Hey no one is in Social Studies, and I was wondering if anyone in Mathematics is good at Social Studies?
Those are my questions

13. farming large plots of land requires a lot of help, otherwise the crops will go bad before you're done harvesting. What's the cheapest way in the 1700's to harvest everything? free labor
economically, the northern climate could not sustain the desired crops either so the south is where everything was grown
15. Before the war with Mexico, the North and the South had the issue of slavery more or less under control. The Missouri Compromise had settled which areas would have slavery and which would not. Of course, there was still tension between the two sections over slavery, but they were not at an extremely high point. The war with Mexico changed that, making the tensions much more intense. The reason for this is that the war with Mexico led to the taking of huge amounts of land. The US had to decide what the status of slavery in these new territories would be. This meant that the whole issue had to be debated which, of course, led to tensions as the North and South each tried to get their way. Thus, by forcing Congress to decide on the legality of slavery in huge new areas of land, the Mexican-American War intensified sectional conflict.

16. A republican president was the final straw for South Carolina. They felt if their interests were not going to be represented in government then they'd make their own.
@caominhim do I add "What's the cheapest way in the 1700's to harvest everything? free labor"?
16. The presidential Election of 1860 brought these conflicts to a head with dramatic consequences. The Democratic Party split into three groups along regional lines, each vying for control of the party and each holding different ideas about how to deal with slavery in the West. These three camps lined up against Abraham Lincoln, the nominee of the Republican Party, who advocated that the West be free of slavery entirely. Because Lincoln’s opponents were so deeply divided, he won with less than forty percent of the popular vote (but with fifty-nine percent of the Electoral College) and without taking a single slave state. Although Lincoln’s election was fair, it nonetheless pushed the Deep South toward secession. - See more at: http://www.civilwarinart.org/exhibits/show/causes/introduction/the-election-of-1860-and-seces#sthash.YiX7giXR.dpuf
if you copy my response word for word without actually understanding it then my response didn't actually help you.
and no, never answer a question with a question. That's only for speeches. in a government institution such as public school, do not stray from the beaten path.
I know I'm writing it for notes, but do I put that?
Okay
We have helped you with: 13, 14, 15, and 16
17: should the federal government lay a hand in the affairs of the economy (slavery) then a strong libertarian state such as South Carolina would feel that their rights were being infringed upon and what they agreed to at the constitutional convention of 1786 was violated, therefore nullifying the social contract. Under these circumstances it is in the interest of a free man to leave the oppression of the union.
Ken y'all didn't help me with 14.
*1787
Gice me a sec.. and ill help u with 14
Okay :)
17. South Carolina believed that the federal government had too much power on the states. The northern dominance in the federal government constantly passed laws and made decisions that prevented the Southern states from passing laws that they wanted. or South Carolina believed that the federal government failed to uphold the fundamental rights of the people in the states. They failed to protect their rights to pursuit of hapiness and property as the republican party won the election of 1860. Threatened by the North's laws that would hurt the institution of slavery and possibly emancipate the slaves, Southern states like South Carolina ruled the republican party will become detrimental to the livelihood of the South (slavery is part of their everyday life, everything about the south is about slavery). Thus, South should be allowed to secede as the people are allowed to rebel when the social contract (pursuit of happiness) is violated.
This has the answer to 14. http://tdl.org/txlor-dspace/bitstream/handle/2249.3/201/04_text_mills.htm
14. I don't have a detailed response for this one other than a conglomerate gets it porridge by dipping from each pot.
Can you type it out it won't let me click on the link, Ken
textile mills probably provided clothing for slaves lol
Its pretty long soo yeah...
the south used the climate to their advantage and the textiles were sent north for the factories to make clothes. The clothes were then sent south for the southerners. economic circle
Give me a sec...
caominhim's answer pretty much sums it up xD
Small-town boosters, eager to promote the new mills, boasted that the factories would revolutionize the South. Mill owners viewed workers as the major recipients of their generosity, offering them steady wages and housing. In reality, the wages were so low that women and children were forced into working long hours at even lower wages than men. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- While workers struggled, investors in these same mills often earned profits of 22 percent, and some got away with 75 percent profits. The textile industry, though touted as a saving grace to poor southern farmers, in fact trapped many of them into working in the mills their entire lives. Their children often followed suit, receiving minimal education and earning little. The children sometimes suffered incapacitating injuries, such as severed fingers or limbs and byssinosis or brown lung disease caused by the narrowing of the airways due to the inhalation of cotton fibers. Whereas Henry Grady may have been espousing a New South ethos of industrialization and modernization, the majority of southern workers found themselves caught in web of labor exploitation.
There you go @I_love_my_nieces
