Lerok [7]

I  think the cartoonist is trying to say about the possibility of a labor union revival is slim since the labor union are asleep, not working and not even willing to take the offer given to them and also the labor union is much more interested in bigger offer.

<h3>What is the main purpose of labor unions?</h3>

The key purpose of labor unions is so that workers may have the power to negotiate in terms of good and favorable working conditions.

The  benefits of this union can be gotten via collective bargaining which is known to be the heart of the labor union.

How do you feel about the Three-Fifths Compromise? Was it a wise decision by the framers of the constitution to keep the nation
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

I think the three-fifths compromise was a poor attempt to delay the inevitable. I think that it would have been better to address slavery sooner. I think it should have been adressed when the constituion and bill of rights were written. I understand that it would have been a divisive issue but if you claim that "All men are created equal" and then turn around and dehuminaze other people than it makes you a hypocrite becuase you cannot just pick and choose who is and who is not considered human.

The three-fifths compromise did not do anything for the rights of the slaves in fact it dehumanized them even more and caused the civil war to start even sooner. If they had at least counted everyone as a human not only would it have possibly delayed the war but there may have been a way to keep the plantation owerners happy by saying they would have to pay anyone who worked for them and could not abuse them. If the slaves were treated as an entire person then they would have gained the population needed for more representation. It would have also helped them get the freedom they desereved and possibly avoid the civil war. It would have also helped the southern economy to have a higher and eventually more educated population. One cause of the civil war was the signfict difference in the economies in the north versus the south.
