To match each person or movement with the critiqued problems, we have the following arrangements:
Persons / Movements Problems Critiqued
1. Ulysses S. Grant Gold standard
2. Grange Movement Railroad Monopolies
3. Thomas Nast Tweed Ring
4. Populist Party Spoils System
- President Grant used the gold standards in his attempt to curb depression in in 1873. After vetoing an inflation bill, President Grant established hard currency based on the gold standard.
- The Grange Movement (also known as Patrons of Husbandry) helped to educate and awaken the farming community against railroads' monopolies. The movement tremendously brought light to agricultural practices, thereby supporting farming communities.
- Thomas Nast was an American caricaturist and cartoonist, who pioneered American Cartoons. He used his platform to expose the Tweed Ring, a money-laundering, profit-sharing, and fraudulent political organization.
- The spoils system was introduced by President Andrew Jackson in 1829 as a means of rewarding party loyalists with government positions. It promoted political patronage. The Populist Party emerged to challenge the spoils system and big business, and it championed the needs of farmers.
Thus, the correct persons or movements have been matched with the problems that they vigorously critiqued.
