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.

Answer:

In 1992, presidential candidate H. Ross Perot said that signing the NAFTA agreement would produce a "giant sucking sound" in the United States. He meant that NAFTA would make jobs in the United States go to Mexico, where laboral costs were lower, thus producing unemployment and poverty in the United States. In view of the events, 17 years later we can affirm that the fears of H. Ross Perot were never confirmed.
