Answer:

Following a 16-day government shutdown, another round of kick-the-can when it comes to the U.S. debt ceiling, and rabid debates over the future of Obamacare, it's not surprising to discover that Americans don't think very highly of Congress.

I know from a personal perspective I'm not too pleased with the effort either party has put in over the past couple of years, but three polls since 2011 speak wonders to the amount of vitriol directed at Congress.

madam [21]

What was the primary purpose of the Wannsee Conference?

The primary purpose of the Wannsee Conference was to decide the fate of the Jewish people.

The Wannsee Conference was a high-level meeting of German officials where they discussed a 'final solution' (it was a code) for the mass killing of Jews. It required important coordination and cooperation.

The Wannsee Conference was delivered by Heydrich. He announced that they would receive approximately 11,000,000 Jews from Europe, also from the United Kingdom, and from neutral nations like Switzerland, Ireland, Sweden, Spain, Portugal, and European Turkey. So during the meeting, they discussed that they would have to divide Jews into different regions, according to their gender, etc.

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

1.No protection for the common man

2.Divide and rule
