Answer:

Economic: moving natural resources from West to East.

Political: expanding the democratic way of life.

Social: the population was expanding and many wanted to go to California to look for gold.

Explanation:

Iris Chang wrote a book in which she wrote of the history of the Central Pacific Railroad, although some writers consider she went forward with the myth, as fact. The transcontinental railroad was primarily designed to move natural resources from west to east in the United States, and there was no reliable transportation to cross the continent.

According to Chang, U.S. population was willing to move to the West, as gold was discovered in California, and the hard work the Chinese accomplished this dream, as Chinese workers were preferred over many other workers because they were more productive. Chang states that Chinese employees took the risks although the non-caring attitude of the white bosses towards their Chinese employees.

An example of politicians' deliberate slanting of facts is: C. the claim that free trade is the cause for the loss of millions of manufacturing jobs.

In English language, a fact is an evidential information provided about a specific event, topic, or subject matter in its actual and true conditions.

This ultimately implies that, a fact clearly and concisely presents the fundamental reality of a thing (subject) based on an empirical study and/or objective consensus.  

Slanting of facts refers to an act in which a speaker or writer includes his or her biased ideas or opinions when presenting a fact to an audience. Thus, it typically involves selecting facts that essentially favors your bias while discrediting the true situation of things.

In this context, the claim that free trade is the cause for the loss of millions of manufacturing jobs is an example of politicians' deliberate slanting of facts because is more likely to open up a country's economy for increased trade and by extension creating more employment opportunities in the manufacturing sector.
