American Government

[Horry For 3!]

Are there anyone good at American Government, I have the final Tuesday and I have like 5 questions left on my review to answer and I can't find the answers. I'll post the questions to see if anyone knows the answer. Anyone out there that is willing to help me?

6. Which of the following requires auto-manufactures to reduce auto-emissions or face fines.


8. Writers of the Cons ution were torn between what? What did they want out of government? What did they fear out of government? (I could probably find this one)


44. Anti-trust regulations reduce inequality by doing what?


45. When the government breaks up a company or organization, what was meant to happen?


47. The first popular spurt in favor of government regulation was prompted by what?


All of those questions I have no idea besides #8.

I think number 6 is the Clean Air Act and 47 may have something to do with the book The Jungle by Upton Sinclair that had something to do with terrible working conditions in the Chicago meat packing plants.

I may be wrong.

I remember him talking about the meat packing plants now that you mentioned that, I think you may be right. Excellent. Thanks.

Torn between decisions about representation in Congress (big states wanted to be represented according to population, while that was unfair to smaller states, so they decided on a bicameral legislature), who would have the right to vote (they left it to the states), and how to count the slaves for population and tax purposes (3/5 Compromise). And they feared a powerful central government.

Alright, between 2 websites, everyone has answered the questions. Thanks all now I can study

Horry # 45 has to do with market monopolies, dealing with An rust Laws that intend to promote greater economic compe ion. Refer to the Clayton An rust act of 1914.

Hope this helps

44 & 45 I believe are related. Anti-Trust reduce inequality by creating more open compe ion between businesses. 45: Govern breaks up company to keep them from forming monopolies and keeping compe ion open and thus prices lower.

I'd have to go with Roosevelt.

Horry, nothing personal but I'm going to rant here about many students in general....


These are very simple and fundemental tenants of American history/government. There is tons of information a google away if not in your notes. I don't understand why so many students - especially those in college - want information liket his spoonfed to them.

This is one reason BA/BS degrees are worth so little now. The sad fact is that universities are graduating students who need reviews as simple as this broken down. Take some ini ave and use the index in your history text book and I guarntee you can find the answers to each one of those questions.

I can't tell you how often I've been asked to "give" someone answers for a review. The point of going to college and taking these courses isn't to regurgitate information. It is to learn the importance of that information and understand why it is important to begin with.

I know people with UTSA degrees in subjects such as English who display high school literacy levels. I'm really sad that a 4 year degree is now the equivilant of a high school diploma.

I know someone in college who could not do multiplication tables. How do you graduate w/out that?

You know the higher education system in this country is ed up when Shaq has his masters.

Jekka is in all upper level history classes that should only be filled with juniors and seniors at UTSA and at one point this semester one of her professors had to give a 30 minute lecture on what a thesis statment is and how to develop it.

What the ? Freshman comp anyone?

Edit: Manny stole my example.

Actually some of those questions are not even in the book. One of my friends told me one of the answers and I remembered about the professor talking about it but I must have forgot to put it in my notes as well as midgetonadonkey with his answer and I forgot to put it in my notes. Also I did google all those questions and couldn't find anything.
