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.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

That statement is false.

Explanation:

The US Food and drug administrations actually require all ingredients to be listed under the food label, not only the top 5. This rule was created as a form of consumers protection to ensure that companies do not put dangerous ingredients in the food, even a little.

The FDA require all the ingredients to be put in descending order based on the amount of ingredients' weight.

Which event occurred first?
Misha Larkins [42]

What came first was the Louisiana Purchase.  Napoleon sold Louisiana to the United States when he failed reestablish an extension of the Empire after getting it from Spain.  This gave the Americans more territory and many Americans wanted to move west.  After that was Missouri Compromise where the balance between slave state and Free state was maintained.  With the creation of the Kansas Nebraska Act, the Missouri Compromise was nulled as an effect.  This would later affect the Kansas elections and later lead to Civil War.
