Herbert Hoover is blamed for the Great Depression because it occurred while he was president. Hoover's response to the Depression was also very slow and guarded. He relied more on individua and private agencies and never enlisted the federal government in any way to address the crisis. He did sponsor the Reconstruction Finance Corporation late in his administration, but this was overshadowed by the violent dispersal of the Bonus Army, The Bonus Army consisted on World War I veterans who marched on Washington demanding their pensions. They were forcibly dispersed by General Pershing from the Washington Mall after refusing to leave. This disappointing episode and the continued decline in the markets led to the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

<span>Loaded with ice a sunny winter morning
After a rain. They click upon themselves
As the breeze rises, and turn many-colored
As the stir cracks and crazes their enamel.
Soon the sun's warmth makes them shed crystal shells (10)</span>

Explain the issue with the Quartering Act.​
zvonat [6]

Answer:

American colonist  were being taxed to pay for provisions and barracks for the army.

Explanation:

American colonists resented and opposed the Quartering Act of 1765, not because it meant they had to house British soldiers in their homes, but because they were being taxed to pay for provisions and barracks for the army – a standing army that they thought was unnecessary during peacetime and an army that they feared
