Answer 1

Answer: The ideal answer should include:



  • Tax cuts were central to President Reagans domestic agenda.


  • Reagans tax cuts disproportionately benefited the wealthiest Americans.


  • At the same time that Reagan pushed for steep tax cuts, he sought large increases in military spending.


  • To make up the deficit created by tax cuts and military spending, Reagan targeted social welfare programs designed to help the poor.


  • The assault on welfare had links to racial issues as well.



Answer 2

Answer: The ideal answer should include:



  • In January 1979, the Iranian people overthrew the longtime authoritarian government of Shah Reza Pahlavi.


  • Returning from exile in Iraq and then Paris, Rhuollah Khomeini created a popular theocracy.


  • The shah took his money and fled Iran. Several months later, President Carter allowed him to enter the United States to seek medical treatment for cancer.


  • The Iranians demanded the shahs extradition. The refusal of this demand led to the storming of the U.S. embassy.


  • Carter refused to give into Iranian pressure to return the shah in exchange for the embassy hostages.


  • A failed military rescue operation only made the situation worse.


  • Not until after the shahs death in 1980 did the two governments finally negotiate the hostages release in January 1981.
