Answer:

Indulgence.

Explanation:

Indulgence refers to the grant of pardon given by the Pope that allows a person to be safe in purgatory and be 'forgiven' or be given a reduced punishment for the punishments due to him/her. In other words, indulgence means the "document" that grants pardon or forgiveness to a person after death, allowing him/her to be safe from being punished or be given a lesser punishment for the sins committed.

In the past, selling indulgences was a common practice and the church was also privy to that act. Moreover, it also allowed the "holy men" to 'sell' such pardons to get money. And this practice led people to believe that committing sins is an allowed 'enjoyment' as long as one can buy indulgences.

Why did the United States abandon the gold standard in the 1930s? The government wanted to rapidly expand the money supply in re
baherus [9]

Answer:

In the 1930s, the United States abandoned the gold standard because the government wanted to rapidly expand the money supply in response to the Great Depression.

Explanation:

The Gold Standard monetary system was abandoned during the years after the Great Depression of 1929 to prevent prices and wages from falling in response to a general reduction in global demand, so that adjustments fell on the total amount of employment. Under these conditions, the depreciation of the exchange rate (that is, the abandonment of the pure gold standard) was considered "less painful" (in order to reduce exports). This prevented the reduction of wages, especially since the pressure of the unions imposed this kind of policy in some way. And all this in addition without taking into account that all countries, sooner or later, would adopt the same policy, resort to devaluation, with which the destruction of employment for years was inevitable.
