2 answers:

The NAFTA agreement benefits the US economy because it creates a free trade zone that comprises the territories of the US, Canada and Mexico. Outside the US borders but inside this zone, US products compete in equal conditions with the domestic production respectively in the Canadian and Mexican markets, enhancing US exports and total GDP.

Moreover, it also allows products from these two countries to enter the US markets and to compete in equal conditions with the domestic producers, which at first might be regarded as a drawback but it is not, because stronger competition forces US producers to keep on investing money on innovation and improvements in order to beat their rivals and attract consumers. Through this process, competition leads to more efficient industries which are able to produce at a lower cost. Finally, consumers are benefited too because they can acquire products at a cheaper market price.

How did President Roosevelt and President Hoover differ in their approaches to dealing with the Great Depression?

Romashka [77]

President Roosevelt and President Hoover differed in their approaches to dealing with the Great Depression because Roosevelt did many things to get the economy back in shape, while Hoover wanted to tackle the problem, but didn't want to get in depth with it.

________________________________________________

President Hoover had an impression that the stock market crash during 1929 was just a simple error in the market, and that it could easily be fixed. He said that it would be fixed if everyone acted normal and act like the stock market crash never happened. The government intervention for him was not a solution.

_________________________________________________

President Roosevelt became president right after Hoover, and he noticed the problem the stock market crash had on people in the economy. The thing that he did is that he made a lot of public works projects. For example, the Works Projects Administration, was a organization which gave people short-time employments to keep them on the right track, and get the stock market crash off their minds and give them some income. He also made "bank holidays" which didn't allow people to take all of their money out of their bank account. He was doing many things to fix the economy from the Great Depression.

A region that features a high water table has...

marta [7]

Answer:

B. Underground water close to the surface of the land

Explanation:

The water table is the underground dividing line between the unsaturated zone in the upper layer and the saturated zone in the lower layer. The unsaturated zone is the soil surface and zone of aeration where oxygen and water permeate through the soil. The saturated zone is composed of hard rock. When water precipitates from the soil, the result is the groundwater found below the water table.

Groundwater overflows as springs into water bodies at the point where the land surface converges with the water table. Therefore, regions with high table water will have their underground water close to the land surface.
