Answer:

Quackery is the promotion of fraudulent or ignorant medical practices. A quack is a "fraudulent or ignorant phony person who claims to possess medical knowledge" or "a person who pretends, professionally or publicly, to have skills, knowledge or qualifications that he does not possess; a charlatan ».

The word quack derives from the archaic word of Dutch origin quacksalver (written "kwakzalver" in contemporary Dutch), literally "peddler of pomade." In the Middle Ages the word quack meant "to shout". The quacksalvers sold their merchandise in the market, loudly proclaiming it.

"Health fraud" is often used as a synonym for quackery, but the most notable feature of the latter is its more aggressive promotion (quacks quack !, "quacks do quack!"). Pseudomedicine is a term for ineffective treatments demonstrated, regardless of whether its advocates really believe in its effectiveness.

Well during the early 1900´s the United States were undergoing The Great Depression which was a hard time for america but with the technological innovations and the business environment starting to flourish it more than likely helped America come out of that time period and become one of the most productive countries that we are today. The strengths of the innovations today are that thery´re really changing and shaping the future of tomorrow and the future of the young people coming up, but the weakness would be that we become in debt with other countries because of the demand for these innovations.
