Answer:

  1. Abolition of the Draft system.
  2. War Powers Act.

Explanation:

The Vietnam War was a conflict between the forces of the Communist North Vietnamese along with their Viet Cong allies and the Capitalist South Vietnamese. The U.S. supported the South as they did not want communism to spread but had to leave when it became clear that the Communists would win. The war caused widespread dissent in the U.S. as many American soldiers died.

The War led to some consequences such as:

  • Abolition of the Draft system - As a result of the widespread criticism of the government for using a draft to increase the ranks of the U.S. army, the government finally abolished the draft. It is not impossible that the system will be used again but that possibility is highly unlikely and this was as a result of the Vietnam war.
  • War Powers Act - The war also led to the reduction of the war powers of the U.S. President with restrictions placed on how long they could engage the army in combat without Congressional approval.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Thomas Jefferson was 33 years old when he was tasked to write the Declaration of Independence by the Continental Congress in 1776, rendering entire generations of Americans slackers by comparison ever since. Jefferson at 33 boldly captured the will of a people frustrated with their absentee king and declared the equality of all men to be a truth powerful enough to abolish an unjust system of government; the rest of us are mostly trying to figure out how to set up our ETrade accounts.
