If you could have asked president Hoover about the plight of bank failure victims, what would you ask?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Mr. President, considering the fact that the welfare of the citizens is the government's primary responsibility and a huge financial breakdown such as the one the citizens have just experienced can have a devastating effect on the economy and impact negatively on your leadership, don't you think the poor affected citizens deserve some intervention from the government?

Explanation:

From the excerpt, it is clear that the financial crash in the United States Stock market was caused by the greed of investors. However, there were still some hardworking citizens who merely saved their hard-earned monies in the banks, but lost them when the banks closed up. Definitely, they deserved some help from the government.

President Hoover's belief that it was not the function of the government to regulate businesses was flawed as it would be wrong for the government to simply sit by and watch the economy crash.

Compare and Contrast How were slash-and-burn agriculture and
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

slash-and-burn agriculture and chinampas

Explanation:

The Aztec lived in wet areas. For farming, they used the chinampas to grow crops like corn, beans and squash. Chinampas were man-made islands, raised land on the surface of lake shallow waters. Chinampas were made of soil and rotten vegetation and dirt from nearby areas which allowed the crops to grow fast.

The Maya used the Slash and Burn method to farm. They would cut down all the trees and burned the stumps to clear the land for farming. The burning of vegetation provided fertile soil from the ashes. The Maya grew the same crops as the Aztec.

Both the Empire use different methods of farming to crow crops. They both rely on farming for crops. They both grow the same crops like corn, beans and Squash which also known as the three sisters as planted together.
