Answer:
There's a popular belief that Americans fought and won the entire revolution with nothing but guerrilla warfare. That's not true, and the myth largely stems from how the war began. The very first military engagement between British and American forces occurred on April 19 of 1775. American militia men had been covertly transporting weapons and colonial government leaders from town to town, hiding them from the British army. The British heard about these stockpiles in the Massachusetts towns of Lexington and Concord and went to seize them. The American volunteers of these town gathered together to oppose the British, resulting in a brief skirmish. As the British beat a hasty retreat back towards Boston, American militia units basically popped out of the bushes along the entire road, shot a few volleys, and disappeared. It wasn't enough to decimate the British, but the British weren't prepared for it, and it drove them back.
Explanation:
Imagine that you are in charge of leading a small army of volunteer soldiers against the largest and most powerful professional army in the world. Are you going to march straight into battle? Not if you expect it to be a very long one!
For centuries, small armies have relied on guerrilla warfare to help even the odds. This includes non-traditional wartime tactics like ambushing, sabotage, and raids rather than direct engagements. Guerrilla warfare is not meant to really defeat an opponent; instead, the idea is to make the war drag on and become so expensive that your adversary gives up. It's the different between fighting a professional boxer versus a swarm of mosquitoes - the mosquitoes won't kill you, but they just may drive you away.
Amongst the many armies to try out these tactics were the American colonists fighting for their independence. The American Revolution was a conflict between a group of volunteers and a massive professional army. Did they think they could defeat Britain, the heavyweight champion of European colonialism? Maybe not, but while Britain prepared to defend its title, it was the colonists who learned how to 'float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.'

Explanation:
Polycrates was known for his wealth. He ruled as a tyrant on Samos's island located in the northern part of the Aegean Sea. He ruled from 540 to 522 BC. He gained his wealth by piracy, and Herodotus wrote about it. After being fraudulently captured by the Persian nobleman Oretus, he died a violent death, who had him crucified.
The relevant highlighted example is "but we propose to limit poverty that we will allow to be inflicted upon any man's family."
<h3>What does Huey Long mean?</h3>
- Senator Long believes that even if it isn't possible to give the poor a basic income, that it should be possible to limit their poverty.
- That giving a family $5,000 would go a long way in alleviating poverty.
Senator Long is therefore saying that in order to fight poverty, the government needs to support the poor so that they can rise out of poverty though various means such as educating their children.
