President Truman's "Fair Deal" proposed that Congress work on:
- Expanding Social Security
- Increase minimum wage from 40 to 75 cents an hour
- Implementing anti-discrimination policies in employment
- Addressing civil rights issues
- Expanding public housing
- Providing federal aid to education
- Establishing national health insurance
There were more proposals as well, but most of the proposals (including those noted above) did not gain any traction with Congress. Congress did extend Social Security coverage and raise the benefits, and also did raise the minimum wage. But other proposals did not go into effect.
Answer:
Advantages of the North:
- Population: the North had 22 million people at the start of the civil war, while the south had 9 million, less than half. This proved crucial because it allowed the North to field larger armies over a longer period of time (especially when soldiers began to die in large numbers).
- Industry: the North was industrializing, while the South was essentially agricultural. This meant that the North had better supply lines, more railways, and more factories.
- Leadership: most historians agree that Abraham Lincoln was a far more effective leader than Jefferson Davis.
The South had many disadvantages and most historians agree that winning the war for the Confederacy was practically impossible, however one advtange the South had was:
- Territory: the Confederacy was vast, rural, the climate was hot and humid, and tropical diseases were common. The northern soldiers had it harder to adapt to this conditions, and the North had to invade the vast territory while the Confederacy only had to defend.
