HELP!!! 23 POINTS!!! HURRY!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO FIRST ANSWER!!! The Declaration of Independence states that "all men are created equal." Does the United States live up to this ideal today?
Yes, The United States does live up to this ideal today. What Jefferson was trying to state was that the American Colonists had the same right of fundamental government. This means, if the government does not protect these people, they have the right to change their government. So technically Thomas Jefferson believes all people are entitled to equal treatment under the law.
Answer:
No, the United States does not live up this ideal. All men are still not equal, because people of color still do not have complete equality, and still face prejudice and racism in their work, school, and daily lives. The statement that "all men are created equal" also excludes women, as women also face prejudice, an example of this could be the wage gap between men and women. This statement also does not account for people who are part of the LGBTQ+ community, as they also still face predjudice because of their gender oriengation or sexuality.

THE MATCH
There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.
Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.
In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.

How did the Increased British military and abuse of colonial rights cause the American Revolution?
Answer:Though Great Britain had one of the greatest navies in the world at the beginning of the American Revolution, it did not have a large standing army. The British Parliament had historically opposed such an army during periods of peace. While the high cost of maintaining a large standing army was one factor behind this policy, Parliament also feared how a monarch might use this army to abuse the constitutional rights of the British people.
In addition, available British forces were spread thinly across the globe protecting the empire. Not only was the government required to maintain sufficient forces in the home islands to protect Great Britain from invasion by another European power, the government was required to maintain troops in many parts of its empire including such strategic locations as Gibraltar and the Island of Minorca. Great Britain was also forced to maintain large numbers of forces in the Caribbean to protect its rich sugar islands.

Because of the small number of British forces in North America at the beginning of the American Revolution, the British Army could not suppress the rebellion without major reinforcements. Recruiting a large number of troops and moving those forces to the American colonies before the new Continental Army became trained and ready to fight was important.
One of the quickest and easiest ways for King George III to increase the size of the British forces was to simply acquire troops from other European rulers. Before the rise of large national standing armies in the l8th century, it was common for rulers to simply lease or rent an army if a ready-made army was needed. Though George III sought troops from a number of European rulers, it was from the princes of small German kingdoms that he found the troops to augment British forces. In addition to being the King of Great Britain, George III was also the Elector of Hanover, a small German state. With his German title and strong German roots, he enjoyed special connections with other German princes allowing him to hire their soldiers. Hiring out soldiers was a good way for impoverished German princes to supplement their incomes. The decision by the British government to pursue the employment of foreign mercenaries against people who had long considered themselves loyal British subjects caused King George III to lose a great deal of support in the American colonies. The decision to hire foreign troops would be one of the causes specifically referenced in the Declaration of Independence as a factor which contributed to the final break

CHAPTER II—THE SHE-WOLF, an excerpt
From White Fang
By Jack London
Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.
As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics.
At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said:
"I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone."
"They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.
They spoke no more until camp was made.
