Answer:

that people must have a say in the laws that they follow

Explanation:

Taxation without Representation was the American colonist's slogan to show their opposition to the idea of being taxed by the British Parliament of which they have no representatives. Hence, this implies that American colonists should at least have a say in the rules and regulations that govern them.

Hence, in this case, the Enlightenment idea they were demonstrating is " that people must have a say in the laws that they follow."

kodGreya [7K]
His photos explicitly give the idea of how child labor has been going on during those years. It tells a lot of things experienced by children, also, it was reinforced with captions created with the help of interviews by the children themselves. It gave ideas of how these children experienced different kinds of abuse.

The photos were gathered as basis and evidence to create protection for children. Thus in 1916, Congress passed the Keating-Owens Act because of these findings which proposed better condition and child protection on labor. However, this did not push through until the New Deal came and reforms were set.

1. In your opinion, what does the quote “the government that governs the least, governs the best” from paragraph 12 mean? Based
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The phrase "who governs less governs better" implies that any government that stays out of establishing unnecessary, bureaucratic or restrictive regulations or standards regarding the exercise of political and economic freedoms of citizens and companies of the country will obtain a better result in your government than those governments that do otherwise. This, indeed, is true, given that the governments that interfere the least in the private economy are those that have the best economic results at the end of their mandates.

Regarding Hoover's phrase, it is fallacious. Capitalism does not produce greed, but allows anyone who strives and directs his efforts towards personal growth to do so, without having a socialist state that restricts that growth through the collection of excessive taxes or the confiscation of profits.
