Filburn in 1942. This was a landmark case because it was based upon an American citizen who was producing a crop (wheat) for his own consumption for animals on his farm. Based on the New Deal, issued by President Franklin D Roosevelt, the Agricultural Act of 1938 was produced. This act provided increased Federal control on crop production as well as other things to stabilize the farming industry and crop prices. There were quotas set for crop production to stabilize crop prices, as a result of the legislation of the Agricultural Act.

“The Missouri Compromise succeeded in minimising divisions between the north and south in the years 1820 to 1850. Do you agree?” (30) In 1819 Missouri applied to join the union causing great aggression and hostility by the Northern congressmen. Seeing as by 1819 the original 13 states had incredibly grown to 22, with 11 being equally slave and 11 being slave free, the admission of Missouri would tilt the balance. The Free states opposed Missouri’s admittance causing a period of uproar and furious debates, with Southern and Northern congressmen both being lined up against each other. However, Senator Henry Clay set out proposals which eased tensions by 1820; being able to balance the tilt between none-slave and slave states.

Where was the due process? Due process is the idea that laws and legal proceedings must be fair. The Constitution guarantees that the government cannot take away a person's basic rights to 'life, liberty or property, without due process of law.'
Cassie Higgins PAS 325 Merit System Standards: Hiring the Unqualified 23 January 2012 Introduction: Congressman Wally Herger wrote a letter to the House of Representatives commenting on USDA Civil Rights Programs. In his letter Herger clearly states his strong support of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and mentions the regrettable fact that the United States Department of Agriculture civil rights programs put in place to support this act in fact do quite the opposite. Herger stresses that the USDA civil rights programs’ obsession on race and gender creates an unfair environment in hiring and promoting workers. He goes on to urge that we return to the ideals of hiring and promoting workers based on their expertise and knowledge and not on the color of their skin or their sex (Reeves, 2006, pp. 41-42).
The Framers of the Constitution wanted America to be free and they wanted a government that was ran by the people and for the people. The years leading up to the American Revolution the colonist saw the king and Parliament of England put their hands in colonial business, specifically when it came to dealing with taxes. All of the states wanted to ensure that the same thing did not happen with the new government. Hence the 10th Amendment was written into the Bill of Rights. President Adams passed the Aliens and Sedition Act in 1798, shortly thereafter Kentucky passed a resolution that declared, “This commonwealth does upon the most deliberate reconsideration declare, that the said alien and sedition laws, are in their opinion, palpable violations of the said constitution; and however cheerfully it may be disposed to surrender its opinion to a majority of its sister states in matters of ordinary or doubtful policy; yet, in momentous regulations like the present, which so vitally wound the best rights of the citizen, it would consider a silent acquiescence as highly criminal: That although this commonwealth as a party to the federal compact; will bow to the laws of the Union, yet it does at the same time declare, that it will not now, nor ever hereafter, cease to oppose in a constitutional manner, every
There were many differences between the two and each difference created more and more tension until they reached the breaking point of war. An example of one would be the way that their economies’ were set up. The North’s economy was industrial centered while the South’s almost exclusively revolved on agriculture. The way that their economies’ were affected the way that their political parties acted. So the North’s industrial political party (Republicans) would support laws like high tariffs on cotton while on the other hand the South’s agricultural political party (democrats) would vote against.
“The earliest use of the term "intellectual property" appears to be an October 1845 Massachusetts Circuit Court ruling in the patent case Davoll et al. v. Brown. In which Justice Charles L. Woodbury wrote that "only in this way can we protect intellectual property, the labors of the mind, productions and interests as much a man's own...as the wheat he cultivates, or the flocks he rears." Some would even say that it can be traced back even further beginning with Jewish laws which prohibited plagiarism also called “g’neivat d’at” stealing of the mind” Materials that are protected Businesses need to know what types of materials are considered protected, and the laws that protect them. The first type of works of authorship that can be protected is musical works such as songs, advertising jingles, and instrumentals.
