FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
The domestic manufacturers will continue to confront serious financial burdens, wholly apart from any changes in fuel economy regulations. The domestic automotive industry is mature and highly cyclical; the peaks and troughs in vehicle demand essentially parallel economic activity. Even though Chrysler, Ford, and General Motors have diversified through foreign vehicle production and sales, as well as nonautomotive activities in financial services, defense electronics, and vehicle rental companies, vehicle production in North America is an important part of their total sales. The level of vehicle demand is the primary factor in determining profitability, but market share and the mix of cars and trucks and of small and large cars also influence profits.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, we can answer the following.
The failure of the Articles of Confederation led to the creation of the Constitution and the creation of separation of powers with checks and balances because the Article of Confederation had left a weak central government that practically was not able to do anything important. The central government, in the hands of Congress, was not able to raise money. If it needed some, it had to ask for it from the states because they were the ones that remained sovereign and could collect money through taxation.
That is why the delegates met at the Constitutional Convention held in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the summer of 1787, to create a new Constitution and a new form of government for the United States.
