Answer:
The Battle of Saratoga
Explanation:
The battle of Saratoga which was fought on September 19 and October 7, 1777, in which Americans came off victorious is evidence that the Americans were better fighters than the British. In that battle, British forces led by General John Burgoyne advanced towards the American forces in New York City moving Southward, with the hope that some other forces were marching Northward and Eastward to join him in the battle.
That was not to happen as the American forces who were not as experienced as the British forces trapped the General and his military men and this eventually resulted in their surrender on October 17, 1777.

Answer:
I believe the rich have to pay a greater portion of their income in taxes than the poor.
Explanation:
According to Keynes' theory, when there is an economic crisis that dries out State accounts, the government should tax the rich to restore public investment. That policy would produce new jobs and consumption too. By then, the State will be prepared to ask everyone for paying taxes. However, it always has to be in regards to income, so you pay according to your own wealth. It is a social justice principle that can be found in any international code.
Answer: Though many of his military advisors indicated that an amphibious assault on Cuba by a group of lightly armed exiles had little chance for success, Kennedy gave the go-ahead for the attack. On April 17, 1961, around 1,200 exiles, armed with American weapons and using American landing craft, waded ashore at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba. The hope was that the exile force would serve as a rallying point for the Cuban citizenry, who would rise up and overthrow Castro’s government.
The plan immediately fell apart–the landing force met with unexpectedly rapid counterattacks from Castro’s military, the tiny Cuban air force sank most of the exiles’ supply ships, the United States refrained from providing necessary air support, and the expected uprising never happened. Over 100 of the attackers were killed, and more than 1,100 were captured.
The failure at the Bay of Pigs cost the United States dearly. Castro used the attack by the “Yankee imperialists” to solidify his power in Cuba and he requested additional Soviet military aid. Eventually that aid included missiles, and the construction of missile bases in Cuba sparked the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962, when the United States and the Soviet Union nearly came to blows over the island.
