a) Upton Sinclair exposed the horrific conditions of the meat industry in America during the early 1900s, which involved rat poison, rotten meat, and dead rats themselves being put into products such as sausage, and ground beef. Older beef was saved for weeks and then bleached to be sold as new. There are also reports by him that men fell into vats of boiling lard, and some of their remains were sold.

He had Congress pass the Meat Inspection Act, requiring that companies be inspected for a series of codes and health violations.

What is the government system in Italy?
Politics in Italy are conducted through a parliamentary, democratic republic which uses three primary branches and a separate Head of state. The three branches are: executive, legislative and judiciary.
The legislative branch consists of elected representatives who take seats in the Parliament. The Parliament has a bicameral system and consists of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
The executive branch consists of the Council of Ministers; led by the Prime Minister (who's official title is President of the Council).
The judicial branch stands alone and is considered autonomous and independent of the other two branches. It's sole responsibility is to the people and the organization and functioning of justice and law. The judicial branch can also reject laws created by the other branches if they are deemed unconstitutional. There are several layers of judiciary courts. The highest circle of the judicial branch is the Constitutional Court which is composed of 15 judges; five are appointed by the President of Italy, five are elected by Parliament and five are elected by the ordinary and the supreme court systems.
The Head of State (more commonly referred to as the President of Italy) is not considered as part of the three branches, but stands alone as the point of connection between all three; but he is directly responsible for appointing the Prime Minister (in the executive branch) and appoints five of the 15 judges on the Constitutional Court circuit. The president holds many of the duties previously held by the King before monarchy was abolished. The president has many over riding powers that can be used to direct the three branches, but is expected to keep their use to a minimum and allow the three branches of government to perform most routine duties, only stepping in on the most extreme of circumstances or as a guiding and uniting force.
