Answer:

A. Many immigrants had no skills and were forced to take low-paying jobs.

C. Many immigrants were looking for political freedom that had been denied them at home.

Explanation:

New research by Stanford economist Ran Abramitzky studies Norwegian immigrants to the U.S. during the late 19th and early 20th centuries who chose to return to Europe. Return migrants hailed from poorer backgrounds but ended up holding higher-paid occupations back home.

In the late 1800s, people in many parts of the world decided to leave their homes and immigrate to the United States. Fleeing crop failure, land and job shortages, rising taxes, and famine, many came to the U. S. because it was perceived as the land of economic opportunity. Others came seeking personal freedom or relief from political and religious persecution, and nearly 12 million immigrants arrived in the United States between 1870 and 1900

With which statements would Roosevelt most likely agree?

Ber [7]

The correct answers are the following:

Most relief efforts should be at the state and local government levels.
A strong executive is needed to lead the country.
The banking industry should be more strictly regulated.

During Roosevelt's presidency, the New Deal was implemented in the 1930s decade to combat the harsh situation of the US economy during the years of the Great Depression.

The New Deal was based on Keynesian economics that identified, as the major cause of the Great Depression, the extremely low aggregate demand figures. The solution proposed was to boost demand figures by directing large sums of public money to the creation of job positions for the large unemployed sectors, so that they could start to earn a salary and to demand products again.

Therefore, the Keynesian solution involved goverment interventionism in the economy at all levels. Also more regulations were demanded for the economy, in order to prevent a similar crisis the future, triggered by the private sector (more specifically, by the banking sector) and which had ended up damaging the whole economy.
