In virtue of the World War Adjusted Compensation Act, U.S. World War I veterans were granted certificates, or bonuses,  for their service in the Armed Forces during the Great War to be redeemed in 1945. Due to the onset of the Depression, in 1932, a large group of veterans out of jobs and desperate to get some money to support their families, marched to Washington D.C. where they camped in order to request the government to honor the bonuses well ahead of their redemption date. The government refused and had U.S. Army units remove the demonstrators by the force of arms, including six tanks, resulting in two World War I veterans killed and over a thousand injured. Four years later the Congress ordered the payment of the certificates nine years before their redemption date.

Use this passage to answer the following question:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
From what it seems, I have read this and I believe the answer to be,

"The cotton gin was one of the most amazing and tragic inventions of early America."

From my experience, I believe this is the answer because it is the starting sentence and there were no facts provided beforehand to support the claim that it was one of the most amazing and tragic inventions of early America. This answer also uses some of the basic rules of opinion statements. Such as using the term "most".

Hopefully this helped!

Happy studying!
