Answer:

The correct answer is Constitutional Provision.

Explanation:

FDR decided to expand the Supreme Court in 1937 in order to make it more efficient. Of course, critics came up saying that in this way the Supreme Court wouldn’t be against his New Deal, as it was before because them had unvalidated various important pieces of New Deal legislation justifying that the laws gave an unconstitutional amount of authority to the federal government. FDR proposed that every judge over 70 should retire and if they refused, an “subordinate” with complete voting rights was to be selected, in order to make sure that Roosevelt had a liberal majority. This was called by the opposites the “court-packing” plan.

Woodrow Wilson's distrust of corporate banking led him to:
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Creation of Federal Reserve System

Explanation:

An important innovation initiated by Wilson was a complete reorganization of the financial and banking system and monetary circulation. Today, it is difficult for Americans to imagine what kind of financial turmoil reigned in their country from the time of the Civil War until the beginning of the 20th century. At that time, about seven thousand banks were functioning. Gold and silver coins, certificates, notes of the National Bank were in circulation, and all the monetary circulation was under the full control of Wall Street.

To harmonize the financial system with the needs of the economy, Wilson was pushing for a law to create the Federal Reserve System (Fed), which serves as the central bank of the United States. The President adhered to the “golden mean.” He listened to the advice of conservatives and, for the sake of the effective functioning of the financial system, agreed to create 12 regional federal banks. However, the stumbling block was the principle of forming the Fed's board, which, according to the personal plan of Wilson and his progressive advisers, was supposed to regulate its activities. The president had to withstand the extraordinary pressure of banking tycoons accusing him of trying to strip them of control of their property. But he did not make any concessions, considering the appointment of the composition of the board of the Federal Reserve System solely the competence of the president. Therefore, in the management of the Fed, although its ownership is private, the state plays a significant role.

Why was the iron curtain a problem
Brrunno [24]

The Iron Curtain represented the constant conflict and physical division between the Democrats and the Communists. This term was used to describe the conflict that existed from the end of World War II (1945) until the end of the Cold War in 1991. It is important to understand that the Iron Curtain was a concept used to describe the ideological division of Europe and did not physically exist. Although the Berlin wall was a very significant representation of the Iron Curtain, no one border or wall was the Iron Curtain.
