Answer:

Reagan significantly increased military spending, which went from 267.1 billion dollars in 1980 (4.9% of GDP and 22.7% of public expenditure) to 393.1 billion in 1988 (5.8% of GDP and 27.3% of public spending). These figures were not seen since the end of the American participation in the Vietnam War, in 1973.

The Reagan administration turned the arms race into a technological struggle, where the largest industrial, military and economic capacity of the United States imposed to the Soviet bloc. During the Reagan administration, Trident nuclear submarines (Ohio class) appeared and took advantage of advances in computer science.

The cotton gin sped up the production of cotton by
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Cotton was one the biggest and most important crops in the South of the United States. In 1794, a United States inventor named Eli Whitney produced and patented a machine called the Cotton Gin and by that time, it completely modernized the cotton industry.

This especial machine was able to speed up the production of cotton by a process, which incremented the speed in which the cotton seeds were removed from the cotton fiber. Previous to this machine the removal of the seeds has to be done by hand which was very time consuming.

even though the invention was very successful,  Mr. Whitney´s success was not what he wanted, mainly because there were a lot of patent infringement problems that he has to faced, and ended up in disappointment for him.

Suppose you had lived during the time period of the 1828 election. Would you have voted for Andrew Jackson?
vovikov84 [41]
In short- no. He imposed some very unfair tariffs on the southern states, making it very hard to live, most of what he did were things that lead up to the civil war. But in this case, I suggest you do your research and do the essay, but I can tell you what he did. He inposed unfair tariffs on forgein goods, making them the same (expensive) prices on domestic goods, made in the north. In retaliation, South Carolina seceded, and used military action against them. He also made the federal reserve a thing I think.
