The late 19th century was the time where there is
an upsurge of mass creation of merchandises by the new machines. Since the
people begun depending through the machines, it replaced the highly capable
craftsman in one commerce after another. This massive change resulted to increasing
desirability of labor organizations. Those labor unions were able to establish
work stoppage or commonly known as “strike”, that may expose their complaints
about the working circumstances and incomes. During that time the business
leaders respond to their actions by locking-out their union workers and began
hiring no-union labor.
Answer:
“The Significance of the Frontier in American History.” Students quickly perceive that while Turner had a way with words, his argument was not wholly original. He distilled ideas already present in American popular thought and many of them are present in this painting, painted some two decades earlier.
As students begin to describe what they see, they quickly realize that they’re looking at a kind of historical encyclopedia of transportation technologies. The simple Indian travois precedes the covered wagon and the pony express, the overland stage and the three railroad lines. The static painting thus conveys a vivid sense of the passage of time as well as of the inevitability of technological progress. The groups of human figures read from left to right, convey much the same idea. Indians precede Euro-American prospectors, who in turn come before the farmers and settlers. The idea of progress coming from the East to the West, and the notion that the frontier would be developed by sequential waves of people (here and in Turner’s configuration, always men) was deeply rooted in American thought.

The Watergate scandal involved the break-in by the Republicans into the Democratic National Convention headquarters at the Watergate Hotel in Washington, DC in 1972. This criminal activity became a constitutional crisis because the Nixon administration attempted to cover-up the event. In the course of investigating the break-in, numerous abuses were uncovered by journalists (Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein at the <em>Washington Post</em>)and investigators. The arrest of the five burglars and subsequent investigations by the FBI found a link between the burglars and the Pre-Election Campaign Fund for Richard Nixon. An investigation of former Nixon staff, revealed an elaborate tape recording system in the Oval Office. Once the courts ordered the release of the tapes, it was clear they implicated Nixon in the break-in. Rather than face impeachment, Nixon resigned before Articles of Impeachment could be voted on in the U.S. House of Representatives. This scandal tarnished the presidency and exposed fundamental flaws in Nixon's character and decision making abilities.
Unlike Watergate, the Iran-Contra Scandal involved the selling of arms to Iran and the proceeds from those sales being funneled to the Contras in Nicaragua who were fighting the Sandinistas. These activities were spearheaded by members of the Reagan administration during his second administration (1984-1988). Initially, the administration argued the funds were being used to free American hostages held in Lebanon by Hezbollah, an Islamic terrorist group. In 1985, Colonel Oliver North was implicated in diverting money to the to the Contras. The scandal was investigated by the U.S. Congress and the Tower Commission, a three person appointed by Reagan. The investigation never implicated Ronald Reagan.
The Watergate scandal was clearly the more damaging. It weakened Americans faith in the presidency and led to the resignation of Richard Nixon.
