Enduring Vision is packed with information, so you need
to realize every sentence, if not highlighted, needs to be
understood, so….
Do:
Read slowly, carefully and evaluate what is
important to remember
Only highlight key words, not entire sentences or
paragraphs
Write notes to yourself and put in question marks
on information you need me to explain
Do Not:
Wait to the last minute
Skim
Fake highlighting by randomly highlighting or doing
first and last sentence

A team of rivals
Why not make a country instead?
Each state saw itself as independent, with its own assembly, laws, and customs
To make a country, the individual will have to give some of its independence
How much authority do we actually give to the new National Government
National Government can make treaties and negotiate with foreign powers
The National Government can raise an army for protection (Daddy’s with Deer Rifles)….why do the states refuse to allow a standing army?
Paying for the army……the NG has to “ask” the states to fund it.

He is the chief law enforcement officer and commands the army
The major argument is over the law making branch…..Legislative…..
Who gets the power to make the law
Virginia Plan…..representation should be based on the number of people in the state (more, more money is paid to support government
New Jersey Plan……every state has equal representatives…..favors small states

Great Compromise

3/5th compromise
Electoral College……

Ch. 18-20 Economics 2nd Industrial revolution drives America
Five things that a modern, factory Industrial society requires
Natural resources: the materials necessary to produce marketable items for sale and export: Oil and Coal, iron, copper, lumber (US has massive amounts of all of these within our borders)
Technology to produce and transport the marketable items: The standardization, the factory process, bessmer process, inventions coming at an astronomical rate: Edison, Carneige, Rockerfeller, Ford….new inventions, ways of organizing the process and new business practices to insure the market
Capital: cash money used for investment, venture capital-money that can be used to develop a business that does not require an immediate return….the more capital you have, the more variety and competition will occur (laissez-faire capitalism-no government control means that competition will provide the best products at the lowest price….”hands off)
Markets: groups of people who are willing to spend their money to buy your product. What the US discovers is that there is a tremendous market of domestic consumers…then we find that the world wants to buy our stuff, so we develop our first sophisticated international markets)
A source of unending cheap labor: This is the one cost that we can really control….the cheaper the labor, the less expensive I can sell my product for…I sell more than my competitor, he goes out of business, then I buy him.
