C. sharing the responsibility for government debt reduction.


When Clinton took office as president in 1993, the government needed to balance its budget, just as a business would do. Under the Clinton administration, tax rates were raised to increase revenue. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (also known as the Deficit Reduction Act) raised the top income tax rate from 28 percent to 36 percent persons with income above $115,000, and to 39.6 percent for persons with income above $250,000. It increased the corporate income tax rates and ended some corporate subsidies.


Government spending was cut also by reforming welfare. The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 pushed for welfare recipients to seek employment, and limited the total time they could receive benefits to five years.


Ultimately, Clinton's economic policies paid off. The government's budget deficit dropped from $290 billion to a budget surplus of $128 billion.

Describe the houses that some families lived in in the great depression
densk [106]

The Great Depression (1929-1939) was the worst economic downturn in modern history. The preceding decade, known as the “Roaring Twenties,” was a time of relative affluence for many middle- and working-class families. As the economy boomed, new innovations allowed for more leisure time and the creation of a consumer society. But the economic depression that followed those boon years profoundly affected the daily life of American families, in ways large and small.

Answer:

Third person objective.

Explanation:

The narrative point of view is the voice or point of view from which a story is told. It is the perspective or side on which the narration is based on.

In the given passage, the narration is done from a third-person objective point of view. This is because the narrator is simply describing the scene and has no knowledge of the characters and their feelings or emotions. Moreover, he is not part of the story/ scene and thus, is a silent, absent speaker who is simply telling or describing the scene for the readers.

Thus, the correct answer is the third person objective point of view.
