Sorry And here's your smoke du jour brought to you

00:05

by punting the best way to get rid of a

00:07

problem I'll give this excerpt a read no state shall

00:12

be agent booth All right And now the question in

00:22

the articles of confederation the issue of slavery was what

00:27

and hear your complaint settled not settled are our biggest

00:33

clue Here is the date that the articles of confederation

00:36

was written so remember that year cell fourteen eighty one

00:40

as we check out these answers to the articles of

00:42

confederation a settle the issue of slavery by allowing the

00:46

practice but prohibiting the importation of new slaves when i'll

00:50

let see international slave training wasn't banned until eighteen o

00:54

eight that's almost thirty years later is that eliminates a

00:57

on what about b They settled slavery by establishing that

01:00

all new states would be free states Well does the

01:03

missouri compromise ring about it should because that eighteen twenty

01:07

act attempted to resolve the issue of whether or not

01:09

new states would allow slavery and even that didn't fix

01:12

things In fact it took another forty five years for

01:16

the government to settle things once and for all it

01:18

was bloody when they did so it's not be either

01:21

So then maybe the issue of slavery was c not

01:24

settled by the articles but was later settled by the

01:27

ratification of the constitution Well that sure would have saved

01:30

everyone a lot of trouble down the road But the

01:32

constitution also failed to clarify the government's position on slavery

01:36

that knocks out see as well which means that slavery

01:39

was d not settled in the articles and continued to

01:43

be an issue in later years And did it ever

01:46

Slavery was the giant elephant in the room in the

01:48

early days of the country Nobody wanted to talk about

01:51

it because it always ended in a big disagreement So

01:54

rather than talk about the problem they just ignored it

01:57

So the correct answer is d and we all know

01:59

that when you ignore your problems well they just go

02:02

away right Um
