Answer 1: The hellenistic philosophers tried to actually answer numerous questions related to various ideas of what it means to lead a good life and how to access the meaning of life and find the truth. They dealt with ethics, politics, ontology, logic, rhetoric, and numerous other disciplines in order to find ways on leading a good life.
Answer 2: The main views was that people need to lead a life full of virtue and in coordination with nature. They were about leading a simple life free from all possessions, both physical/material, and abstract/or spiritual. They refused any wealth or fame that they got and even abstained from sexual intercourse.
Answer 3: Epicurus wanted to find a way to lead a simple, happy and tranquil life. He believed that in order to achieve this you need to find your peace and live a self-sufficient life that is devoid of pain and misery. He tried to teach anyone that pain mostly comes from the irrational fear of death and tried to preach on how we should stop fearing death.
Answer 4: The stoics believed that for a person to lead a good life it is necessary for them to accept the moment as it is and not allow things like fear and pain to overwhelm them. They also believed that we should treat others fairly and justly and that destructive behavior is out of errors of judgement which should not exist.
Answer 5: Skeptics believed that we should not accept things as they are presented to us or told to us but rather that we should question everything since there is usually enough justification even for all opposite things that are told to us. Their key was undermining dogmatic belief and encouraging people to think for themselves.<span />

<span>The NVA would have penetrated into Laos anyway, and spread the war with them; probably knowing full well that the United States would do the same. The NVA didn't care; for them it was do or die. Captured NVA pith helmets were found with their own graffiti written on them; "Born in the North, died in the South." There was no way the North could have survived continuing the war by travelling through the sea, along the coastline; the USN would have sunk every craft that tried. There was no way the North would have tried to cross the DMZ...that was a channelized kill zone; they knew it, we knew it. That left Laos...and that couldn't be channeled & Laos couldn't be sunk. The NVA could get lost in that country, and nobody could find them; they knew it, so did we. So, Laos was the place. (: good luck and hope i helped </span>
<span>Racism
was rampant among the African American workers in the railroad industry. Although they
were well-trained and well-educated, they were only given blue-collar jobs such
as porters. During the Great Depression, unionized white workers and the
railroad brotherhoods in southern railroads used violence to intimidate, and
even murdered the blacks just to take their jobs from them. Despite the
continuous suffering and discrimination, Roosevelt’s ‘New Deal program’ was
only of little help to African American people. This urged the blacks to participate
more in social movements and exert more efforts to progress their contribution
in the New Deal coalition facilitated by the Congress of Industrial
Organization (CIO) in 1935.</span>
