Dear Auntie,
How are you? How is your family style going? The year is 1932, and I've been listening to the election between Roosevelt and Hoover. My side of the story isn't so bright as you would've or expected it to be. Over the past few days I was doing fine until I was plummeted into poverty by the stock market crash. I might loos my job Auntie. I'm gonna cry. I don't like this. And now I have to live in a one bedroom apartment with seven of our family members. It's so crammed in that apartment. Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt were two men with completely opposite ideas on how to get the country out of the Great Depression. Not only were their policies different from one another, and the way they were raised, they were also from different political parties.
I don't know who's gonna win this election. It'd the Great Depression here, there, maybe even where you live. I don't like it here. It get more sad and people just want to have a good life after and during this election because they want a really good president. Maybe I can vote this time? The seven families are doing fine by the way cause I just knew you wanted to know. I might have to move back to Europe. Everyone here is so..... mean, depressed, worried about how there life is going to end up as. I don't blame them. I love you Auntie and I want to see you again but, I don't know if that's gonna happen in the great depression and me being an immigrant..
Sincerely your niece,
Leah
P.S. everyone loves and really misses you. We will figure this out together as a family. I really love you.
Americans hated President Hoover. They believed that he was the source of all of their misfortune. To top off their hatred, Hoover refused to get the government involved in kickstarting the economy.
Both the state government and the federal government have the power to collect taxes Federal government usually provide some basic regulation regardng the taxation, and the states could determine which things that could or could not be used as a tax write off. That why a lot of companies are made in a more tax favorable state such as delaware
Hope this helps!

The serious difficulty for the national government under the Articles of Confederation is "It lacked the authority to raise money to support itself
".
<u>
Explanation:
</u>
The Article of Confederation gave away most of the power to the state and federal government had only limited control over the state. Particularly this article made a power less national government during the American Revolution.
The American states were of the opinion that if the strong national government is there in the central means it may affect the autonomy of the states.
So the states were strongly objected to the formation of strong central government and felt that the most decision making power should be with them.
The downfall of The Article of confederation was simply because it has no power to make laws to control the states.
