Answer: President Reagan

The national debt rose rapidly during the 1980s. President Reagan followed a combination of lowered tax rates (from 70% to 28% at the top income tax rate) and increased defense spending. At the same time, Democrats blocked cuts to social programs. This led to the tripling of the Gross Federal Debt, from $900 billion to $2.7 trillion. The debt continued to rise during the presidency of George H. W. Bush, but decreased at the end of Bill Clinton's presidency.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: D. All of the above.

Explanation:

All of the above are examples as they show the influence that a people had on another people. The Chinese and their tea and porcelain vases became very popular in Europe which means that Europeans indulged in Chinese culture.
