How does the death penalty violate the 8th amendment

It violates the 8th amendment because it is a cruel and unusual punishment. It is cruel to kill someone no matter how horrible the crime. It is showing people that if you do something the same will be done to you, it is an eye for an eye. I disagree with that type of justice completely.

the answer is c sharecroppers were trapped in a cycle of poverty and debt.

explanation:

one of the major disadvantages of sharecropping system is that the sharecroppers or the planters are stucked in an unhealthy cycle of debts. this happens because planters will be allowed to loan merchandise from the land-owner and will soon be paid by the farmer in his share in the farm come harvest time. hope this !
