Answer: C. protect new industries

Explanation:

Tariffs are charges to imported goods with the double aim of reducing imports and earning more income from them.

In the early days of industrialization, the U.S. lagged behind the more advanced European economies which meant that the Europeans could produce things cheaper than Americans and therefore sell cheaper as well.

Congress therefore believed that to protect new companies that were rising to meet the challenge they had to impose tariffs so that people would stop buying more imports and switch to the goods produced by the new industries.

How could engels back ground have affected his assessment of manchester?How might a description of the city written by a factory

GaryK [48]

Answer:Friedrich Engels was a philosopher and a communist. He saw history as a series of struggles between two social classes. He saw the development of factories and the rise of mass production as the paradigm of social abuse. He also believed that the masses that worked in these factories were alienated from the product of their labor, and that they lacked political and social power.

A factory owner would have likely seen things differently. He would have probably been happy about the rapid rate of industrialization during this time period. He would have also defended his position as owner of the means of production. Finally, it is likely that he would have seen his relationship with his employees as a fair one.
