The answer is: politicians have a strong incentive to support projects that yield immediate and easily recognized benefits, especially when the costs of the projects are difficult to identify and are observable only in the distant future

In our current political system , politicians have a constant threat of losing their position if they do not show any results to their voter base during the election period.

This means that they are much more likely to support the projects that  yield immediate and easily recognized benefits in order to maintain high approval rating and increase their chance of being re-elected.

Why did the Aryans come to India
mariarad [96]

Aryans came to India, with the British, in the 19th century. Many British Indologists and a German one, created the Aryan invasion theory, by giving racist meaning to a Sanskrit word 'arya' which meant nobleman, at a time when race was used to justify colonialism. So, Aryans entered India, not by land, not by sea, nor did they land from the sky. They came through the textbook route.

Answer:

Business model innovation

Explanation:

Business model innovation is not about the innovation of new technologies but it is about existing technologies where existing products made and the existing market will be there where the product launched.

It is very simple and based on existed technologies. The changes are invisible to the world and the changes bring innovative changes that others could not copy it.  

A framework about the product will help the manager in establishing a reliable and innovative discipline. There should be an innovative idea that can change the perspective of the business model and where can a manager take the decision in favor of innovative business development.

In what ways did the American economy change in the late 19th century, and what were the consequences to such changes to various
djyliett [7]

Answer:

In the decades following the Civil War, the United States emerged as an industrial giant. Old industries expanded and many new ones, including petroleum refining, steel manufacturing, and electrical power, emerged. Railroads expanded significantly, bringing even remote parts of the country into a national market economy.

Industrial growth transformed American society. It produced a new class of wealthy industrialists and a prosperous middle class. It also produced a vastly expanded blue collar working class. The labor force that made industrialization possible was made up of millions of newly arrived immigrants and even larger numbers of migrants from rural areas. American society became more diverse than ever before.

Not everyone shared in the economic prosperity of this period. Many workers were typically unemployed at least part of the year, and their wages were relatively low when they did work. This situation led many workers to support and join labor unions. Meanwhile, farmers also faced hard times as technology and increasing production led to more competition and falling prices for farm products. Hard times on farms led many young people to move to the city in search of better job opportunities.

Americans who were born in the 1840s and 1850s would experience enormous changes in their lifetimes. Some of these changes resulted from a sweeping technological revolution. Their major source of light, for example, would change from candles, to kerosene lamps, and then to electric light bulbs. They would see their transportation evolve from walking and horse power to steam-powered locomotives, to electric trolley cars, to gasoline-powered automobiles. Born into a society in which the vast majority of people were involved in agriculture, they experienced an industrial revolution that radically changed the ways millions of people worked and where they lived. They would experience the migration of millions of people from rural America to the nation's rapidly growing cities
