I have encountered this question before. This was my answer.
The United States pursued gradual engagement to the Allied nations of Europe by passing the Lend-Lease Bill.
Under this bill, the United States will provide Great Britain the necessary supplies and armaments that it needs to fight against Germany. Knowing that Great Britain's liquidity is questionable, the United States will not demand immediate payment and when the time comes that payment is demanded,they will accept other modes of payment beside cash.
<span>In this scenario, the United States did not violate the Neutrality Act of 1939. They also ensured that the war fought in Europe will not reach their shores by ensuring that Great Britain has the capacity to fight and win the war against Germany. Thus, their assistance through lend-lease bill. </span>
Before Mao Zedong: China was underdeveloped with healthcare facilities and educational institutions only serving the privileged upper class. During this period, there were outlaws that performed despicable deeds such as massacring people. Furthermore, the country's ruling power was divided into several tribe chieftains, warlords, and dynasties. In short, there was no central ruling body. Slavery was commonplace and women were not respected and were treated as possessions.
After Mao Zedong's rule, the women were finally recognized and given the same privileges that men had. Warlords which have been dominating their territories and living off the people's hard earned tributes for countless years were uprooted. Slavery as well as headhunting, which were common practices, were greatly discouraged and over time, were phased out. Poverty was greatly diminished and the people's life expectancy lengthened. With more access to healthcare facilities, the previous life expectancy which was set at 40 increased to 70.
