The correct answer is A.Social Security mains popular whereas social welfare programs have been curtailed.
B. neither group of programs has many zealous supporters in Congress. This is wrong because Social Security is a very popular program and the benefits are guarded zealously.
C.both programs face serious opposition from interest groups such as AARP. This is wrong because AARP (formerly the American Association of Retired Persons) represents people that are over 50 years and AARP defend interests related to Social Security program, mandatory retirement or medical care.
D.considerable majorities of the public would like to see both programs massively expanded. This is wrong because people see Social Security in a positive way as they contribute to it while working and then receive it back, as if they did an investment and are earning it back rather than receiving a government handout. While Social Welfare is the transferring income from Social Security funds to Social Welfare or paid by government. So public would like Social Security program to be expanded while the Welfare program has been reformed to end up with the thirty-year policy of no American child hungry in the US.
During the Nuremberg Trials, the top leaders of the Nazi Party in Germany, including Hitler were tried and convicted of war crimes. True or false
FALSE
Hitler committed suicide at the end of World War II, so that already makes the statement false.
The Nuremberg trials were a series of 13 trials carried out in Nuremberg, Germany, between 1945 and 1949, seeking to bring many Nazi Party officials and high-ranking military officers to justice, as well as leading businessmen, lawyers, and doctors involved with the Nazi cause. Herman Goering was the highest-raking Nazi official to be put on trial at Nuremberg.
How did the white South's intransigence and President Johnson's political bungling open the way for congressional Republican program of military Reconstruction?
President Johnson's lenient approach to Reconstruction and conflict with Congressional Republicans led to the Radical Republican's control and a military Reconstruction that aimed to protect freedmen's rights. Despite initial efforts and the Fifteenth Amendment, Reconstruction ended with the withdrawal of Union troops in 1877. The clash resulted in Johnson's impeachment and the election of President Ulysses S. Grant.
Explanation:The intransigence of the white South and President Johnson's political bungling played significant roles in shaping the trajectory of Reconstruction after the Civil War. President Johnson's approach, following Lincoln's assassination, aimed for swift reintegration of the Southern states with relatively lenient terms. This stance, coupled with his political missteps and confrontation with Republicans in Congress — who were pushing for greater rights for the freed people and a thorough Reconstruction of the South — led to a significant conflict. Johnson's inability to work collaboratively with Congress and the stubbornness of Southern whites in resisting changes that aimed to eliminate the vestiges of slavery allowed Radical Republicans to take control and implement a military Reconstruction program, which involved federal enforcement of rights for freedmen and rebuilding the Southern political and social systems.
Radical Republicans, advocating for a more equal society, saw the need to push their program forward, leading to the ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment, granting black men the right to vote. Yet, despite these measures, the efforts put forth by the Republicans could not sustain the long-term objective of an interracial democracy that provided equal rights to all citizens, as Reconstruction ended with the withdrawal of Union troops in 1877.
The clash between President Johnson's lenient approach and the Radical Republicans' push for a transformative Reconstruction led to the impeachment of Johnson, though he narrowly avoided removal from office. Ultimately, Ulysses S. Grant won the presidency with the promise of peace, marking a pivotal turn in the nation's effort to reconstruct.

Mexico attacked the United States in order to reacquire territory it had lost in the Mexican-American War.
German troops became demoralized and eventually surrendered in the face of the arrival of fresh US troops.
Ottoman forces shifted their troops to fight against the Allied powers on the western front.

Do you agree or disagree with his domestic and foreign policies? What is your opinion of his attitude toward foreign nations and peoples? Do you agree or disagree with his methods of achieving his goals for the United States? In your own words, be as detailed as possible.

He was the first President whose election was based more on the individual than the political party. When people voted Republican in 1904, they were generally casting their vote for Roosevelt the man instead of for him as the standard-bearer of the Republican Party. The most popular President up to his time, Roosevelt used his enthusiasm to win votes, to shape issues, and to mold opinions. In the process, he changed the executive office forever.
How did the Hippocratic Oath influence modern medical practices?
The Hippocratic Oath is a public oath that is made by people who graduate from medicine and pharmacy. It has an ethical character that guides the physician in the practice of his/her profession. The origin of this tradition can be traced back to Ancient Greece, where the famous physician Hippocrates would have redacted this oath for his disciples and students.
Since the Renaissance, a period in Europe characterized by the veneration of Greek and Roman values, the oath started to be used by many schools of physicians. It was widely spread since the 19th century in western countries and, especially after the WWII, throughout the world.
The modern medical practice is strongly influenced by this oath mainly in the ethical aspect. This tradition is taken as a rite of passage for every physician in the world, as an act of compromise to heal people and to act in the benefit of humanity.

2. Would someone who was concerned that citizens' rights were being attacked support total incorporation or selective incorporation? Why? (1 point)
The incorporation doctrine was adopted by the newly formed U.S nation once the Bill of Rights was established. It instituted the application of the first ten ammendments of the U.S Constitution for the states of the Union and established that citizen´s rights had to be maintained as established by the Bill of Rights. However, before the enactment of the Fourteenth Amendment, the fulfillment of these rights and duties was forced only on the federal government and the states, free from its grasp, enacted laws that violated citizen´s rights. Because of several aftereffects of this and conflicts that ensued from this violation, the Fourteenth Amendment was passed in 1873 and it was stated that under no circumstances could the states establish laws that went against what had been stated in the U.S Constitution. This also gave further powers to the federal government to curtail the freedom of states to enable laws that violated citizen´s rights. This is why a person concerned with citize´s rights would support selective incorporation rather than total incorporation.
Someone who was concerned that citizen's rights were being attacked will support total incorporation because total incorporation will protect the Bill of Rights in all the possible combinations and permutations possible while selective incorporation may miss some laws or find some loopholes to protect you.You have to go to Supreme Court and get permission for total incorporation in your particular case.

Maria has 3/4 pounds of trail mix. She needs to share it equally among 6 friends. How much will each friend be given?
We will divide the shaded portion so that it includes six equal‐sized pieces which would be 1/8. We divided them into two pieces. which means there is 8 pieces. What does each piece or section represent? 1/8
Maria can distribute 3/4 pounds of trail mix among 6 friends equally by giving each friend 1/8 pound of trail mix.
Explanation:If Maria has 3/4 pounds of trail mix and needs to distribute it equally among 6 friends, she would have to divide the total weight of trail mix by the number of friends. By dividing 3/4 by 6, each friend will receive 1/8 pound of trail mix.
This can be understood better by imagining the 3/4 pound of trail mix divided into 6 equal pieces. Each of those 6 pieces would be 1/8 of a pound, amounting to the total 3/4 pound. Therefore, each friend receives 1/8 pound of the trail mix.
