How did consumers weaken the economy in the late 1920s? Consumers only bought a limited number of products. Consumers bought too many goods they could not afford. Consumers refused to pay high prices for goods. Consumers increased their spending and used only cash.

Answers

Consumers weakened the economy in the late 1920s because Consumers bought too many goods they could not afford.

In the Late 1920sThere was a general belied that the economy would keep on getting better. People kept borrowing more and more money to buy things that they could not afford.

This led to high amounts of loans being taken such that when there was a run on the banks by people to take back their money, the banks could not pay as they had given out loans.

In conclusion, option B is correct.

"Our properties within our own territories shall [not] be taxed or regulated by any power on earth but our own." – Thomas Jefferson, July 1774

Based on this quote, which complaint in the Declaration of Independence would Jefferson agree with?

Answers

Answer:

Taxing without representation

Explanation:

Taxing without representation without representation is one of the biggest reasons leading up to the American revolution.

At that time , the British government imposed a really high tax rate for American colonies in order to pay for it war debt. But, they did not give the colonies with any seats within the government.  This made the American colonies  have no legal measures that they can pursue to negotiate for their behalf within the government.

Thomas Jefferson was one of the figure that popularized this British Government's flaw. He stated in his writings that the only way for the colonists to erase this unfair taxation is through military's revolution.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Which one of the following hurt the colonists chances of winning the American revolution the most?
Group of answer choices

the number of loyalists in the colonies

the spirit to fight

knowledge of the land

well-trained leaders

Answers

Answer:

The number of loyalists in the colonies.

Explanation:

Those who were coined as loyalists were people in the U.S. who did not see the need to break away from Britain, and would range from just simply not supporting the revolution, to even actively fighting for Britain.

The first and second choices are correct, and would not hurt the colonists chances of winning. The fourth choice is only half correct, as the Americans received adequate leadership under George Washington, as well as training from foreign countries such as Spain and France.

Answer:By 1786, defects in the post-Revolutionary War Articles of Confederation were apparent, such as the lack of central authority over foreign and domestic commerce. Congress endorsed a plan to draft a new constitution, and on May 25, 1787, the Constitutional Convention convened at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. On September 17, 1787, after three months of debate moderated by convention president George Washington, the new U.S. constitution, which created a strong federal government with an intricate system of checks and balances, was signed by 38 of the 41 delegates present at the conclusion of the convention. As dictated by Article VII, the document would not become binding until it was ratified by nine of the 13 states.

UNMARRIED WOMEN HAD MORE JOB OPPORTUNITIES OUTSIDE THE HOME THAN MARRIED WOMEN. EDUCATED WOMAN OFTEN BECAME DOCTORS OR LAWYERS. MANY EDUCATED WOMEN BECAME SCHOOLTEACHERS.

Answers

Answer:

YOUNG WOMAN WERE BANNED FROM WORKING IN FACTORIES. - False UNMARRIED WOMEN HAD MORE JOB OPPORTUNITIES OUTSIDE THE HOME THAN MARRIED WOMEN.  - True EDUCATED WOMAN OFTEN BECAME DOCTORS OR LAWYERS. - False MANY EDUCATED WOMEN BECAME SCHOOLTEACHERS. - False

Explanation:

In 1800, employment options for women were very limited and few of them had access to formal education and when they did, it was not a vocational education, preventing them from taking up law and medical positions, for example. These women could not even be teachers, as this required a high level of education, but the better educated women could become governesses or chaperones.

However, most women did not have this privilege and were subjected to jobs as a domestic servant, washerwoman, cook, rural worker, seamstress and other less paid jobs. In addition, these jobs were more difficult for married women, since their obligations were limited to taking care of the house, husband and children.

What were the roles of the
French, British, First
Nations and Metis people in
the fur trade?

Answers

Answer:

The fur trade was a vast commercial enterprise across the wild, forested expanse of what is now Canada. It was at its peak for nearly 250 years, from the early 17th to the mid-19th centuries. It was sustained primarily by the trapping of beavers to satisfy the European demand for felt hats. The intensely competitive trade opened the continent to exploration and settlement. It financed missionary work, established social, economic and colonial relationships between Europeans and Indigenous people, and played a formative role in the creation and development of Canada.

(This is the full-length entry about the fur trade. For a plain-language summary, please see Fur Trade in Canada (Plain Language Summary).)

Fishing, Furs and Christianity: Early Euro-Indigenous Relations (1608–63)

The fur trade began as an adjunct to the fishing industry. Early in the 16th century, fishermen from northwest Europe were taking rich catches of cod on the Grand Banks off Newfoundland and in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Drying their fish onshore took several weeks. During that time, good relations had to be maintained with Indigenous people, who were eager to obtain metal and cloth goods from the Europeans. What they had to offer in exchange were furs and fresh meat. The fishermen found an eager and profitable market in Europe for the furs.

When the wide-brimmed felt hat came into fashion later in the 16th century, the demand for beaver pelts increased tremendously. The best material for hat felt was the soft underfur of the beaver. Its strands have tiny barbs that make them mat together tightly.

To exploit the trade more effectively, the first French traders established permanent shore bases in Acadia, a post at Tadoussac. They also founded a base at Quebec in 1608. The following year, the Dutch began trading up the Hudson River. In 1614, they established permanent trading posts at Manhattan and upriver at Orange (now Albany, New York). This activity marked the beginning of an intense rivalry between the two commercial empires of the Dutch and the French. It also involved their respective Indigenous allies, the Huron-Wendat and the Haudenosaunee, both of whom were supplied with guns by their European allies. (See also: Indigenous-French Relations.)

Indigenous peoples were important partners in this growing fur trade economy. From roughly 1600 to 1650, the French forged alliances of kinship and trade with the Huron-Wendat, Algonquin and Innu. These peoples helped the French collect and process beaver furs and distribute them to other Indigenous groups throughout their vast trade network, which was established well before the arrival of Europeans. The fur trade provided Indigenous peoples with European goods that they could use for gift-giving ceremonies, to improve their social status and to go to war. The French forged military alliances with their Indigenous allies in order to maintain good trade and social relations. In the 17th century, the French fought against the Haudenosaunee in the struggle for control over resources. This was known as the Beaver Wars or the French and Iroquois Wars.

During the first half of the 17th century, the number of traders flooding into the St. Lawrence River region, and cutthroat competition among them, greatly reduced profits. In an attempt to impose order, the French Crown granted monopolies of the trade to certain individuals. In return, the monopoly holders had to maintain French claims to the new lands and assist in the attempts of the Roman Catholic Church to convert Indigenous people to Christianity.

In 1627, Cardinal Richelieu, first minister of Louis XIII, organized the Compagnie des Cent-Associés to put French territorial claims and the missionary drive on a firmer footing. Four Récollets missionaries were sent to Québec in 1615. They were followed in 1625 by the first members of the powerful Society of Jesus (Jesuits). A mission base, Ste Marie Among the Hurons, was established among the Huron-Wendat near Georgian Bay. However, the Huron-Wendat were more interested in the trade goods of the French than in their religion. And it was fur-trade profits that sustained the missionaries and allowed the company to send hundreds of settlers to the colony. In 1642, Ville-Marie (now Montreal) was founded as a mission centre. In 1645, the company ceded control of the fur trade and the colony’s administration to the colonists. (See also: Communauté des habitants.) Unfortunately, they proved to be inept administrators, and fur-trade returns fluctuated wildly. Finally, after a desperate appeal by the colonial authorities to Louis XIV, the Crown took over the colony in 1663.

An amendment to the Maryland Constitution is passed to limit the uses of revenues acquired through casinos and other gambling entities to be appropriated for educational purposes

A. County Council (Local)
B. Congress (Federal)
C. General Assembly (State)

Answers

Answer:

C. General Assembly (State)

Explanation:

Given that the question stated "amendment to the Maryland Constitution." This implies that the issue is related to the State, therefore the body to pass the Constitution of the state is known as the "General Assembly" belonging to the state.

This is evident in the fact that the primary function of the General Assembly is to pass laws vital for the interest of the State.

Maryland General Assembly constitutes 188 members, 47 senators, and 141 delegates.

A. Paragraphs 1-2

B. Paragraphs 3-4

C. Paragraphs 6-7

D. Paragraphs 8-9

5. How does the author support their claim that the Union suffered a "terrible defeat" at Ball's Bluff? Cite evidence from the text in your response.

Answers

Answer:

1A, 2B, 3A, 4D, 5 "As still more Confederates joined in the battle, they forced the Union soldiers back to the edge of the bluff. Some fell or jumped to their deaths while many stumbled down the deep slope." The eighth paragraph is evidence too.
