Answer: C. protect new industries

Explanation:

Tariffs are charges to imported goods with the double aim of reducing imports and earning more income from them.

In the early days of industrialization, the U.S. lagged behind the more advanced European economies which meant that the Europeans could produce things cheaper than Americans and therefore sell cheaper as well.

Congress therefore believed that to protect new companies that were rising to meet the challenge they had to impose tariffs so that people would stop buying more imports and switch to the goods produced by the new industries.

Why might u.s. officials have believed that sitting bull stared the ghost dance movement?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

They believed he might have started the Ghost Dance Movement because of his firce opposition to Anglo-Americans influence on the lives of Native Americans.

The Lakota Sioux chief, Sitting Bull, was one of the most influential leaders of the great plains. He was involved in many battles and the Standing Rock Indian Agency feared that he might incite the Sioux and others to rebel.

When the mystical Ghost Dance ritual started in 1890, the Agents feared it might lead to an Indian uprising. They wrongly believed Sitting Bull was the driving force behind it because of his influence in the tribe. He was shot by an Indian Agent among fears he might escape the reservation with Ghost Dance followers and form some type of armed resistance.

The real founder of the Ghost Dance was a Paiute Indian from Nevada called Wovoka, also known as Jack Wilson.

Why would someone who is studying the history or culture of this time period Find this text interesting important or useful

shusha [124]

I can't see the text but as for your question most of the history in the history books seem (to most) to have happened a lifetime ago so they don't really see how it retains to them and their lives. They live in the present time so they want present events. I believe that although past history is important to learn, we must also take notice of the historic events that are taking place right now. It lets us know what countries are doing (I.e war,trade,ect.) as well as our own and how we are involved in the affairs we are currently in. Most importantly it as a lesson and a reminder to the future generations on how certain events caused certain destruction. It is a stain in time so to speak so they will not take the action's we took in the past to lead them to the repetition of our past and current mistakes.
