In an economic downturn, what can happen in countries that depend on high taxes to fund social programs?
mestny [16]

If there's an economic downturn in a country where the taxes are very high, and those taxes are used for the funding of the numerous social programs, than the country can very quickly face high rates of poverty and maybe even an internal conflict.

If the economy suddenly starts to crumble, the people that work would not be able to support themselves with the paying of very high taxes, thus they will rebel against that in order for the taxes to be lowered down.

On the other hand, that will result in little to no funding for the social programs. That will bring in revolt in the people that are very poor and need those programs, but also the people that do not work by their will but have relied on those money.

These two sides of the picture can easily bring in a lot of violence, tensions, even a revolution.

Disease played an important part in the decline of the aztec population, Aztec caught the disease (small pox) after the arrival of the spanish. Smallpox quickly spread among the population and people had no resistance and did not know how to treat it.  In many cases, everyone in a house died.  With no time to bury so many people, houses were simply demolished over the bodies. it is believed that 25% of the empire was lost to the disease.  But more importantly,the Aztec chain of command was in ruins.  The emperor, Cuitláhuac, died of smallpox, along with many of the leaders of the army.

aztecs. it began in February 1519, and the spanish were declared victorious on August 13, 1521, when an army of Spanish led by Hernán Cortés and Xicotencatl the Younger captured Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztec Empire.
