The reasons this occurs is due to numerous factors like the number of companies going out of business, lack of job growth, future plans for job growth does not meet the need, founding father’s not allowing large business to come to town, education level of community, sales tax is high, and average household income is low. Another reason for the high unemployment rates in Mohave County is that there are some very rural areas and job availability is low. Some people actually make more living off the unemployment benefits then they would get paid at a minimum wage job. “Unemployment benefits range from $60 to $240 per week depending on a person’s previous income” (Pelham, 2011). “The average job growth is 1.46% lower than the Nation’s average.
Their lack in technology advancements help them back from growing their population to a greater number. So much work had to go into harvesting their crops and they were unable to store things for a long period of time. Their daily work of harvesting food was all they had time for, it's how they were able to survive. Jared says' "Highland agriculture was based on crops like these taro roots, which are very different from cereal crops. Taro is much more work.
The land they had been given to cultivate was nowhere near a fertile and yielded fewer crops. In order to have enough crops to feed and support their families, farmers needed larger farms. The dry climate also increased to the possibility of fires. Often, fires would start and destroy entire crops leaving the families with absolutely nothing. If fires and drought were not enough, insects also joined the proverbial party of doom.
ii. The “virtuous cycle” in Ethiopia is challenged by global trade laws due to the lack of money. The people of Ethiopia continue to suffer every year because of unfair trade prices, receiving only pocket change for a bulk of their most wanted coffee. Because of their lack of money, the
Many factors caused the economic condition in America to change in the late 1920’s resulting in the Great Depression. These factors include World War One, individual debt, business failure, farming decline, banking failure, and the stock market crash. World Depression was caused by World War one because the demand for American products reduced after the war resulting in too much supply with limited demand. Production was lowered and jobs had to be cut, leaving many without jobs leaving many in debt because many people took out loans or stocks during the war. Many people did not have money to spend in businesses and businesses also took out loans that needed to be paid back.
When a country's population increases, more land is taken out of agricultural production and converted into housing. This creates a problem because the country will now have to increase their imports to make up for that which they used to produce themselves. As of now 25% of children in China already don’t have enough food. This lack of food is
A lot of people will go to food banks even when they don’t need to because if people can get free food, they will. “Benefit levels can be substantial, far more than they might earn, so it’s a rational choice to stay on benefits, and to get the free food.”(Ewina Currie). Once people reap the benefits of food banks, they will stay on because they can, even after they get out of poverty. Food banks rarely have the resources to visit people at their homes, but if they did, they would find that many people living the opposite of a life in poverty. When people do this, they take food away from people who really need it.
In the early 1890’s farmers, ranchers and other country folk started having huge issues. They were growing more crop supply than what was demanded by population. These farmers and ranchers would try to sell their food and they would not make enough because there were only so many people, and a whole lot more farms. The farmers and ranchers would end up needing to borrow. The only other option was to find specialized loans so they could
The expansion of U.S agriculture that had taken place during the war time efforts led to overproduction and as a result there was too much food available in the US market. This made it increasingly difficult for farmers to sell their produce and many struggled to keep their farms running. With huge quantities of produce and little profit to be made from the selling of it farmers increased their spending in the hopes of producing more crops to sell, so they could make more profits. However this plan backfired on many farmers and they plummeted into huge debts that many couldn't afford to repay and as a result
One of the biggest roles that played a part in the growth was the expansion of agriculture. The towns were beginning to become too crowded for families to be able to grow their own crops. They relied on travelers to come into town on certain days of the week to set up shops to sell fruits, vegetables, and also some meat. There were a few shops that would stay open everyday, but most would only come and set up one or two days in a week. Most travelers were peasants who would grow extra crops on their
