The war on poverty: question 37 options: a. was first proposed by richard nixon as a means to gain support of congressional democrats during eisenhower's second term. b. was not a part of johnson's great society agenda. c. concentrated on equipping the poor with skills and rebuilding their spirit and motivation. d. guaranteed an annual income for most americans. e. focused on understanding economic changes and responding to them

The War on Poverty was the name given in the Johnson administration that focused on a set of bills and laws to reduce poverty in the US. In 1964, Johnson announced a series of laws were intended to provide tools and education to the poor in order to live in decent conditions and to get a job. Among the laws and acts passes to reduce poverty were: “Economic Opportunity Act”, “Job Corps” and “Head Start”. All these acts were part of the “Great Society” program launched by the Johnson administration. In this case, option C) is the correct one “concentrated on equipping the poor with skills and rebuilding their spirit and motivation.”

Option A) is incorrect since the War on Poverty program was introduced in Johnson’s administration and not on Nixon’s.  

Option B) is also incorrect since the Great Society program included the War on Poverty

Option D) is also incorrect since the objective of the acts and laws passed to reduce poverty were focused on providing training, education and tools to the poor.

Finally, option E) is also incorrect since the acts and laws passed were not focused on understanding economic changes but on providing tools for the poor people to get a better life.

explanation:

not everyone in america is free. it is has always been a unequal society. and yet people come in swarms, in search of better lives. some are brought as children, unaware, unknowing. some arrive and just don’t leave. they build lives, pay taxes, raise families. some enter illegally, fleeing persecution in their home country.

there are many reasons why human beings are so attracted to america, despite its history of bitterness towards immigrants.

there are almost two million immigrants brought to the us when they were children. president donald trump and his collaborators are determined to rid the us of as many undocumented immigrants as they can, and stop others from coming because none of their ancestors were immigrants.

america has so many things and yet it lacks the one thing that humanity needs to fully thrive. and so this country will not be at peace in itself until it resolves the pain at the heart of slavery, attacking immigrants, and crumble the rights of those with less power.

answer: a parliamentary system is a system of democratic governance of a state where the executive derives its democratic legitimacy from its ability to command the confidence of the legislature, typically a parliament, and is also held accountable to that parliament. in a parliamentary system, the head of state is usually a person distinct from the head of government. this is in contrast to a presidential system, where the head of state often is also the head of government and, most importantly, the executive does not derive its democratic legitimacy from the legislature.

countries with parliamentary democracies may be constitutional monarchies, where a monarch is the head of state while the head of government is almost always a member of parliament (such as the united kingdom, denmark, sweden, and japan), or parliamentary republics, where a mostly ceremonial president is the head of state while the head of government is regularly from the legislature (such as ireland, germany, india, and italy). in a few parliamentary republics, such as botswana, south africa, and suriname, among some others, the head of government is also head of state, but is elected by and is answerable to parliament. in bicameral parliaments, the head of government is generally, though not always, a member of the lower house.

parliamentarianism is the dominant form of government in europe, with 32 of its 50 sovereign states being parliamentarian. it is also common in the caribbean, being the form of government of 10 of its 13 island states, and in oceania. elsewhere in the world, parliamentary countries are less common, but they are distributed through all continents, most often in former colonies of the british empire that subscribe to a particular brand of parliamentarianism known as the westminster system.
