The correct answer is: "The Marshall plan contributed to the economic boom that took place in Europe after WWII".

The Marshall Plan was an initiative launched by the US in 1948 to help the recovery of Western European countries after WWII. $ 12 billion were sent to rebuild those countries and to boost their economies by rebuilding factories, infrastructures, civil buildings, etc.

The US had adopted the containment strategy, a foreign affairs approach which focused on stopping the spread of communism worldwide. Therefore, rebuilding Western Europe under the influence of the US was beneficial because the Western European powers would side with the US and act as a barrier for containing communism, that was in fact suceeding on the Eastern regions of the continent.

Answer: Prevent the spread of western ideas in particular Christianity.

Explanation:

As Europeans were exploring Asian countries with the goal of creating trade agreements, many areas were experiencing a push of western culture. To prevent the influence of western culture, the Tokugawa Shogunate refused westerners and made western culture unlawful. Christianity was considered particularly harmful to Japanese culture and hierarchy. The Shogun removed missionaries from the country and made the practice of Christianity illegal. The samurai also resented western influence because it promoted the status of merchants and degraded their own position in society.

Answer:

"Oregon has a slightly higher overall rate of crime than most states according to FBI reporting for both property and violent crime. See the link below for our best places to live in Oregon list for some of the safest (& best) places in Oregon.

Oregon residents pay a higher tax burden overall than people residing in most other US states according to the Tax Foundation. True, above in the “pro” portion we highlighted the fact that Oregon doesn’t collect sales tax on purchases. However, all states have roads, police protection and or other services they must provide for residents and they must raise funds to pay for it somehow. Oregon’s income tax burden is one of the highest in the nation. It is progressive, meaning lower income earners pay a lower percentage than those with high incomes. Income tax rates start at 5% and rise as income does, to a top rate of 9.9%.

Oregon has a higher cost of living than most other states. Housing in most of Oregon is not cheap. Okay, it’s actually quite expensive with a median home price far above the national average. The cost of goods and services across a wide range including groceries also costs more in Oregon than most states. The only major cost of living category that runs less in Oregon is the cost of utilities according to the Missouri Economic Research and Information Center (information was derived from Council for Community and Economic Research).

Oregon students have slightly lower test scores than students in most other states according to the National Center for Education Statistics. The teacher to student ratio is considerably higher than the national average. Despite those two lower scoring factors, more Oregonian students have attain a high school diploma or college degree in the last few years than the national average, according to the US Census Bureau.

The quality of health care in Oregon is slightly lower than it is in most other states according to the US Health and Human Service’s Agency on Research and Healthcare Quality."
