Which of these is least likely to be deemed a deterrent to committing crimes? a. the death penalty b. community service c."three strikes" laws d. mandatory sentencing

Well to first off point out, it doesn't matter the penalty of sentence that would make it so deterrent to a person. What matters would be the person behind the crime and their sense of how fair they think a penalty really is in their mind. So in all honesty there isn't really a specific answer to this, but in my opinion I'd just choose:

A. the death penalty

Early 18th century british industries were generally small scale and relatively unsophisticated. most textile production, for example, was centred on small workshops or in the homes of spinners, weavers and dyers: a literal ‘cottage industry’ that involved thousands of individual manufacturers. such small-scale production was also a feature of most other industries, with different regions specialising in different products: metal production in the midlands, for example, and coal mining in the north-east.two illustrations of 18t
