The correct answer is D) They controlled more of their own planning and finances.
Tenant farmers needed to be better at managing money than sharecroppers because they controlled more of their own planning and finances.
After the abolition of slavery at the end of the Civil War and during the time of Reconstruction, Southern landowners rented portions of the farm field to former slaves in order to work and produce cash crops. The new system was called "sharecropping."Farmers in exchange had to give the landlord a big portion of the crops. That is why tenants had to be very careful and better at managing money than sharecroppers because they controlled more of their own planning and finances. It was a matter of establishing good control and operative procedures.
In terms of net profit (births minus deaths), we are adding more than 200,000 people to this planet every day, or more than 140 people per minute. That means we have more than 75 million people each year, almost the entire population of California and Canada combined.
We have come to a certain time in which most of what we do are basically based on what we see, hear, and observe from other through the social media, the mass media, and other influential groups. I admit, I am one of those easily influenced by the mentioned media. However, it is really up to us to stand firm on our beliefs and never waver even in times when our principles are put to test.
