The correct answer to this open question is the following.
It seems that you are missing the question. You only attached a statement. If it is a true or false question, then the correct answer is "true."
It is true that too many regulations (often devised with good intentions) leads to unintended consequences and tend to help bigger businesses with money and connections in Washington while hurting smaller businesses.

Other businessmen belong to interest groups that have their own agendas and are always trying to influences legislators to approve the kind of laws that favor their companies.

Answer:
D) Warn or remind his congregation that the nation as a whole must repent their sins and ask forgiveness from God to escape hell.

In this activity, you will discuss the hypothetical scenarios below, and evaluate the president's decision in each of the cases below. You should draw upon your knowledge of the formal powers of the president outlined in Article II of the Constitution as well as the informal powers and roles enjoyed by modern presidents. Answer in complete sentences.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you did not include the hypothetical scenarios, so we do not have that reference. However, doing some research we can say that one hypothetical scenario would be the following.
The President issues an order that women in the armed forces may now serve in direct combat capacity during wartime.
If this is the case, then we can comment on the following.
According to the formal powers of the president outlined in Article II of the Constitution, the President of the United States is the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces: Army, Navy, Airforce, and Coast Guard. So the President has the power to issue orders in this regard.
This act is constitutional because it is included in the above-mentioned section of the COnstitution of the United States. As the Commander-in-Chief he is, he can order whatever he considers is necessary for the security of the nation and for the most benefit of the troops.

Please help!!!!! | How did the mining industry change the Indian Territory? Explain its positive and negative effects on the territory’s future.
Answer:
The mining industry brought many new opportunities to the Indian Territory. It helped the territory develop quickly, encouraged companies to build more railroads, helped fund the construction of new towns, and supported other growing industries. It also provided money for tribes, who took royalties, sold permits, and leased land to miners. However, the industry also took power and control away from the tribes that lived in the territory. Although the tribes found ways to profit from mining, new immigrants poured into the territory and started new towns and settlements. The industry was often dangerous, and unions fought to protect workers’ rights and needs.
