haha. the indednt buttons make no sense.
Conservation:
- scientists became more eco-aware
- previously no one cared - just wanted the resources
- sequoya national park
- pres harrison issued presdential proclamation. created national forest system. Yellowstone in Wyoming.
Monopolies:
- sherman anti-trust act broke up big monopolies like standard oil.
- limited the amount of power large companies could obtain.
- clayton anti-trust strengthened the sherman act. both are still in use today.
- Interstate commerce commity
Aid organizatgion-
the depression in the 90's wqas worse- union of workers and famers joined together
,,,,,they missed the mark on this one
Taxation adn Banking-
pres wilson lowered tarrifs to curb the power of large businesses
senate cut tarriff more than the house
(tarriffs put a tax on income goods, thus making the american goods cheaper so people would buy those instead. tarriffs benefitted big businesses and monopolies. not so great for the common people)
ranged from 1% to 6%.
(graduated income tax-the more that goes in, more that comes out.)
pres wilson used the bully pulpit
income tax provided more revenue for the federal government than tarriffs ever did
bravo, chaps.
although it needed some pictures.
ten minutes left. our turn so im posting this.
just kidding. someone else volunteered to go before us.
not that we werent ready. its just that bruns said "you guys are up" and we didnt know who he was talking to, so we didnt do anything, and the other group volunteered a second time. so we'll go tomorrow.
odd video for their group. interesting though.
