The correct answer is: "lowers".

Lowering the interest rates of the economy is a tool for an expansionary monetary policy. When interest rates are lower, more money is pumped into the economy, because investors take the opportunity to obtain loans at a cheaper price.

When large amounts of money are conducted to investments, there is an increase in overall production figures and therefore there will be economic growht. Morever, employment is enhanced as it becomes necessary in order to meet the larger production levels and as a consequence, demand increases too.

In what area of China did the Japanese exert influence? What other nations did the Japanese control in 1911
Anna [14]
You have the year wrong. Japan didn't control any other nation in 1911. Japan first started occupying Chinese soil around 1931, and a full-fledged war between the countries started in 1937.

Throughout World War II, Japan primary controlled the Northeast part of China, though they occupied many areas all along the Eastern coast in the middle. They set up a "puppet" state in the Northeast called Manchuko.

Japan also invaded and occupied Korea. By 1942, they occupied Thailand, Vietnam, Burma, Malaysia, The Phillipinnes, and dozens of other territories in the South Pacific.

murzikaleks [220]


The Bush administration’s responses to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, expanded presidential power in matters of national security. Bush transformed from being a President with questionable legitimacy, who had been selected in a controversial election, to taking on immense presidential emergency powers, defining the threat, and attacking the enemy. His administration justified its actions by citing Article II of the U.S. Constitution that outlines the powers of the President as commander in chief as well as legal authorizations passed by Congress. Following 9/11, Bush’s leadership became a rallying point for the nation. The American people were inclined to trust him because they believed in his ability to maintain their safety. In the weeks after the attack, Bush’s approval rating rose to 90 percent—the highest recorded job-approval rating in U.S. presidential history.
