states an an impeachment is only for a sitting US president and does not have much guidance for a non-sitting US president. As of now, Donald Trump is a private citizen and therefore the impeachment may not directly effect him in the same way as a sitting US president. However, an impeachment where he is found guilty will disallow him from running for office again in the future.

Although there are many arguments and opinions to this particular subject, the current impeachment seems to be more politically motivated than actually needed.
