HERE'S WHAT I COULD COME UP WITH

The families of Middle Class Americans had enjoyed the prosperity, ostentation and conspicuous consumption of the Roaring Twenties that fostered a belief that they were better than others. The wages of the middle class were more than double those of the poor. Hard times hit many Middle class families as debts accumulated through 'Margin Loans' had to be repaid immediately. Loans on 'easy credit', for various consumer goods such as automobiles or refrigerators, still had to be repaid. Numerous small banks collapsed and people lost their life savings. Family  homes in comfortable 6-8 roomed houses had to be sold to cover debts and back taxes. Those that managed to keep their houses could no longer afford electricity. And servants had to be dismissed adding to the rising unemployment figures.

Why should developing countries prioritize environmental protection?
inysia [295]
Well they should and shouldn't

.im saying this because if they only prioritize on doing environmental things then that new country will fail almost immediately.due to not having a stable government which will intern cause it to be like an every man for them self's type of situation.
 
But on the other hand if they dont only go after there government issues then there natural resources will run out causing starvation,low birth and death rate,etc. intern causing in a short amount of time it to become like a third world country and be barely scrapping bye.

hope this was what your question is looking for and its helps u in multiple ways! .^_^.
