To begin with, a political machine is an organization in which an organization gains support via promising rewards to those who keep them in power. It's designed to keep a particular group in power by promising favors. Typically, immigrants who first arrived here were impoverished, so political machines became so successful because they would promise to set immigrants up with homes or jobs or food so long as they had their vote.
So in short:
Who: Organizations whose main goals were getting and keeping power.
What: They essentially bribed immigrants for their votes.
Why: Political Machines did this to stay in power.
No, it wasn't and it had nothing to do with being a new country.
Answer:
<u>B) many agencies created under the New Deal were designed to provide financial relief, not to maintain economic stability.</u>
Explanation:
This option sounds more logical because it fits into the view of most economists, which is to achieve economic stability. However, those agencies weren't bringing economic stability but just giving out financial relief which does not guarantee economic stability.
Just as the old saying goes, <em>"prevention is better than a cure" </em>Hence, many agencies created under the New Deal were designed to provide financial relief (''a cure") but were not bringing about/maintaining economic stability ("a prevention").
True

transported flour, pork and whiskey from
farms in the northwest along American
rivers reaching as far away as the Caribbean Islands. These products were sold
and shipped and supported the businesses that developed from the industry.
