The One Child Policy Under the Chinese History In the early period after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Chairman Mao believed that a strong nation should have a large population. However, with the development of society, China suffered many problems causing from the large population. The one-child policy was adopted in 1979, in response to the growing population. In the essay “The Little Emperors”, Daniela Deane points out several negative effects of the one-child policy, such as the “millions of abortions, fewer girls and a generation of spoiled children”(65). However, Chinese history has effected people’s mind and habits, so the one-child policy is not the only reason that causes these problems; in other words, the one-child policy effectively reduce the Chinese population.
This act made important changes to the United States since the reform following the Great Depression. It made changes in the American financial regulatory environment that affect all federal financial regulatory agencies and almost every part of the nation's finance industries. Even though this may seem as a good thing for our country, many critics believe the reform act is not enough to prevent another financial crisis. I believe this reform act was a major achievement in a way. The economy has gotten better through the years and President Obama has come up with some very beneficial strategies that have helped this country get out of the recession that we were in.
The Tariff placed high taxes on imports leading to a decline in international trade. The United States held many loans with European countries that began to default. Reduction in international market spending in the US, coupled with the high tariffs placed on foreign countries led to unemployment abroad and foreign countries were forced to impose their own tariffs on other countries (Kelly, n.d.). The Great Depression was perhaps most devastating to the individual and family. The Depression was recorded to have decreased the marriage rate which helped lead to a decline in the birth rate.
16 Ways to Cut the Deficit As I read through the 16 Ways to Cut the Deficit many of the articles provided different ways to cut the national debt. In some cases there were good articles that had great supporting evidence to back up their plans on lower the national debt. On the other hand some of the articles provided statements that I felt did not have the best plan or evidence that could help lower the national debt. The two plans that I felt where the best to lower the national debt was first off the article that Maya MacGuineas wrote about putting off retirement. I believe that putting off retirement is a good thing since there are all new medicines and technology that allow for people to live longer healthier lives.
American's could afford cars for the first time and started going on mini-vacation, known as weekend trips. What later led to the 'Great Depression' was a return to the federal government over stepping its duty by raising Taxes and again adding restrictions on business. The short term causes of the Great depression were easy credit, industrial production fell and in 1929 the boom had finished. Although it was responsible for tariffs contributing to farming struggle, the staple industry and also the technological unemployment were long term causes, but it did result in higher unemployment, that made people more eager to get jobs so they went out of the city for employment. In my opinion, I think the key contributor was the First World War which created the perfect opportunity for America's businesses to maximise their profits as they supplied the Allies with food and munitions, they also took over markets that had previously been under Britain and Germany's control.
John majors government came into office after the downfall of Margret Thatcher, which ultimately created divisions within the party. Not only did the party suffer from the internal conflict but also faced the problems of the recession after the ‘Lawson boom’. In order to stabilise the economy he joined the ERM getting a good deal but ultimately resulting in ‘black Wednesday’ causing Major to raise interest rates to 15%. This was political suicide and he soon lost the support of the press we had once relied so much on to get re-elected in 1992. The housing market also plummeted leading to negative equity, which the majority of the working class could not afford resulting in the repossession of their houses combined with the drastic increase in unemployment Britain was in a mess.
China is getting better and better by the second. The infant mortality rate is decreasing, literacy and education increasing, life expectancy higher and basic necessities like food, water, and shelter more available. Many of the problems they had with population are starting to go away with some new restrictions the put up. Their population mass could create the big armies and armadas of china and turn them into a well oiled war machine are could hone the economic status of china probably both though. With China having all these major points they could be on the rise for the next superpower
The economy is considered to be very unstable at the current time, and it is the duty of the United States government to do everything in their power to once again stabilize the once booming economy for the sake of the entire country and its citizens. Current Unemployment Rate Currently unemployment rates in the United Sates are a less than desirable 7.9%. Although, this number has decreased by 2.1% from its peak in recent years, it is still believed that there is a long way to go. Prior to the recession unemployment rates fluctuated between 4% and 6% (www.bls.gov, 2012). This increase in the unemployment rate is having considerable impacts on the economy.
List a few reasons economists speculate could be the cause of the slump in productivity increasing presence in the work force of women and teens (had lower skills, less likely to take full time jobs),declining investment in new machinery, general shift of American economy from manufacturing to services B. Sharply rising oil prices in the 1970s also fed inflation, but its deepest roots lay in government policies of the 1960s—especially Lyndon Johnson’s insistence
This is added to costs for advanced health care. Many feel that this will increase taxes, even causing some to not work because of how much they will have to pay to social security, putting an even further gap between the working and the elderly. We are often left with the question, what about us when we become elderly? When we reach elderly age, the elderly population will almost be doubled, and the working taxpayer percentages will be lower due to infertility, who
