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.

The Enlightenment differed from Romanticism in many ways. First, The Enlightenment placed immense importance on thoughts and reasoning while Romantics focused on emotions and self- experience.

Answer:
The economic, social and political causes of the Civil War were:
- Racism. The social cause for the Civil War was mostly racism, the people in the South wanted to keep their slaves because they were workers that they didn't have to pay for their farm, and they were using them for labor. The North wanted to abolish slavery, but the South didn't want them to.
- Tariffs. In the North, people could afford high tariffs because they were working in factories, and industrialization was very common over there. But, the people in the South could not afford to pay the high tariffs, and felt betrayed by the North. They were going into debt and couldn't afford to keep their farms and plantations.
- The political reason for the Civil War was the President, Abraham Lincoln. He had been elected that year was loved by the North, but not the South. The North loved him because he wanted to abolish slavery, raise tariffs, and he promoted the industrialization of the South, and didn't want slavery to be carried on to the West. The South didn't like that, so they caused a war.
