The three main issues that arose at the debates during the Constitutional Convention include: slavery, Congressional Representation (in favor of big or small states), and the new Executive branch.

Smaller states and larger states debated over representation in Congress and put forth the New Jersey plan (in favor of smaller states) and the Virginia plan (in favor of smaller states). States debated whether representation should be decided by state wealth, size, and/or population. Also debated was the issue of slavery. Many southern state economies depended on slaves and slave labor, yet many northern states asserted that slavery was unconstitutional and/or immoral. States also debated on the amount of power that should be given to the executive branch, the length of presidential terms, and how the president would be elected.

Answer: The statement provided is FALSE.

Explanation: The Tea party was a political movement formed by Republicans who were against Obama's policies, such as the health care reform known as Obamacare. However, this political organization was named after an important protest: the Boston Tea Party, which took place in 1773, that is to say during the American Revolution. In that way, the statement provided is false since the Tea Party's name does not refer to the Mad Hatter's tea party in Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.

I believe the answer is: an unconstitutional restriction of speech

Printed materials on city streets are also included within the first amendment as a part of freedom of speech. The only constitutional way for the government to restrict the speech is by proving that the content of printed materials are openly calls for violence or other destructive activities.

Answer:

E. None of these make an inflation target less credible

Explanation:

Inflation target as the name implies is the monetary policy whereby the central bank of a particular country sets a specific inflation rate as its goal with the aim to create the impression that prices of goods and services will continue to increase.
