ian said that corporations are paying too much in taxes and are funding most of the federal government’s operations. When you speak to the politician after the event, what would you say?

Answer:

d. "We have a great deal of work to do. On the news tonight, I predict there will be an expert correcting you and questioning why anyone would vote for you."    

Explanation:

At the recent, the politician said that all the corporations are paying too much taxes and are helping the federal government to fund most of their operations. As an economic adviser to the politician, I would inform him that corporations are paying taxes as per the rules and guidelines of the federal tax laws and it is large source of revenue to the federal government to run most of its welfare schemes.

Hence in the news debate tonight, there will be some expert correcting the politician and will question him why people will vote him and what is his future plans on economics and taxes.

Thus the answer is --

d. "We have a great deal of work to do. On the news tonight, I predict there will be an expert correcting you and questioning why anyone would vote for you."

Lincoln's victory in the Election of 1864 was a. supported by Northern soldiers furloughed home to support McClellan at the poll
TEA [102]

Answer:

The correct answer is b: in doubt until the great Union victories in the Battles of Atlanta and Mobile Bay

Explanation:

President Lincoln (1809-1865) was re-elected in the Election of 1864 mostly because of the great <em>Union</em> victories in the Battles of Atlanta and Mobile Bay. These two were significant blows to the <em>Confederacy</em>, and until those victories, Lincoln winning the election had been much in doubt. One of the reasons was that the <em>Civil War</em> was taking longer than expected to come to an end - but the spirit and morale in the North were lifted due to the Union victory in the two battles. This was a crucial aspect that secured the <em>re-election</em> of President Lincoln, who, on <em>November 8</em>, defeated George McClellan (1826-1885), his <em>Democratic competitor</em>, once a Union general.

This 1864 presidential election was only held only for those states which had not separated themselves from the <em>Union</em>.
