C) Reestablished controls on prices, wages, and rents.
In 1946, a joint resolution of Congress extended the price controls enacted during World War II for an extra year past their initially planned end date, in order to help as the country transitioned to a peacetime economy. The government wanted to get away from price controls, but didn't want to do so too abruptly. The joint resolution (passed in July, 1946), included this statement: "It is hereby declared to be the policy of the Congress that the Office of Price Administration, and other agencies of the Government, shall use their price, subsidy, and other powers to promote the earliest practicable balance between production and the demand therefor of commodities under their control, and that the general control of prices and the use of subsidy powers shall, subject to other specific provisions of this Act, be terminated as rapidly as possible consistent with the policies and purposes set forth in this section and in no event later than June 30, 1947, and on that date the Office of Price Administration shall be abolished.
"
So there was a temporary extension of the price control measures, reestablished or extended by the joint resolution of Congress.
Answer:
Domino Theory
Explanation:
The Domino Theory referred to the idea that if a country became communist, neighboring countries would become communist too, in a more or less short time frame.
The name from the theory comes from the fact that when dominoes are arranged vertically, if one domino falls down, all the other fall down as well.
The Domino Theory was one of the basis for the Vietnam War. The American leadership believed that if Vietnam became communist, neighboring countries such as Laos, Thailand or Malasya would soon become communist too.
In the end, the Domino Theory did not prove fully correct. For example, while Laos did become communist soon after, niether Thailand nor Malasya became so.
Slavic and Scandinavian countries are very rich in resources, and Russia wanted to control most trade in Europe until the collapse of the Soviet Union. More trade = More power and they were still recovering after the HARD losses when the Germans' invaded Leningrad and the war.
