Answer:

"weary of the 'Negro Question'" and "'sick of carpet-bag' government." are related to the same political, social end economical event that happened in the USA after the end of the Civil War: The Reconstruction era. Congressional Reconstruction included the stipulation that to reenter the Union, former Confederate states had to ratify the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Congress also passed the Military Reconstruction Act, which attempted to protect the voting rights and civil rights of African Americans. Former Confederates resented the new state constitutions because of their provisions allowing for black voting and civil rights, where we can explain the "weary of the 'Negro Question'". Carpetbaggers were northerners who allegedly rushed South with all their belongings in carpetbags to grab the political spoils were more often than not Union veterans who had arrived as early as 1865 or 1866, drawn South by the hope of economic opportunity and other attractions that many of them had seen in their Union service. Many other so-called carpetbaggers were teachers, social workers, or preachers animated by a sincere missionary impulse.

Why did Congress approve the National Defense Education Act

earnstyle [38]

The National Defense Education Act is a federal legislation signed into law by President Dwight D. Eisenhower on 1958. The Act provided funding to American schools and promoted post-secondary education.

One of the main reasons why Congress approved the Act was because they felt it would enable Americans to compete with Soviet science and technology. During the Cold War, such concerns over national security and competitive advantage were very influential in the drafting of legislation.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

GDP is measured by taking the quantities of all goods and services produced, multiplying them by their prices, and summing the total. GDP can be measured either by the sum of what is purchased in the economy or by what is produced. Demand can be divided into consumption, investment, government, exports, and imports.

The business cycle model shows how a nation's real GDP fluctuates over time, going through phases as aggregate output increases and decreases. Over the long-run, the business cycle shows a steady increase in potential output in a growing economy.
