The correct answer is D) "Population in rural areas grew faster than urban areas".
After the <em>Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo</em>, where Mexico ultimately gave the US control of Texas in exchange for an economic compensation, the border between both countries was established at the Rio Grande.
This finally paved the way for immigrants to come to Texas and settle in the lands where cotton production was possible, resulting in a rapid growth of rural populations.
<span>Foreign investors owned a greater amount US stocks, bonds, and factories than investors in the US owned of assets in foreign markets.
In 1985, the <em>New York Times</em> reported, "U.S. Turns into Debtor Nation," because a Commerce Department report showed the US "owing foreigners more then they owe it." By that they meant that "foreign ownership of American factories, real estate, stocks and bonds exceeded American ownership of foreign assets."
However, there's another way to look at this picture than the "debtor nation" label. The Heritage Foundation (a conservative group) noted in 1985 that having foreign investors pursuing assets in the United States indicated strong confidence by those investors in </span><span>the </span>American<span> economy. You invest in a country's assets because you think those assets will grow in value. So, becoming a "debtor nation" can be viewed as a sign of economic health in the eyes of the rest of the world.</span>
