Eisenhower created NASA in order to compete with the Soviet Union.

NAS A was created shortly after the Soviet Union successfully launched the satellite Sputnik I into orbit. The success of the Soviet Union's space expeditions caused Americans, especially the federal government, to fear what capabilities the Soviet Union had. To combat this, Eisenhower creates NASA so that the United States can explore space and have as much success as the Soviet Union. This organization would be critical over the next decade, as the work of NASA resulted in the US landing on the Moon in 1969.

How did the roman empire prosper during the reign of the Five good emperors

koban [17]

Depends on Emperor, but mainly was the army. The army conquered many lands such as the land now called England. They even got as fair to Asia, before being pushed back. As well when conquering those lands, they gained Servus or slaves. That could then go to be a Tiro, or Auxilia. With all of that brought power and wealth. As well a lasting image of how terrifying the empire was.

Jages and Supply and Demand

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1. How do we decide how much each person in society should be paid?

The highest paying jobs in society typically have a combination of two factors: 1) they are highly specialized, that is to say, difficult to perform, 2) they have a high demand.

Two examples are: medical specialists, and CEOs.

Why do some jobs receive high wages while others do not? Do wages

reflect what types of jobs our society values?

Jobs that receive higher wages, again, are either more difficult to do, or have a higher demand, or are more scarce.

This does reflect in part what types of jobs our society values, however, not all high paying jobs are well valued, and some low paying jobs enjoy prestige.

2. Using what you know about supply and demand and labor, explain

how changes in supply and demand couple impact employment and jobs

In the current economic crisis, we have seen a reduction in the demand for jobs, because most firms are either selling less, or have simply gone out of business.

This has led to higher unemployment, since many people have been fired and cannot find new places where to be hired.

Norma-Jean [14]

The rainy day is a symbol of life. The idea behind it is that life is like a rainy day because rain represents bad things that happens to you. The poem points out that we shouldn't be miserable because of it because even when there's rain, there's always sunshine behind it so just keep calm and carry on with life and things will get better.
