A marketplace where buyers and sellers together trade equity shares in public companies is called stock market.

What is Fair Labor Standards Act?

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a United States statute that aims to protect workers from discriminatory wage practices.

what is the 14th amendment ​

Answers

Answer:

The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1868, granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States—including former slaves—and guaranteed all citizens “equal protection of the laws.”

Explanation:

The Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution was adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments. Arguably one of the most consequential amendments to this day, the amendment addresses citizenship rights and equal protection under the law and was proposed in response to issues related to former slaves following the American Civil War. The amendment was bitterly contested, particularly by the states of the defeated Confederacy, which were forced to ratify it in order to regain representation in Congress. The amendment, particularly its first section, is one of the most litigated parts of the Constitution, forming the basis for landmark decisions such as Brown v. Board of Education (1954) regarding racial segregation, Roe v. Wade (1973) regarding abortion, Bush v. Gore (2000) regarding the 2000 presidential election, and Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) regarding same-sex marriage. The amendment limits the actions of all state and local officials, and also those acting on behalf of such officials.

Answer:

The   Equal Protection Clause  in the   Fourteenth Amendment

protects prison and jail inmates from unfair treatment at the hands of prison authorities based on color, gender, or race.

What did the author mean by this statement?

Answers

This means that while we all have the opportunity to succeed, this does not mean our success will be equal. We all have the opportunity to be successful, but some people will have an easier time or a harder time based off of the conditions around them.
