Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal vs. Barack Obama's Economic Stimulus Plan Aiding the economy was what both of these plans were meant for. Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s New Deal aided the American economy to get back on track during the 1930's. Due to the economy suffering severely from the great depression this plan was setup to help boast and get the economy going. Barack Obama's Stimulus Plan was also and aid brought out to save the economy. Due to the country facing the biggest economic crisis since the second world war, Obama and Democratic Party leaders suggested an economic stimulus package to confront the crisis.
President Eisenhower plan called the Interstate Highway Act, that would last for about 20 years. This plan gave those who traveled the road an opportunity to use a different route to get to their place of destination. During the year of 1953-1954, Eisenhower did a good job in managing the economy during the recession period. The way that he did this was by not allowing inflation and balancing the budget. I believe Eisenhower helped the economy when he increased the minimum wage, and social security benefits as well as the unemployment benefits.
Romney lost as freshman as unknown Politian, but that defeat experience made him better and stronger Politian to lead him to become the 70th Republican Governor of Massachusetts (2003-2007) the State always has been Democratic State.

The Bill was created to prevent a repeat of the Bonus March of 1932 and a relapse into the Great Depression after World War II ended. The American Legion (a veterans group) was essentially responsible for many of the Bill’s provisions. The Legion managed to have the bill apply to all who served in the armed services, including African Americans and women. The fact that the Bill paid for a G. I.’s entire education encouraged many universities across the country to expand enrollment. For example, the University of Michigan had fewer than 10,000 students prior to the war, but in 1948 its enrollment was well over 30,000.
This was the longest uninterrupted period of expansion since the government started keeping track in 1854.During this time fifteen million new jobs were created and just under twenty trillion dollars worth of good and services were produced. President Reagan inflated the DOD budget. He wanted the Americans to be ready for a war just in case if one ever happened. President Regan also had plains for what he called the “star Wars.” His Plain was to make some kind of shield that would protect us from nuclear missiles. President Reagan also deregulated the lending restrictions for savings and loans.
He accomplished this by reviving the B-1 bomber that carter canceled, starting production of the MX missile, and pushing NATO to push Pershing missiles in West Germany. He also increased defense spending by 40%, increased troop levels, as well as getting much needed space parts into the pipeline, all of that ensured that America remained a military super power. Lastly, Reagan’s greatest achievement that most likely ensured his second-term was his tax
ECON545: Project 2—Macroeconomic Analysis By Shawn M. Gilliam Professor Peterson 4/17/15 Looking at the decision of Melanin Car Manufacturing Company expanding their operations to meet the increasing demand from car manufacturers to produces parts for the auto industry.

Most Significant Events from World War II to Present Lena M. Ward HIS135 December 10, 2011 Karen N. Rogers This paper will look at the most significant events that occurred after World War II, from the 1950s to present day.

Ford Motor Company not only survived the financial crisis of 2008/2009, which had pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy, but also emerged as a robustly competitive member of the world’s leading auto producers. However, Ford’s ability to sustain its strong financial performance depends critically on the state of the world’s automobile industry (Grant).

Trevor Chattin ENG-112 Mrs. Kurtz Modern Prohibition: The Drinking Age Debate In 1984, a bill was proposed to the U.S. congress to raise the national legal drinking age to 21 from 18 years old. The bill was proposed due to the high rates of drunk-driving incidents during the time period. The ideas of promoting responsibility and safety into young American adults were among the most popular pushes behind the legislation. Not only was this bill proposed, but it was passed through congress and is now a nation-wide law. The 21-and-over drinking laws have actually made for a more dangerous environment for American teenagers by prompting them to do their drinking in private, unsupervised environments.
