Answer:
A. Increasing taxes
Explanation:
Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.
There are three (3) types of taxation used by the government, these are;
1. Progressive taxation: it involves charging individuals having higher incomes a higher percentage of their total income.
For instance, John pays 30% on $70,000 and Joyce pays 10% on $45.000.2. Proportional taxation: it involves charging both lower and higher income earners equally in proportion to their income.
For instance, John pays 20% on $50,000 and Joyce pays 20% on $36,000.3. Regressive taxation: it involves charging individuals with low incomes a higher percentage of their total income and vice-versa.
For instance, John pays 15% on $60,000 and Joyce pays 20% on $36,000.A contractionary taxation policy is a policy which typically involves the government reducing (cutting) its spending or increasing taxes in order to reduce deficit. Thus, this policy contracts the economy and as such leading to a reduction in the amount of money available for consumers and businesses to use or spend.
Hence, under a contractionary taxation policy, the government can reduce the deficit by increasing taxes.

Write an essay that analyzes how a text explains the sequence of events that affected the discovery of the Rosetta stone. PLEASE make a NEW ONE, I submitted one from another person asking this and apparently it was taken from a website so someone please make a brand new one!
The Rosetta stone is the code that revealed the mystery of Egyptian hieroglyphics allowing to the archeologist and to the scholars to read and interpreting inscriptions and reliefs like texts and tombs in a modern understanding. Thomas Young has shown first, then the French scholar Jean-François Champollion that provide the foundations of many information on the ancient Egyptian culture. Finally in 1799, soldiers of Napoleon’s army found the Rosetta stone near the town of el-Rashid (Rosetta). Later, the stone became British property after the Treaty of Alexandria (1801) and has been presented in the British Museum since 1802. Further more. The Rosetta Stone is a granodiorite stone inscription discovered in 1799. This inscription has three versions of an edict issued in Memphis, Egypt in 196 BC during the Ptolemaic dynasty in the name of King Ptolemaios V. The proclamation text at the top and middle of the inscription was written in Ancient Egyptian with hieroglyphic and demotic characters, while the lower part is written in Ancient Greek. Because the differences in the three versions of this edict were not many, the Rosetta Stone was the key to the translation of Egyptian hieroglyphics, which in turn broadened insights into ancient Egyptian history.

Explanation:
drag and drop features to match each type of government.
autocracy, democracy.
Laws protect civil rights.
Government tends toward a command economy.
Government generally favors a market economy.
Laws restrict individual freedoms.
Answer: Democraty : Government generally favors a market economy, Laws protect civil rights.
Autocraty : Government tends toward a command economy, Laws restrict individual freedoms.
Explanation:
An autocracy is a form of rule by one man or one group of people. In these forms of government, there is a violation of basic human rights and freedoms, a lack of will of the people, and people's right to vote and be elected. Terms associated with the autocratic rule on the list are the command economy and laws that restrict personal freedoms. The command economy is therefore characteristic of such societies; this type of economy implies all state-owned capital. That implies the exclusion of starting a private business and the possibility of confiscating private property by the state. These elements were in force during Stalinism in the Soviet Union. Restrictions on freedoms are still in force today in certain autocratic regimes such as North Korea, where basic human rights are violated daily.
A market economy is characteristic of democratic societies; it implies a free market and competition. The market economy acts as a market mechanism for the interaction of supply and demand. In democratic systems, the absence of laws that protect citizens is inconceivable. Many elements of this protection are involved in the very constitutions of democratic systems. Laws in this context should be enforced evenly and equally to all citizens.
