What is increased to increase revenue that people generally don't like

Answers

Answer: Prices

Explanation:

There are several ways to raise revenue from sales and one of them is to increase prices. With a higher price, more money will be paid per goods and if the cost is still the same, the increase in price becomes extra profit.

Increased prices however reduce the amount of money that consumers have after purchases so they do not like it when prices are increased. It reduces the amount of goods they can buy especially if their wages do not go up as well because they will have to spend more per good.

The text states that defending the US against terrorism is difficult. Why was especially difficult to defend against a threat like Osama bin Laden?

Answers

Answer:

the wake of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the United States launched an international war on terrorism defined by military intervention, nation building, and efforts to reshape the politics of the Middle East. As of 2017, however, it has become clear that the American strategy has destabilized the Middle East while doing little to protect the United States from terrorism.

After 15 years of considerable strategic consistency during the presidencies of George Bush and Barack Obama, Donald Trump now takes the reins having promised to “bomb the sh—” out of ISIS and “defeat them fast.” At the same time, however, Trump broke sharply in his campaign rhetoric from Republican orthodoxy on Iraq and Afghanistan. Whatever President Trump decides to do, an evaluation of the War on Terror should inform his policies.

We argue that the War on Terror failed. This failure has two fundamental—and related—sources. The first is the inflated assessment of the terror threat facing the United States, which led to an expansive counterterrorism campaign that did not protect Americans from terrorist attacks. The second source of failure is the adoption of an aggressive strategy of military intervention.

The lessons from the War on Terror indicate that it is time for the United States to take a different approach. Policymakers need to acknowledge that although terrorism is a serious concern, it represents only a modest security threat to the American homeland. Further, the United States should abandon the use of military intervention and nation building in the War on Terror. Instead, the United States should push regional partners to confront terrorist groups abroad, while the U.S. returns to an emphasis on the intelligence and law enforcement paradigm for combating the threat against the American homeland.

How did the attacks of Sept. 11th, 2001 change the world that we all live in today?

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

     Two hijacked planes smashed into the World Trade Center buildings in New York City on September 11, 2001. A third plane collided with the Pentagon, and a fourth airliner was shot down in a Pennsylvania field by brave passengers attempting to stop the terrorists. A large number of people were injured, and a large number of people killed. This was an extraordinary attack that shocked the entire world.    

    The American people have changed in the way that we do not trust so easily and can sometimes feel fearful now of other cultures. After the terrorist attack on September 11th, America was never the same. For one, air travel completely changed. The al Qaeda hijackers were able to pass airport security, board the plane with no issues, and then force themselves into the cockpit. It was clear that America’s security failed and was not at the level it should have been at. This all changed when the Transportation Security Administration was created and authorized by the United States Congress in November of that year. With the TSA came new regulations that are what we see today. TSA requires photo IDs to pass through the screening area, shoes need to be removed, carry on liquids can only be in three-ounce containers, and one needs to pass through full-body scanners. They have also been trained to detect signs of suspicious behavior. I believe that students should be taught this when they can understand the seriousness of this event that occurred. The event should be taught as it happened. There is no reason to make the event less of what it was. They should talk about the ones who suffered, the ones who gave their lives for others, and the families and friends who lost someone. It is important to teach this event that changed America forever. I think the memorial is very appropriate and it is good to honor and remember those who lost their lives. This is especially important for the ones who lost someone in their lives.

which factors are considered when deciding how much of something to produce?

Answers

Answer:

I think the demand for that specific produce

Demand is always the paramount factor for determining a product’s production schedule (amount). However, it isn’t always as cut and dry as “how much do people want of this?” A product will always have its high points and low points, so producers need to determine the demand of a product by taking into consideration the level of that product’s awareness (how many people know about it), the cost of the product, and the amount of competition that the product has. Also, when it comes to competition, you need to see how much people like your product vs your competitors, how many people are loyal to your brand, and if they’re willing to stay loyal even if your competition is cutting their prices.

Discuss and evaluate the major issues in the America Revolutionary War, the War of 1812 and the American Civil War. What were the expectations on each side, what were the advantages and disadvantages for each and what eventually turned the tide toward the colonists, the United States and the Union near the end of each of these respective conflicts

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

As you already know, the Civil War was an armed conflict between the northern states (which formed the union army) and the southern states (which formed the confederate army). The aim of this war was to determine whether southern states could separate themselves from the United States and form an independent country and whether slavery should be banned across the country.

The Confederate Army had the advantages of easy access to supplies, since it was formed by the states that promoted all the agricultural production in the country. In addition, the Confederate army had a good banking system, which facilitated financing for the war.

However, the Union army had a larger number of soldiers and a stronger economy, in addition to having a large production of weapons and ammunition. These advantages gave the union victory, but in addition, the lack of foreign support for the Confederate army and the blocking of southern supplies that the union made, allowed them to win.

How did the Marshall Plan impact the European economy in the post World War II era? (10 points)

Answers

Answer:

El Plan Marshall —oficialmente llamado European Recovery Program (ERP)— fue una iniciativa de Estados Unidos para ayudar a Europa Occidental, en la que los estadounidenses dieron ayudas económicas por valor de unos 12 000 millones de dólares de la época1​ para la reconstrucción de aquellos países de Europa devastados tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial. El plan estuvo en funcionamiento durante cuatro años desde 1948.

Tras seis años de guerra, buena parte de Europa estaba devastada y millones de personas habían muerto o quedado lisiadas. Los combates se habían producido prácticamente por todas partes, abarcando un área mucho más grande que la que había sido afectada durante la Primera Guerra Mundial. A causa de los bombardeos aéreos, la mayor parte de las ciudades estaban muy dañadas, en especial las áreas industriales que habían sido los objetivos principales de dichos bombardeos. Berlín y Varsovia eran montañas de escombros, y Londres y Róterdam habían quedado muy perjudicadas. La estructura económica del continente había quedado en nada y millones de personas se encontraban en la indigencia. Aun cuando el episodio de hambre holandesa de 1944 se pudo resolver, la devastación general de la agricultura provocó una oleada de hambre en toda Europa, agravada por el duro invierno de 1946-1947 en el noreste del continente. También estaban destruidas las infraestructuras como, por ejemplo, las vías férreas, los puentes y las carreteras, que habían sido objetivo principal de los bombardeos aéreos, y muchos barcos de carga habían sido hundidos. Los municipios más pequeños no habían sufrido tanto los destrozos de la guerra, pero la carencia de redes de transporte los había dejado prácticamente aislados tanto física como económicamente.

Tras la Primera Guerra Mundial, la economía europea también había quedado muy dañada, y la profunda recesión económica duró hasta bien entrados los años 1920, con la inestabilidad y la bajada generalizada de precios que esto conllevó a la economía global. Los Estados Unidos, pese a un resurgimiento del aislacionismo, habían procurado ayudar al crecimiento europeo, sobre todo mediante la colaboración de los grandes bancos estadounidenses. Cuando Alemania no pudo pagar las reparaciones de guerra, los estadounidenses también contribuyeron ampliando los préstamos que Alemania había solicitado, una deuda que a los estadounidenses todavía no les había sido resarcida cuando entraron en la Segunda Guerra Mundial en 1941.
