The ERA meaning the<em> Equal Rights Amendments</em> was formulated by the woman party in 1923. this right proposed that <em>equality of right under the law shall not be abridged by the united states or any other state on the account of gender.</em>

The women group which succeeded in passing the amendment for proposal in the congress became the group which continued to to be a leading voice in pushing for the amendment .

<h3>Those who opposed the ratification</h3>
  • Conservative group
  • Religious group

These groups pushed against the ratification and was the major region of party against the ratification.

Phyllis Schlafly, a prominent leader of the conservative group opposed campaign against the ERA.

A key point she focused on was that:

  • Women would be subject to military draft and combat service in the same way as men.

This became the major reason why the amendment failed as there was to be a number of states that would be in support of the ratification.

Which best explains why Florida viewed President Abraham Lincoln as a threat? Lincoln was anti-slavery and Florida voters feared
Monica [59]

Answer:

A). Lincoln was anti-slavery and Florida voters feared he would start a war to prevent the practice of owning enslaved persons.

Explanation:

The key reason for Florida considering Lincoln(who was the president at the time) as a threat was '<u>Lincoln's anti-slavery attitude which made the voters of Florida fear that he might move to the extent of beginning a battle for the rights of slaved and against the ones who own them</u>.' He even says, 'if slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong.' Since Lincoln believed in leading the nation with morality, ethics, and constitution, this made Florida to think twice that his abolitionist attitude may pose a threat to them. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Which of these would you find in a monarchy but not in a democracy?
horrorfan [7]

I would say the best answer to this question would be option C "unelected head of state." Just because monarchy is like a kingdom and the throne can be handed down to anyone who doesn't have to be elected. It isn't none of the other options because the United States has a democracy and also has a constitution, political parties, and representatives who make laws. While monarchy is ran by a king.

Hope this helps.

Business people in intense competition with each other to produce a better, less expensive product or service are and always has been good for the economy of any country. When businesses are allowed to become too big to fail, to hire trained gunslingers in the form of expensive lobbyists and contribute heavily to the campaigns of candidates who provide those businesses favors, privileges, subsidies, tax cuts, etc., they cease to be good for the economy of our country. Business owners hate unions because it gets in the way of them making money. The ego maniacal business owner values profit above treating employees with dignity or as a human being at all. Forcing an employee to skip lunch is the difference between earning $100 to $0.00. Unions are hated because they force business owners to do the right thing. Sometimes what is right keeps them from maximizing their profits. There are labor laws, however can be ignored when greed is involved. Most employers get away with it as opposed to employers who have employees with unions.
