1 Why was the Sixteenth Amendment critical to the expansion of the federal government in the early part of the twentieth century?
A. It allowed women the right to vote
B. It ended Jim Crow laws
C. It limited the ability of states to regulate education
D. It gave the federal government broad taxing powers

Isimply conclude that the eighth . . amendment . . cannot tolerate [giving out] a sentence of death under legal systems that permit this unique penalty to be so wantonly and so freakishly imposed.according to justice smith, the death penalty is a fair penalty that is used justly. is a sentence that can be applied without standards. is not clearly and consistently imposed. is protected by the eighth amendment.
