What was Herbert Hoover's response

History
1 answer:
Anestetic [448]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Herbert Hoover was under the impression that the stock market crash of 1929 was a simple market correction, that it would go away if everybody just acted like everything was normal, and that markets simply do these things from time to time. Billboards circa 1930 with the blurb "Wasn't the depression terrible?" kind of summed up his tone-deaf approach to massive unemployment and runs on banks. He honestly believed that government intervention was not the answer.

By the time Roosevelt took office in 1933, he understood that no quick solutions were to be had. He did start a lot of public works projects, like the Works Projects Administration (which gave a lot of people short-term employment teaching, painting post office murals, and cleaning up public lands) and the Tennessee Valley Authority (which put a lot of broke farmers to work putting a utilities infrastructure in place in parts of the South, putting the pieces of a post-agricultural economy in place).

He also instituted several "bank holidays" to discourage panic-driven depositors from taking all their money out of their banks. Austerity became the new normal in America and stayed that way until the US entered World War II.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The vantage point is the man and woman dancing in the center. All the other figures in the painting are either looking at the man and woman, or their bodies are directed towards them. All the other people are close together, while the man and woman are spaced out and distanced from the other people. The angles of the furniture and room also lead the eye to the man and women.

How did modern india gain its independence
miss Akunina [59]

The modern day country of India gained its independence mostly in a peaceful manner. Led by Gandhi, the people of India were getting out on protests constantly for a prolonged period of time. Great Britain, weakened from the wars, saw that it will not be able to control this massive country and massive population, so a decision was made that an independence is granted to India. The way in which the independence came did not came to a very positive reaction, the reason being that the historic territory was divided into three separate countries, largely based on religion, with Pakistan and Bangladesh being the two separated territories. The joy of freedom was quickly replaced by numerous conflicts based mostly on religion, with the Hindu and Muslim populations clashing with each other, and millions of people suffering because of it.
