Answer: CARPETBAGGERS

Explanation:

During the postwar period in the South, the positions in the government were almost exclusively divided between white Northern Republicans, those men were labeled by their opposition as "Carpetbaggers". In essence, they were northerners who supposedly hurried to the Southern states with all their carpetbags to seize the political spoils and improve their economic and political situation. Numerous other carpetbaggers were educators, social workers, or missionaries motivated by a sincere missionary impulse.

The term “carpetbaggers” refers to Northerners who moved to the South after the Civil War, during Reconstruction. Many carpetbaggers were said to have moved South for their own financial and political gains.

Que opinas del rescate bancario
hoa [83]

Answer:

El rescate bancario es un asunto complejo que tiene algunos aspectos positivos, pero otros negativos.

Explanation:

El aspecto positivo es que rescatar los bancos de acuerdo a muchos economistas, evita que las crisis financieras sean aun peores, y que la economía demore más en su recuperación. Esto debido a lo importante, omnipresente, e interconectado que se encuentra el sector financiero con el resto de la economía. En otras palabras, si el sector financiero colapsa, es muy probable que el resto de la economía también lo haga. En conclusión, el rescate bancario puede ser visto como una forma de evitar el mal mayor.

No obstante, el aspecto negativo es que el rescate bancario es hecho con dinero de impuestos, es decir, que todos los ciudadanos del país pagan el rescate, hayan tenido que ver o no con lo que desencadenó la crisis, y este sentido, el rescate bancario no deja de ser una política injusta en cuanto castiga a toda la población por culpa de los excesos de unos pocos.
