Inheritance Tax

It is unfair to take away natural resources that are pivotal to the survival of these tribes all for an economic push. These people are living in poverty while companies such as Energy Transfer Partners make nearly five billion dollars off of land that is not theirs. If these companies took as much time and energy into talking to the indigenous people of America as they do destroying their land for resources, maybe we would have found a better solution by now that would benefit both sides. For centuries, indigenous people were arrested and forced to assimilate for behaving and looking differently than other Americans, but now a major corporation knowingly withholds a proper investigation on the environment and they still get to continue. It is

Also, at the time the railroad companies began to have issues, so they increased prices for shipping as well as making the middlemen take more money from the farmers. The farmers then had to mortgage their farms for credit. This created the Panic of 1893. Railroads went bankrupt, stocks fell, businesses and banks collapsed. Life wasn’t easy for anyone living in the west at the time, that included the Native

Additionally, Meiji leaders committed to strengthen their currency, shrinking the money supply to avoid inflation and other methods to boost the economy’s power. Nevertheless, this new tax reform harmed the farmers, since they had to pay the same amount of taxes even if they had a bad harvest and they had to put the lower princes on their sellings  as a consequence of the deflation. Meiji leaders focused their efforts in transforming the economy to an industrial one, where was promoted technological industrialization by importing new machinery and develop equipments. Old factories were bought by new private businessmen, helping the economy growth. Nonetheless, Japanese workers also helped the economy as well, women and men under very poor working environment, worked to produce many goods for exportation.

Serfs paid back for what the lord gave them by providing labor, primarily. The specific services asked for included farming fields, caring for livestock, and other tasks on the manor (Nardo 27). The amount of labor that was required of serfs varied from manor to manor and based on the amount of land the serf farmed for himself (Bennett 103). What was common, however, was that serfs owed two types of work to their lord: week-works and boon works (Bennett 106). Week-works were the work that was done on a weekly basis, and boon works were done as extra labor occasionally throughout the year (Bennett 106).

To make matters worse, the total death toll of the Great War and the Spanish Influenza that followed it numbered in the tens of millions, a loss of life that meant Europe’s economies had been robbed of the talents and brains of an entire generation of young men. In addition to this, the Allied nations owed the United States $30 billion worth of loans that had been used to finance their war effort. The United States had raised $20 billion from the sale of Liberty war bonds to support the Allied cause, complemented by an additional $10 billion raised from taxes on wealthy individuals and corporations. Furthermore, the American economy had just experienced the

Louis XVI had a huge role in causing the French Revolution. However it was not just Louis who caused the French Revolution, there was bad harvest which led the people hungry and there were the very angry peasants. Louis played a large role in causing the French Revolution. For example, he was a very stupid because he did not lead the country properly because he was more interested in making clocks rather than ruling the country and that lead to his wife to interfere with the running of the country and had gained more power than she already had. Another reason for why Louis was blamed was the unhappiness of the third estate.

Germany went through a great depression, the government tried to make more money to make the depression go away but this was the worst thing the German government could have done. This caused hyper-inflation. The Treaty of Versailles hurt Germany significantly by hurting their armed forces limiting their army to 100,000 men, hurt their economy and industry by losing the Saar region and Prussia losing fertile farming land due to the agreement of the Treaty of Versailles, along with the other major impacting factors Germany had Kaiser and Germany had to pay approximately 6,600 million pounds.

Wars and battles are not fought without each side facing consequences, no matter who is victorious. Countless lives are lost, towns demolished, and what hit America the hardest were the financial issues. In order to fund the war, and to keep the states at ease, wealthy citizens were issued bonds by officials to obtain their precious metals (Financial Crisis). Unfortunately these funds were not limitless, and states then had to use paper money to finance the war. This, however, did not work out for America in the long run.

It also altered many social customs disrupted trade, and made most people fearful of contact with strangers”(Bender 65). This quote tells us that the Plague caused issues with trade. This would make it very hard to find resources they did not have access to. The Plague also caused issues with Europe 's crops. For example, TheMidievalEra states “The plague was not only end of men, but animals and harvest too”(“Death”).

After being hit by inflation due to the Hundred Years’ War, many nobles robbed other people as a way to raise money. This was known as the Fur-Collar

“I no longer believe you can fix the death penalty. It throws millions of dollars down the drain,” (Costs of Death Penalty vs. Life Imprisonment”). The death penalty is throwing millions of dollars down the drain considering that it is not doing anything to help the crime rate. If we continue to waste money on the death penalty imagine how much more money will be “thrown down the drain.” The average cost of death penalty incarceration per year in the United States is about $1 billion. $1 billion dollars is a lot of money to begin with.

Farmers were enticed by high prices persuaded farmers to grow a single “cash” crop. Profits were then used to buy food and manufactured goods. In the 1880s, bankruptcy fell into the nation and caused low prices and a deflated currency. As a result, there was not enough dollars to go around and caused debt. Farmers were forced to by expensive machinery to increased crop production, which were sold at low prices and caused even more debt..In a vicious circle, their farm machinery increased their output of grain, lowered the price, and drove them even deeper into debt.

In Addition to maldistribution stood the credit structure of the economy, some farmers were in deep land mortgage debt, so they lowered their crop prices in order to regain credit, and because the farmers were no longer accountable for what they owed banks. Across the nation the banking system found themselves in constant trouble. In America both small and large bankers were concerned for their survival, so they began investing recklessly in stock markets and granting unwise loans. These unconscious decisions would lead a large consequence, such as families losing their life savings and their deposits became uninsured. “ More than 9,000 American banks either went bankrupt or closed their doors to avoid bankruptcy between 1930 and 1933.”Although

As of recently, there have been reports of an increase in taxes to pay off debts in Massachusetts. A huge number of individuals who couldn 't pay these taxes are farmers, and they ended up finding themselves going to court, then to prison. This issue had led to the start of the Shay 's Rebellion, which was a fight for change between the farmers and the legislatures. I believe that the farmers were making the right decision to oppose the government because of the unfair laws that were placed. The farmers had experienced so much, and taxes had affected them profoundly to the point where they wanted to overthrow the government in control.

The effect of agricultural runoff in the Chesapeake Bay watershed It is almost impossible to turn on the news without hearing about the turmoil of pollution, and how it is negatively affecting life worldwide. But have you stopped to think about how pollution is directly affecting your daily lives? Water is the heartbeat of all life, and without it nothing could thrive. Odds are, if you live within the northern mid-atlantic you get some or all of your water from the Chesapeake Bay, or one of its watersheds. Years of agricultural runoff from large industrial farms has lead to contamination of the Bay, endangering not only the lives of the wildlife, but also our own.
