Why did eisenhower favor a buildup of nuclear over conventional

History
1 answer:
Rashid [163]4 years ago
7 0
In moving from military general in the field to commander in chief in the White House, Dwight Eisenhower's approach to war changed.  As a five-star general in the US army, serving as Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Forces in Europe during World War II, his role had been to win battles on the ground.  But as President of the United States during the Cold War, his goal was to prevent war from coming.  He was most interested in deterring the other side from wanting to begin a war.  He also faced reductions in resources allocated for national defense in the post-war days.  So the most cost-efficient way to build up a strong deterrent to war was to build up America's nuclear arsenal.  Keeping war from happening was preferred to fighting another horribly bloody war with conventional weapons.

What was the Haitian Revolution and how did it affect the United States?
Vlad [161]

Answer:

The Haitian revolution came to North American shores in the form of a refugee crisis. In 1793, competing factions battled for control of the then-capital of St. Domingue, Cap-Français (now Cap-Haïtien.) The fighting and ensuing fire destroyed much of the capital, and refugees piled into ships anchored in the harbor. The Haitian Revolution and the subsequent emancipation of Haiti as an independent state provoked mixed reactions in the United States. This led to uneasiness in the US, instilling fears of racial instability on its own soil and possible problems with foreign relations and trade between the two countries.

Why do some liberal think the ACA (affordable care act )did not go far enough ?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

There is a claim by some Liberals that the ACA Law does not go far enough in securing the Americans, and reducing health care costs. The law, they say, has brought a lot of good things, but if we take into account the fact that 5300 members of Congress have registered 3300 lobbyists for health care, and more spent on preparing the law itself, than for some campaigns for presidential elections. Therefore, not a small part of this law appears to have been written by foreign private insurance industry or pharmaceutical industry.

For example, many health insurers, patients were bankrupt due to the high cost of health care, under the auspices of the ACA.
