Answer:

I believe it’s D

Explanation:

The stock market crash followed a speculative boom that had taken hold in the late 1920s. During the later half of the 1920s, steel production, building construction, retail turnover, automobiles registered, even railway receipts advanced from record to record. The combined net profits of 536 manufacturing and trading companies showed an increase, in fact for the first six months of 1929, of 36.6% over 1928, itself a record half-year. Iron and steel led the way with doubled gains. Such figures set up a crescendo of stock-exchange speculation which had led hundreds of thousands of Americans to invest heavily in the stock market. A significant number of them were borrowing money to buy more stocks. There was an initial stock market crash that triggered a "panic sell-off" of assets. This was followed by a deflation in asset and commodity prices, dramatic drops in demand and credit, and disruption of trade, ultimately resulting in widespread unemployment (over 13 million people were unemployed by 1932) and impoverishment.

dimaraw [331]

Fair Deal

Truman's social program extending the ideas of the New Deal was referred to as the Fair Deal.

The Fair Deal included laws to expand and support Social Security, raise wages, and prevent racial discrimination in the workplace. However, the economy was a concern after World War II and Congress was unwilling to pass Fair Deal laws during his first term. After winning a second term, Congress agreed to parts of the deal but not the whole program.

Answer:

Explanation:

Ross Perot was a real thorn in the side of the Republicans. He split off a number of votes who would have otherwise gone Republican. He was way ahead of his time where no one thought seriously about balancing the budget. He was also ahead of his time for Campaign reform. Last year, the election costs in the United States amounted to 14 billion. Can you even begin to imagine such a thing?  Who even remembers Ross Perot?

Answer: Platform for campaign reform and a balanced budget.

Ralph Nader: Here's another man that was ahead of his time. I fail to see why Americans are glued to the two party system. I cannot think of anything that has contributed more to the downfall of the American political system than the 2 party system. In Canada, where I live, there are 5 parties in our parliament. Five. Look it up. Are we afraid of so many diverse opinions? No! We even have one party (Parti Quebecois) whose main platform is the break Quebec away from the rest of Canada.  Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. America could learn much from Canada.

Platform: consumer protection and a clean environment.
