The mercantile system believed the wealth of the world was a fixed amount, measured primarily in gold and silver accumulated. The system promoted a nation selling its products abroad but not needing to buy from others, or imposing heavy tariffs if importing anything. Colonies were created to provide raw materials and resources to the mother country and a market for the mother country's products. Commerce was heavily controlled by the government through charters granted to specific trading companies.
As one example, Great Britain strove to achieve its mercantilism goal by using the American colonies as a way of enriching the British home government. Britain also sought to control shipping by a dominant navy and merchant marine.
"Mercantilism" is a term we get from Scottish philosopher Adam Smith (1723-1790). Smith criticized what he called the "mercantile system" because it restricted trade and thus restricted economic growth. Smith countered by advocating a free market -- the opportunity for all nations to increase their wealth by exchanging goods freely with one another according to what would become known as capitalist principles.
"<em>There can be no friendship and harmony with white people; we must learn to live seperately</em>." were words said by Marcus Garvey who illustrates the importance of blacks to start and own businesses and creation of social institutions for blacks through the United Negro Improvement Association which he founded. Marcus also revealed that blacks had no desire to be white they were proud of their race. Marcus further believed that true reconciliation with whites was impossible; therefore he urged blacks to build up their own communities and plan for a future that would be separate from the white world.
Answer: The answer is B) The federal government could not raise money by collecting taxes.
Explanation: This was only a few years after the Revolutionary War. The country had war debts they had to pay back and if they didn't have money from taxes to pay then they couldn't pay their debts. However, this is a bit ironic since one of the reasons the fought for independence from Great Britain was because they thought taxes violated their right as citizens and now the US government wanted to tax them.
