The eighteenth amendment outlawing alcohol impacted the alcohol consumption of the general public. Decrease in alcohol consumption happened in low income families. However, illegal production and distribution of alcohol gave rise to organized crime and because of this consumption also began to rise. 

The most identifiable person who benefited in this amendment by defying it was Al Capone. He earned millions from the sale of illegal booze and in turn ventured out to other illegal businesses like prostitution, drugs, and gambling.

Which accomplishment helped make Herbert Hoover popular at the beginning of his presidency?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The correct response is Option A: Hoover expanded tax cuts among all income classes.

Explanation:

The Hoover-Mellon tax cut in 1929 was supposed to help ease economic problems by giving cuts in corporate taxes to businesses and individual citizens, although deeper economic problems were beginning to become evident. It was an experiment in confidence-building. Initially, it was a popular idea with tax-cut supporters mounting a rally at the Capitol that included film and radio stars like actress Mae Murray. There were petitions circulating in favor of the cuts.  This effort to appease the public shows the dilemma facing incumbent presidents because they have to please the public and deliver on campaign promises.
