1 answer:

8 0

The correct answer would be: The 1939 cash-and-carry amendment to the Neutrality Acts favored Britain over Germany because "Britain had a larger fleet of ships to carry arms than Germany".

With this amendment, lobbied by Roosevelt, the U.S. was allowed to trade arms with belligerent countries in Europe. The only condition was that the recipients provided transport and paid immediately in cash. <u>Great Britain</u> and France had absolute control of the seas, so the amendment put them at a massive advantage over Germany by being able to transport weaponery safely and freely.

Hope this helps!

Did new immigrants achieve the "American Dream" that they had hoped for?

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Depends

Explanation:

Depends on which time they immigrated. If it was during the depression or war then definetly not, and the 20th century had plenty of political unrest in America (WW2, Vietnam, etc) so an argument could be made that they did not achieve the American Dream, but on the other hand it depends on who it was and where they were from compared to America.
