History

Brums [2.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

Various groups of people moved to the West after the Civil War were the Southerners along with Mormons, and Protestants when the government issued an Act called the Homestead Act of 1862. Under this Act, land in the West was opened for thousands of American to settle there. People started to move to the West because of population growth in the eastern states. Availability of fertile land at a cheaper price in the West drove the white American to develop ranch and farm.

How did president Hoover's governing philosophy influence his efforts to conbat the great depression
AlekseyPX
President Hoover was unprepared for the scope of the depression crisis, and his limited response did not begin to help the millions of Americans in need. The steps he took were very much in keeping with his philosophy of limited government, a philosophy that many had shared with him until the upheavals of the Great Depression made it clear that a more direct government response was required. But Hoover was stubborn in his refusal to give “handouts,” as he saw direct government aid. He called for a spirit of volunteerism among America’s businesses, asking them to keep workers employed, and he exhorted the American people to tighten their belts and make do in the spirit of “rugged individualism.” While Hoover’s philosophy and his appeal to the country were very much in keeping with his character, it was not enough to keep the economy from plummeting further into economic chaos.

The steps Hoover did ultimately take were too little, too late. He created programs for putting people back to work and helping beleaguered local and state charities with aid. But the programs were small in scale and highly specific as to who could benefit, and they only touched a small percentage of those in need. As the situation worsened, the public grew increasingly unhappy with Hoover. He left office with one of the lowest approval ratings of any president in history.
