The main reason why the US government rationed goods and many Americans planted ""victory gardens""during World War 2::

<em>C.The United States wanted to keep American troops fighting in Europe and the Pacific well supplied.</em>

Besides the fact that the U.S. government wanted to keep American troops fighting overseas well-equipped and well-fed, another reason for rationing was the fact that the production of some products had to be reduced since many factories changed their peacetime production of goods marketed in the civilian market for products required by the wartime effort.

For example, silk, a fabric popular before the war in the manufacturing of women's stockings, practically disappeared fro the civilian market since all of its production was earmarked by the military to be used in the manufacturing of parachutes for military pilots, aircrews and paratroopers.

An ancient philosopher once said: "Man is the measure of all things." The statement points to the idea that man is at the center
MAVERICK [17]

This phrase is attributed to Protagoras, a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher. Although the phase is open to interpretation, one of its possible meanings is the fact that humans are at the center of all existence. Moreover, human perception is the standard of objectivity by which everything else is measured. Therefore, this phrase implies that there is no "force" or "being" outside of humans that can provide us with answers to the questions of existence.

This view is closer to that of Greek religion than to that of Hebrew religion, Judaism. Judaism believes in an <em>objetive</em> truth and <em>objective</em> moral rules, contained in the Torah. Moreover, Jews believe that there is one single God, which is omnipotent and all-knowing, and therefore truth emanates from him and not from men.

On the other hand, Greek religion contains many different gods, all of which are imperfect. This suggests that the behaviour or "teachings" of the gods cannot provide us with an objective truth. Humans need to create their own moral codes and their own assumptions about the world in order to establish their societies. Moreover, gods participate very little in human life and when they do they often create chaos or are defeated, suggesting that gods are fallible and cannot control the whole world. These assumptions mean that Greeks believe humans are significantly autonomous and independent from gods, allowing them to believe that they are at the center of all knowledge and experience.

A parliamentary system experiences fewer conflicts between the executive branch and the legislative branch than does a president
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The members of the executive branch are also the member of the parliament.

Explanation:

The members of the executive are also members of the parliament is the main reason why there is less conflict between the executive and the legislative. and they are required to get the political confidence first to execute laws. The relationship of confidence between the executive and the legislative is an important feature of the parliamentary governments and for that confidence, both should have a common policy program. Unlike the presidential system, there is no strict separation of the powers between the executive and the legislative bodies as the members of the legislature is also the member of the executive.
