B The Vietnam war was active during both of their presidencies
C The Iranian Hostage Crisis was an issue for both presidents
D Economic issues were a problem during both of their presidencies

D -  Economic issues were a problem during both presidencies.

Explanation:

Gerald Ford was the 38th American president who served between 1947-1977, while Jim Carter was the 39th American President who served between 1977-1981. The major similarity between the presidency of Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter was that during their tenure in office, economic issues was the biggest challenge they faced. For instance, during the tenure of Gerald Ford, America suffered severe recession and a high rate of unemployment. Also, during Jimmy Carter's regime, America also experienced very rough economic history with very high inflation, high interest rate, oil shortage and slow economic growth.

Stemming from the above, it will be safe to submit that the answer is D.

since most of current immigration into the u.s., both legal and illegal, is coming from latin america. it would be very difficult to imagine or rationalize a country my fellow citizens are trying desperately to flee into, would pose a threat to my prosperity or freedom. since the u.s. has a long history of intervention, but no record of permanent occupation, i would not feel oppression is the main objective.  

the largest free trade nation, along with the largest gdp in the world wanting to expand it's economic policy on us, and including us, could only be positive. the u.s. government has no interest in, or way of simply forcing american culture on us. and has no track record of it. other nations that adopted american social culture, or "americanization" did so voluntarily, mainly through the choice of allowing american businesses and u.s. citizens to come into their nations, as free operatives.

answer: a

explanation:  

stocks and bonds are the two main classes of assets investors use in their portfolios. stocks offer an ownership stake in a company, while bonds are akin to loans made to a company (a corporate bond) or other organization (like the u.s. treasury). in general, stocks are considered riskier and more volatile than bonds.

savings accounts are just money in a bank- they are insured by the fdic for up to 250,000.   very little risk

the average mutual fund holds hundreds of different securities, which means mutual fund shareholders gain important diversification at a low price. which means if one stock or bond drops it will have very little affect on the mutual fund - again very little risk
