Who controls how federal aid is spent under Nixon? Under JFK/LBJ?

History
1 answer:
nexus9112 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

you have LBJ to thank for Medicare, Medicaid, and Head Start. He championed the right for minorities to vote, buy homes, and go to school the same as whites. Johnson's Great Society program created the National Endowment for the Arts, the Public Broadcasting Corporation, and drivers' education.3

You also have him to thank for the scar of the Vietnam War, which he escalated but could not win.

LBJ's increased government spending added $42 billion, or 13%, to the national debt. It was almost double the amount added by JFK, but less than a third of the debt added by President Nixon. Since Johnson, every president has increased the debt by at least 30%

It also boosted gross domestic product during Johnson's term. As a result, LBJ was one of the few presidents to avoid any recessions. The unemployment rate fell during the years he was in office.

What effect did the Iconoclast controversy have
Grace [21]
The Iconoclast controversy caused the banning of religious icons in Christianity and the killing of supporters of the veneration of icons. The iconoclast controversy happened twice during the Byzantine Empire. This impacted the growing divergence between Western and Eastern Christian traditions, but the Western Church stood firmly with the belief that icons could be used, but the Church was still unified at the time.

Which detail from this first-hand account of the Tet Offensive demonstrates that it was a surprise attack?
avanturin [10]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Tet was launched in January 30th 1968, Tet being the Chinese New Year.

The attack was a complete surprise. The guard of the South Vietnamese army was lowered by Tet celebrations. Moreover the Vietcong and NVA switched their offensive from the countryside to the cities, which again took the South Vietnamese and Americans by surprise.

The fact that the Vietcong could get right inside the American embassy in Saigon emphasized the surprise nature of the attack.

Tet was actually a military defeat for the communists as they sustained massive losses. However psychologically it was a massive victory for them. Widespread coverage of the raging battles in cities such as Saigon and Hue on American televisions every night, swayed public opinion against the war, as the images suggested the Vietcong could go anywhere, and so it suggested the US was losing the war.
