In the 20's the U.S. was trying "to be the world's banker, food producer, and manufacturer, but to buy as little as possible from the world in return." This attempt to have a constant favorable trade balance wouldn't succeed for long. The U.S. maintained high trade barriers to protect American business, but the U.S. wouldn't buy from our European counterparts, so there's no way for them to buy from the Americans, or pay interest on U.S. loans. The weakness of the international economy certainly contributed to the Great Depression. Europe was reliant upon U.S. loans to buy U.S. goods, and the U.S. needed Europe to buy these goods to prosper. By the year 1929, 10% of American gross national product went into exports. When the foreign countries became no longer able to buy U.S. goods, U.S. exports fell 30% overnight. That $1.5 billion of foreign sales lost between 1929 to 1933 was fully one-eighth of all lost American sales in the early years of the depression.

The school of thought that would most likely agree with uncle John is behaviorism.
Behaviorists believed that every type of action and behavior should be observed so as to be researched. If it cannot be directly observed, it doesn't require particular attention because it is not as relevant. Some famous behaviorists are Skinner, Watson, Pavlov, etc.
9-The process of vision begins as lights passes through cornea and lens, the two combined produce a image of the visual stimuli on the retina. The eye resembes a camera, since the image on retina is reversed: The information located in the retina composed of electrical signals travels through the optic nerve to differents paths in the brain, in a tremendous speed we experience sight.
10- Proximity: The principle of proximity states objects that are close to one another appear to form a group. The eye tends to interpret them as a group if they are close.
Similarity- The principle of similarity refers to, all else being equal, the human perception lends itself to seeing stimuli that physically resemble each other as part of the same object. We tend to see a distinction between adjacent and objects that are overlapping based on a given visual texture and resemblance.
Continuity: When there is an intersection between two or more objects, Human mind has a tendency to perceive objects as a single continuos object.
Clousure: This refers to the mind’s tendency to see complete figures or forms even if a picture is incomplete, even when there are some missing lines.
