Just like the <span>Tramecksans and the Slamecksans are fighting over wearing high vs. low heels, Lilliput and Blefuscu are fighting over the right way of breaking eggs. Furthermore, it's an old conflict, which started when the Emperor's great-grandfather was alive. Swift makes these things causes of conflicts because he wants the reader to infer that politics is far too often brought down to petty trinkets which are not even worth considering. Even more, wars are being fought in the name of such conflicts. Of course, there is more to it than meets the eye: wars are the way to acquire material goods. But the common people still believe this nonsense, letting themselves be fooled.</span>

Compare the ideals of the 1920's with today. Give at least three examples of similarities (compare) and differences (contrast).
prisoha [69]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Compare the ideals of the 1920s with today. Give at least three examples of similarities.

In the 1920s, the United States was living a period known as the "Roaring 1920s." A time when many people were buying a lot of things, necessary or unnecessary. They bought electro domestics, cars, houses. The issue was that most of the purchases were made on credit, accumulating debt. Then after 9 years of "prosperity," the United States stock market crashed on October 29, 1929. Millions of citizens lost their jobs. companies closed, and credit institutions went bankrupt.

Now, at the beginning of a new decade, people are acting "crazy" trying to get the last technology gadget. However, the economy is not living its best moment. On the contrary. The pandemic has caused many economic problems for the low and medium classes. Many people had lost jobs their jobs. The sanitary problems are major in hospitals across the country. US citizens are so divided, like never before.

There is a new President, but he has the major challenge of united the divided nation, to create a better health system, reactivate the economy, and restore the foreign relationships that remained "cold" during the last administration.
