A. The Urban Population. The factories protected by the tariff would run at a profit and employ the urban population. The city dwellers would constitute an increased market for agricultural products and would manufacture goods for use in farming regions.

Why was the Fordney-McCumber Act instated?

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:The Fordney-McCumber Act of 1922 was a law that raised the American taxes on imported goods in order to protect the national factories and farms. However, the result of this measure was that high tariffs discouraged international trade. After five years of implementation, America’s trading partners, such as France and Germany, raised considerably their taxes on imported American goods, which represented a lower income of American goods in the European market. This resulted in agricultural depression and the increase in the cost of living in many cities of the US.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much do you trust mainstream news media? Are you more likely to trust an alternative outlet, like a r

NeTakaya

I personally on a scale of one to ten, would say a 5. I don’t trust mainstream news media that much, because it tends to be biased, especially in politics. I would more likely look at the website in more detail such as; who is the author? What date was it published? Is it biased? Etc.

Hope this helped :)
