Answer 1

d

Answer 2

A good essay will begin by mentioning how Jefferson reduced military spending as part of his effort to cut the size of government and how these reductions made it difficult for the United States to take a more aggressive stance. Students should be able to trace the economic issues underlying each region's attitude toward the British. Students should discuss how farmers in the West worried about British influence among the Native Americans, while residents of New England feared the economic consequences of clashing with Britain.
