How was Jefferson criticized for the louisana purchase?
i know that he went against the constitution but how did Jefferson’s Anti-federalist views make him a hypocrite after this purchase?

jefferson was a strict constructionist, and he believed that the president and the gov’t couldn’t do anything that wasn’t specifically enumerated in the constitution, and the power to purchase land was not a power given to the federal government and especially the president, so he loosly interpeted the power to make treaties to encompase the ability to purchase land

My cousin is having a party bus this weekend, and i want to know what to expect because i have never been on one. Anything?

You just drive around and listen to music. If you are of age you drink and go to place to place or party to party. Nothing big.

You should start collecting price lists from local companies that would be your competitors before you could answer that question.

Also – search the web for different rates and business models. Rather than a straightforward $3 a shirt approach you may find other pricIng models that serve you better – including those with loyalty cards and/or offering complementary services such as shoe shine, etc.

Ideally too you would service the needs of customer not getting their needs met today. Ex. – if everyone is charging high, then charge low. If everyone is concentrating on dry cleaning, do laundry. If other companies are not delivering, perhaps you could.

Each of these would impact your pricing model.

Good luck with your venture.

Hello,the first two answers have nothing to do with the question,did these two people even read the question.I am looking for info on inheritance taxes in the state of Louisiana USA.mIKE

Anywhere between 0 and 80%, depending on what’s inherited, and the relationship of the inheriting person to the decedent.

Yes you can buy shrimp with food stamps.

Im not going to live there,but im just go there over the summer.Also,my hair is at my collar bone and is in good condition.

The average persons hair grows about a half an inch a month. So an inch a half? If your curious enough, get a shirt you dont wear and mark where it ends once every month on the same day. Thats what im doing. And its about half an inch per month.

Why isn’t cajun french spoken any more?

I don’t think it has! We have friends that live in Vinton and they all (even the younger ones) still speak ‘Cajun French’.

I am looking for owners who may have had the same last name as my grandparents.

I looked on the 1860 slave schedules, which lists the slave owner’s name, the slaves age, sex and race. There are 134 entries for owners named Bell in Louisiana, 760 in Mississippi. Since some of them own more than one slave, there are fewer than 894 owners, but still fat too many to list here.
