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.

2. What were the beginnings<br> of agriculture in the Americas
rjkz [21]

Answer:

indigenous peoples in the Americas created a variety of agricultural systems that were suited to a wide range of environments, from southern Canada to southern South America and from high elevations in the Andes to the lowlands of the Amazon River. Agriculture arose independently in at least three regions: South America, M-e-s-o-america, and eastern North America. Although the Americas had several indigenous animal species that were domesticated, none were of an appropriate size or temperament for use as draft animals; as a result, the plow and other technology reliant on heavy traction were unknown.

Sweden production, also known as slash-and-burn agriculture, was practiced from temperate eastern North America to the tropical lowlands of South America. Field fertility in Sweden systems resulted from the burning of trees and shrubs in order to add nutrients to the soil. Such systems had high ecological diversity, thus providing a range of resources and prolonging the usefulness of what would otherwise have been short-lived fields and gardens. Settlements moved when productivity significantly declined and firewood was in low supply.
