The correct answer is A.

The Fair Labor Standards Act was issued in 1938 in the US to regulate wages and working hours. It constituted a mandatory set of rules to be followed by all employers involved in interstate trade or in the production of goods or services, with very limited exemptions. A minimum wage was set, also a maximum work week and extra retributions for those who worked over 40 hours. Minor and child labor were regulated too.

The correct answer is
<span>a. To protect the rights and wages of employees

It established a minimum wage as an idea and it also established overtime payments that had to be paid if workers worked more than what was the norm. It did include protection of children in labor but it wasn't the main thing. It didn't protect businesses or capitalism.</span>

2. Which historical development illustrates the fulfillment of Winthrops
likoan [24]

Answer:

The historical development which illustrates the fulfillment of Winthrop's argument is:

(A) Polk negotiated a compromise with the British over Oregon.

Explanation:

Between 1859 and 1872, Great Britain and the US fought a bitter war for the control of Oregon.  This war was caused by a stray pig; no wonder, the US termed it: "the Pig War."  Earlier John Winthrop had argued that the United States, the New England, was to become "a city on a hill," very conspicuous to all men.  Possession of the new land signaled an alliance with the word of God.  Failure to uphold the human part of the covenant would expose the country to ridicule.  President Polk, fighting the Pig War with Great Britain over Oregon without victory, was a sign of failure to uphold the covenant.  The country was exposed to public ridicule because the war only ended with the signing of a treaty (a form of compromise), which ceded the whole of Vancouver to Britain and then Oregon to the US.

24. Which of the following were the three pillars of absolutism in tsarist Russia?
ASHA 777 [7]

The three pillars of absolutism in tsarist Russia are "Orthodoxy, Autocracy, and Nationalism".

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Absolutism progressively evolved in Russia during the 17th and 18th centuries. It superseded the Moscow Grand Duchy's despotism. Under Byzantine principles Ivan III established and laid the groundwork for the tsarist autocracy, a structure that would rule Russia for centuries with some differences. Orthodoxy: strong ties between both the Russian Orthodox Church and the Govt; Autocracy: absolute state power; Nationalism: reverence for Russian values and abolition throughout the empire of non-Russian communities adopted by Nicholas I and not very popular.

How were strategic hamlets and kennedy's addition of thousands of us military personnel to south vietnam similar?
Masja [62]
Both programs were unpopular and unsuccessful.

The troop increases by the Kennedy administration from a few thousand to around 16,000 by the end of 1963 did little to help the Diem regime in South Vietnam.  Continued troop increases over succeeding years by the Johnson administration, up to 500,000 by 1967, still could not win the war and generated increasing protests at home.

The Strategic Hamlet Program by the South Vietnamese government (advised and funded by the US), begun in 1962, was an attempt to protect the rural Vietnamese from the influence of the communist Viet Cong.  They would build protected communities where villagers could be safeguarded and their loyalty to the South Vietnamese government be enhanced.  But the villagers themselves were not eager for these relocation plans, and the program was cancelled after the Diem regime was overthrown in 1963.
