What could a government do to increase the demand for wind-generated electricity?

Answer:

The easiest way for the government to increase demand for wind-generated electricity is to subsidize this type of energy.

Explanation:

The subsidy would be either given to firms so that they can lower the price, or to consumers, so that they can use the subsidy to purchase the wind electricity at the market price. In either case, the subsidy would lower the price of wind-generated electricity for consumers, increasing demand accordingly.

This subsidy would be justified because wind-generated electricity represents a positive externality that is not always accounted for in the market price (hence why it is an externality), and the positive externality is that wind-generated electricity is a clean source of energy that does not contribute to climate change, and that does not cause any air pollution.

natita [175]

Answer:

FDR was the first, and last, president to win more than two consecutive presidential elections and his exclusive four terms were in part a consequence of timing. His election for a third term took place as the United States remained in the throes of the Great Depression and World War II had just begun. While multiple presidents had sought third terms before, the instability of the times allowed FDR to make a strong case for stability.

Eventually U.S. lawmakers pushed back, arguing that term limits were necessary to keep abuse of power in check. Two years after FDR’s death, Congress passed the 22nd Amendment, limiting presidents to two terms. Then amendment was then ratified in 1951.

At the time of FDR’s third presidential run, however, “There was nothing but precedent standing in his way,” says Perry. “But, still, precedent, especially as it relates to the presidency, can be pretty powerful.”es and you have foreign policy with the outbreak of World War II in 1939,” says Barbara Perry, professor and director of presidential studies at the University of Virginia’s Miller Center. “And then you have his own political viability—he had won the 1936 election with more than two-thirds of the popular vote.
