King George was outraged by this so he shut down the boston harbor until all of the tea was paid for.
The election is too close to call would be the best answer to your question :)
Problem One
Contrary to what many conservatives would like to have as a Christmas present, Education is not a business. So C is not a choice. What you see on your screen is my crocodile tears weeping for their loss.
An outbreak of avian flu and the warning that would come after that is not really business related either. It is just an agency doing it's job. D is not a choice.
Crime makes money the way some businesses do but the FBI working to solve crimes is not really Business related. Not when they are investigating local crime. Hence B is not the answer.
I would have chosen A before I read that it is the department of highways doing the construction of the roadways. It's not the answer.
That leaves us with E. And it is the answer. Ask any cancer patient how they feel about the FDA interfering with possible treatments and stand back a bit. The FDA is not very popular with either Big Pharma or patients, but it is an example of Governments regulating the market place.
Answer E
Problem Two
It's E. The very least he can do is vote for the candidate that he likes. But the real contribution that he can make is to go from door to door and knock on the wood and talk to the people inside.
What contributed to economic recovery in the South and Southwest after World War II was that they were (depending on the location where you mean South and Southwest) either in a good economic standing due to an industry that was able to boom again, and or receiving money from other nations which helped them rebuild.
A way citizens can directly influence the public policy is by following it or not. If there is a policy that no one agrees with, they will not follow it and show that the policy is wrong. When this is done, the policy will go away. That is how citizens can directly change this.
