B. Reducing taxes
Expansionary policies seek to encourage economic growth. Governments pursuing an expansionary policy will cut taxes in order to stimulate investment and production by businesses and economic activity by consumers. The idea is that by putting more money back into the pockets of taxpayers (whether corporations or individuals), they will respond by using the dollars not paid in taxes in ways that will generate greater levels of economic activity in the country.
In December 2017, the US Congress (led by Republicans) passed a major tax cut package, which reduced tax rates on corporations from 35% to 21%, as well as lowering individual income tax rates. It remains to be seen, however, how well the tax cut policy will work to improve overall economic well-being in America. Much of the benefit goes to stockholders and investors, more so than to workers. Market Mogul reported in April, 2018, that while <span>Walmart announced it would spend $700 million on job creation and higher wages, that amount is very small compared to the $4 billion that Walmart plans to use to increase its stock value and benefit its investors, shareholders, and executives. So a major argument continues to be debated, as to which sectors of the economy are helped by an expansionary tax policy.</span>
Both Egyptian and Mesopotamian societies were dependent on agriculture and these operations were supported through vast and developed irrigation systems. However, the main difference in these systems comes from the source of water, where Egyptians had a steady source of water from the Nile and farmed alongside the river according to the flooding patterns, the Mesopotamians were forced to use a system of levees, dams and artificial channels to collect rainwater from mountainous regions and transport to agricultural areas.
The Magyars and the Vikings were two people that had totally different lifestyles, lived in different areas, and also waged war i different manner because of it.
The Magyars were continental people. They lived in open grasslands, thus their main strategy was using the horse as an advantage in battle, be very mobile, and making quick, efficient attacks, while also being able to quickly retreat if needed.
The Vikings were people that lived along the coastline. They were constantly sailing, and their main focus were the good coastal locations. Because of this, the Vikings were attacking through the waters, be it from the sea, or through the rivers, often using the night as cover, making quick, surprise attacks along the coastline and river banks.
