The answer is New Orleans
D. the sinking of the British ocean liner, <em>Lusitania.</em>
When a German U-boat (submarine) sank the <em>Lusitania </em>in May, 1915, over 1,000 persons were killed, including more than 100 Americans. The passenger liner was targeted by the Germans because they suspected weapons were being shipped to Britain in the cargo hold of the ship.
As an example of American feeling after the <em>Lusitania </em>incident, consider the reaction of Gifford Pinchot. He had been the Chief of the US Forestry Service (from 1905 to 1910) , and was quoted in the New York Times in May, 1915, after he had just recently returned from Europe. He asserted that Americans on the<em> Lusitania</em> (along with other passengers) were killed because an autocratic military empire was trying to dominate nations that were self-governing. His characterization of German intentions would mirror how President Woodrow Wilson later called on the USA to enter the war to "make the world safe for democracy."
Answer:
A sales tax is a type of indirect tax.
Explanation:
A sales tax is an indirect tax on point-of-purchase consumption for certain goods and services. This type of tax is usually calculated as a percentage of the final price to the consumer and is added to the price (tax-exclusive) or is already included (tax-inclusive).
The sales tax is the responsibility of the final consumer only; any intermediate buyer must produce a resale certificate to clear it and sales taxes are levied on any buyer who can not produce such a document.
The sales tax is set by each state and ranges from 0% (Oregon, Alaska, Montana, New Hampshire, New Mexico, and Delaware) to 8.75% (California). In some cases, cities or counties also set a sales tax, which is added to the state tax (the maximum rate is applied in some counties in commercial zones of Illinois with 11.5% in total). The national average is about 6%.
Coining money, overriding a presidential veto, and making laws are all congressional powers. Commanding the armed forces belongs to the President of the United States, as he is the Commander in Chief.
