The correct answer is B) He wanted to deal with the problems of those unable to work at all: retirees, the disabled, dependent mothers, and children.


The Social Security Act was one of several different federal agencies created by Franklin D. Roosevelt as part of his New Deal policies. The New Deal program was supposed to help America recover from the Great Depression by developing employment programs and providing direct financial assistance to American citizens. In this sense, the individuals who needed the financial assistance the most were people who were unable to work. This explains why the Social Security Act was structured with these people in mind.

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The armies of the North and the South

Explanation:

The Civil war began in 1861 and lasted up to 1865. During the Civil War, both sides agreed to settle the matter of slavery through war. Despite agreeing both sides were somewhat weak and unprepared. The North was dependent on manufacturing industries that helped them produce war goods. The Union only had 16,000 trained soldiers. Most recruits didn't know how to fight and needed training.

The South had the military advantage because they fought for their land and had knowledge of the terrain (landscape) better than the North. The South had much more men trained as officers. The majority of the famous Generals and Commanders in America were from the Southern region including; Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, James Longstreet, Nathan Bedford Forrest, and others. The Southern officers (Confederate) known for their ambitious nature who followed the rules of honour and personal pride, which help them to fight together for the cause.

The South had a weak economy as they depended on agriculture and had no manufacturing industries. They also didn't have much transportation or a fleet of ships to blockaded and couldn't trade with European countries.

Historians use primary and secondary sources to collect historical evidence. What is the difference between these two sources?
____ [38]
Primary sources are sources that are directly from the time that an event took place that can give first hand knowledge about an event or occurrence. These include newspaper articles, video footage, or a personal account from an individual who was there when a historical event took place. Whereas a secondary source is a step removed in that the author is analyzing primary sources or is writing from a position where they don't possess direct knowledge to an event but are using historical evidence to provide a perspective on a particular issue or historical event.
