The correct answer is B.

The problems the United States was expecting were the result of<em> excessive government spending.</em>

The economic policies promoted by Ronald Reagan are also known as Reaganomics. The four pillars of Reaganomics were :

<em>- to reduce the growth of governmental spending,</em>

- to reduce the federal income tax,

- to reduce government regulation,

- to tighten the money supply to reduce inflation.

In 1981, he signed into law significant cuts in government spending and tax rates. He cut the projected spending of the federal government by 4,7 % for the next fiscal year. Several Great Society Programs were sharply cut. There was a 32% cut in mass transport spending. According to many, these cuts were the most dramatic in the history of the country but many disagree with this statement. Government spending had been rising for more than three decades before, so all Reagan did was to bring it down to its state of 1970.

Answer:

b. By violating the social contract with the colonists, the king has lost his authority to rule.

Explanation:

The French philosopher John Locke is known for favoring a limited government that had to be accountable for the people it governs and having a great influence in may of Democratic governments that exist nowadays. In his Two Treatises of Government" (1689), Locke claimed that men were by nature free and equal, but with the purpose to interact in a healthy society, it was necessary that they transferred some of their rights to a government in a "Social Contract". Under that contract, the government had to be elected by the people and had to protect people's natural rights to life, liberty, and property. However, whenever the government failed to do so, people had the authority to abolish it and replace it.

These ideas highly influenced the Declaration of Independence. In this document, the Thirteen American Colonies unanimously declared independence from Britain for violating the social contract, as part of the document states:

<em>We hold these truths to be self-evident, that </em><em>all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.</em><em>--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That </em><em>whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government</em>

Critical Thinking question:
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Clark sees the Lakota people as savages not only because he considers their way of living as less developed than his own, but because the racist organization of the society was a requirement for the colonialist endeavor.

Explanation:

Although assimilation was the official government policy, the natives never really got the promised chance to preserve their way of life as long as they could adapt to new demands. The real goal was to take the natives' lands, and that could only be accomplished by spreading paternalistic and racist ideas such as the belief that the natives were savages.
