What impact did U.S. policies have on Native Americans? Provide at least one example.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

U.S. policies were hurtful towards Native Americans and destroyed their culture and civilizations. Native groups would be removed and atrocious acts would be committed against them. Many treaties were broken and the government never followed through on their promises to Native Americans. One U.S. policy would be the Federal Indian Policy. During the 1800s, the relationship between American settlers and American Indians began to deteriorate. Although many American Indians pushed to assimilate to American culture, Southerners still felt that their presence was unwelcome. In the 1830s, Congress began to remove native grounds from the Southeast to land across the Mississippi River in forced marches, which would later become known as the Trail of Tears.

Which of the following factors has helped improve Bangladesh’s economy in recent years? A. new tariffs B. microlending C. shifti

Harrizon [31]

The correct answer is B. In Bangladesh, microfinance institutions (MFIs) have had sustained benefits over two decades in reducing poverty and increasing incomes. Microcredit accounted for a 10 percent reduction in rural poverty in Bangladesh over that time—meaning MFIs lifted some 2.5 million Bangladeshis from the ranks of the poor.

When Bangladesh’s microfinance sector was first established in the 1970s, its main goal was reducing rural poverty by providing microcredit loans for non-crop activities such as trading, and raising livestock and poultry. These loans were funded mainly by the government of Bangladesh and bilateral donors through group-based savings and lending programs.

Today, Bangladesh’s MFIs cover some 32 million members and give out more than $7.2 billion annually. Instead of relying on the savings of borrowers, MFIs now have access to institutional funds, including commercial banks. Modern microfinance in Bangladesh has expanded its scope from home-based activities and self-employment to include savings and insurance, microenterprises, and productive employment.

Microcredit also helped to diversify borrowers’ economic activities, boosting incomes in the process. Household income grew over the study period, driven by rising non-farm income. For households diversifying into non-farm activities, income growth was almost 29 percent higher than that of their counterparts who stuck exclusively to farming. The reduction in moderate and extreme poverty for this group was almost 8 percent higher. Better access to credit was found to be a key factor in promoting this shift.

But MFIs, despite their traditional focus on non-farm activities, have also aided farmers. Borrowing from an MFI raised farm income and reduced reliance on wage income, producing significant positive effects for women and marginal farmers. A 10 percent increase in women’s credit use was found to increase crop income by 3.5 percent, non-crop income by 2.8 percent, and total farm income by 0.7 percent. In addition, borrowing by both men and women has had important impacts on income, labor supply, household assets and net worth, and children’s schooling.
