1. The main factors were because of fuels. Because of an energy crisis up until 2008, the fuel prices skyrocketed which meant that sustainable cars became a priority for buyers. The big three american manufacturers didn't make such vehicles as  the US was always a great market for SUVs and other powerful and large cars and sales started to drop and they started losing huge amounts of money because people started buying vehicles that had better fuel consumption or didn't buy at all.

2. At first the government supported the unions who managed to win some and lose some in a series of compromises with company owners. In the end, the government had to give a huge amount of money to the big 3 in order to bail them out since they were almost filing for bankruptcy.

3. The advice would be to start supporting sustainable green cars that are electric powered or biofuel powered and not just make huge SUVs powered by oil. The crisis never would've happened if it had been that way from the beginning.

Based on this document, state one reason many African Americans did not benefit from New Deal programs.
gogolik [260]

It did not bring to an end the tremendous injustices that African Americans had to suffer on a day-to-day basis, and some of its activities, such as the work of the Federal Housing Administration, served to build rather than break down the walls of segregation that separated black from white in Jim Crow America. Yet as Mary McLeod Bethune once noted, the Roosevelt era represented “the first time in their history” that African Americans felt that they could communicate their grievances to their government with the “expectancy of sympathetic understanding and interpretation.” Indeed, it was during the New Deal, that the silent, invisible hand of racism was fully exposed as a national issue; as a problem that at the very least needed to be recognized; as something the county could no longer pretend did not exist.
