What will happen without the bill of rights and what would be the impact to the people?​

Answers

Answer:

The bill of rights contains our basic human rights. Without them we won't be allowed to protect ourselves and we won't be allowed to speak freely. We could be jailed for anything because without due process of law(which guarantees that we must be tried by a jury of our peers) we won't be allowed a fair trial. We won't be allowed to practice any religion we please. The goovernment will be allowed to take what they want from anyone they want. The government will become tyrannical.

The impact this shows is that people will fear their government more than anything. Prisons would fill so fast that they'd have to build more. The crime rate will rise. More people would live in poverty. Thsi country could not survive without the bill of rights.

what was unique about Wilmington &weldon railroad & the North Carolina when they were new? i’ll mark brainlist if i can!!

Answers

Answer:

The Wilmington & Weldon Railroad (W&W) was the new name adopted in February 1855 by the Wilmington & Raleigh Railroad (completed in 1840), which ran from Wilmington to Weldon by way of Goldsboro and Rocky Mount, bypassing Raleigh. As a central rail link along the Atlantic Coast, it carried heavy traffic during the Civil War and made a considerable profit (in Confederate currency) for its owners. Because the W&W had its own facilities for rerolling iron rails and did not lie in the path of military action until the very end of the war, it suffered somewhat less than many other roads of the region and entered the Reconstruction period dilapidated but intact.

For 20 years after the war, Robert R. Bridgers of Edgecombe County served as president of the W&W. With backers including the Walters family of Baltimore, he developed interlocking directorates, leases, and traffic agreements (using the W&W as a base) that led to the formation of the Atlantic Coast Line Company and the eventual merger with the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad (ACL). In November 1872 the W&W had been leased to its southern connection, the Wilmington, Columbia, and Augusta, but the lease lapsed when the latter road failed to pay the W&W dividend in 1877. Bridgers and his associates acquired control of the Wilmington, Columbia, and Augusta in October 1879, and in June 1885 they leased it to the W&W for 99 years.

Which of the following reform measures could voters use against a mayor they oppose?
a recall
an impeachment
a referendum
an initiative

Answers

Answer: It is A.a recall

A recall is the reform measure that voters can use against a mayor they oppose. This is the process by which voters can dismiss an elected officer through a referendum before the term of office ends.

Why was recall designed?

The practice of recalling civil servants was an attempt to minimize the influence of political parties on representatives. Widely used in the United States, this recall was initially aimed at ensuring that elected civilians act in the interests of the constituency, rather than in the interests of political parties and their conscience. The actual dismissal is usually a resignation signed by a representative elected prior to taking office. During the term of office, if the representatives' performance does not meet their expectations, the letter may be challenged by the quorum of voters.

The correct answer is option A.
