History homework edit

Blaine Glover 19 – 02 – 10 History Assignment 20 – America in WWII In Text – Chapter 12 – America and WWII Section 1 – Mobilizing for War 1.It used the assembly line to produce military land vehicles, 2.African American soldiers were segregated from the white soldiers, given separate facilities, and people wanted them to work in construction and not in battle. 3.They were initially given clerical work, but then they were given the ability to serve in the navy, the Coast Guard, and the marines. Section 2 – The Early Battles 1.The Doolittle Raid was the first American airstrike on Japan. This inspired the Japanese to change their plan to the destruction of the American naval fleet. 2.The Battle of Midway was the Japanese response to the Doolittle Raid. It ended badly for Japan, when it lost the heart of its fleet and over a thousand soldiers. 3.asdf 4.To give experience to troops and to help out Britain. 5.A followup by Germany to attack the American navy. Yes; after the scene in Japan, Germany must have been pretty ballsy to try to attack the US Navy. 6.Hitler decided to attack the SU at Stalingraad, but the Germans lost, putting them on the defensive. Section 3 – Life on the Home Front 1.Women not only served in the military, but they also worked in defence plants and other factories. 2. They weren’t treating them fairly, but eventually they were forced to. 3.People just kept assuming that minorities were somehow inherently untrustworthy or violent, so they did the most ironic thing possible and acted violent. 4.The government assumed that all Japanese people were probably traitors, so they sent them to horrible internment camps (totally not at all close to Hitler and the Jews) 5.There were housing issues and worker shortages, but people helped out by rationing and shutting off lights on coastal cities. Geography Skills, p 589 1.The West. 2.Job opportunities. Section 4 – Pushing the Axis Back 1.American troops blasted them to bits, the Italian troops were losing morale, and they all hated their leader. Germany was all “Pfft, heck no” and put Mussollini back in power by invading Italy and pushing out the Americans. 2.They were placing dummy weapons to fool Germany into fortifying the wrong coast, and they also had to do a bit of weather prediction. 3.asdf 4.asdf Section 5 – The War Ends 1.Germany wanted to launch a final assault on American supply lines, so they tried. The target town was surrounded but Eisenhower ordered Patton to burst the surrounding lines, so they did. 2.Hitler went and offed himself because he knew what was coming; the Americans had breeched German defenses and were to take Berlin. 3.They needed to destroy Japan's war production. It destroyed a lot of war production, but also ALOT of urban area. 4.They dropped the bomb to avoid sacrificing American soldiers. It ended the war, but I'm not sure it was the best way to. 5.They were war crimes trials against some of the people responsible for the non-American atrocities committed during the war. They kept the world complacent and addressed some of the issues from the war. Primary Sources, pg 618 and 619 1.Nemo wasn't retreating and everyone else was. Everyone had to retreat, too, because the Germans had them. 2.Death. 3.It was terrifying. Eyewitnesses 53, 55, 56 53 – 1.They didn't expect attacks on civilians. 2.Asdf 3.asdf 55 – 1.They didn't think she had what it took, because she was a lady. 2.She fixed the mistakes of other people who'd borked their work. 3.They probably expected to be working like that fairly permanently; they probably didn't want to stop. 56 – 1.New white officers were put in place to observe old black ones, black officers couldn't carry a sidearm, etc 2.My guess is because racism. 3.He probably assumed they were somehow less intelligent because they were black. After they turned out to be not quite at all different from white people, he either went “Yeah, well...” or “Oh okay.” Navajo Code Talkers – 1.

Econ homework edit

Blaine Glover 19 – 02 – 10 Econ Chapter 1 – What is Economics?

Profiles in Economics – 1.Wealth is defined by production, and production improves as worker skill improves. Competition being an invisible hand will drive productivity to its highest state. Economic freedom should be as close to 100% as possible. Reviewing Key Terms – 1.capital goods 2.value 3.services 4.scarcity 5.opportunity cost 6.human capital 7.asdf Reviewing Key Facts – 1.Goods do not come from nowhere. The stuff required to make that lunch came from somewhere, and someone else had to “pay”, somehow, for that stuff. 2.The cause of scarcity is lack of production. 3.What needs to be produced? With what methods are we going to produce it? Who wants/needs it? 4.It deals with peoples' behaviour. Specifically, the way they shuffle money around to get what they need. 5.A trade-off is essentially one choice among many, with several factors to consider for each decision you can make. 6.If you're making a decision to buy one thing instead of others, your opportunity to buy those other things (at this point in time) is closed off. By buying Item X, you have also given up your ability to buy items Y and Z. 7.Both supply and demand and opportunity cost. 8.A need is what one requires to survive. A want is a means of expressing any given need. 9.Free products are items with such a low scarcity that they do not, could not, and need not a price. Economic products are items with an important scarcity that can have a price and, therefore, impact the economy. 10.Services are far too difficult to measure, especially on a very large scale, so they shouldn't be included in the wealth of a nation until they can be measured easily. 11.
