Why was the word "escalation" used by critics of the Vietnam War?

History
1 answer:
Sloan [31]3 years ago
5 0

Because LBJ, under the Tolkien Resolution, was given basically infinite power to protect U.S interests in Vietnam. Thus, President Johnson continued to "escalate", or build up American forces, weapons, and intervention in Vietnam. Now, somewhat opposite of this would be "Vietnamization" under Nixon, which was the gradual withdrawal of American troops but a continuation of supplies in order to aid South Vietnam from the Vietcong.

Explain how taxation helped to shape one specific us government action from the period 1865 to 1900
zloy xaker [14]

On this day in 1861, in order to finance the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Revenue Act, imposing the first federal income tax in U.S. history.

<u> Explanation: </u>

The main aim of the taxation is for the finance of war effort. An act called Internal Revenue Act was formulated by the congress in the 1862 which formed a governing body called Bureau of Internal Revenue who will take care of the collection of taxes.

The money collected in the form of taxes has reduced the burden of the government war spending but on the other side it has affected the livelihood of the people in America.

The mixed response from the general public has paved way for the conflict in the society and led to the unrest. But on the other hand the revenue collected from the taxation is used for policy related projects and urban infrastructure development.
