<p>Mainstreet</p>

<p>OMG I GOT IT RIGHT WOOT WOOT! Guessing skills are awesome..! tHANKS MAN</p>

<p>the question was which was a critique of the 1920's.</p>

<p>I guessed Main Street as well. That was a random question.</p>

<p>odin i don't think the supply-side answer you have it right...i'm pretty sure it asks "all of the following are tenets of supply-side econ EXCEPT" and your answer, reducing taxes for the middle class, is DEFINITEly a part of SSE.</p>

<p>The answer was getting rid of taxing the lower class.</p>

<p>It's not my curve. It's the curve from the REAL book and the PR book. If you look at the numbers, my curve is exactly the same as MED's. I just skipped over the numbers that had the same score next to them. You have to look at the right column of my post too!</p>

<p>And as for etti, I'll trust the book CB puts out before silly Kaplan any day.</p>

<p>wasn't it an except question?</p>

<p>It was an except question. Wasn't the answer D (I think)... something about not cutting back programs for the poor? When Reagan used supply side economics, one of the steps was cutting out social programs.</p>

<p>yeah! that's what i was thinking kpm...all these other people are saying that the answer was cutting taxes for poor....well if it was an except question (which it was) that's NOT the case b/c reagan definitely DID want to cut taxes...and your answer makes more sense</p>

<p>Thebillsfan, when did I say I put taxes for middle class? I put deregulation of business which was wrong anyway, but yea.
And kpm, Im pretty sure the choice was worded as "cutting taxes for the poor" which is the correct answer. I believe that was choice D</p>

<p>okay, maybe YOU didn't put that, but cutting taxes for the poor WAS facet of SSE, and the question asked what WASN'T a facet. I think I put dereg of business as well.</p>

<p>O, is that what the question asked? Bad memory, sorry. Well lets hope we're both right. I honestly didn't remember much about SSE but deregulation of business just seemed wrong because didn't that lead to the depression in the 20s?</p>

<p>Yeah, I put choice D... whatever was included in that answer choice about positive benefits for the poor was obviously wrong.</p>

<p>The bills fan, the answer choice wasn't CUTTING taxes for the poor, it was getting rid of taxing the poor COMPLETELY- which is obviously wrong, and therefore correct. I am 100% positive.</p>

<p>And reagan did want to deregulate business- so that cannot be right.</p>

<p>Okay, I just asked my AP US teacher about the question: "What did the US perceive as the greatest threat immediately following WW2?". I gave him the choices of ICBM, army, and technology. He confirmed that the answer was technology. I think that should end the controversy.</p>

<p>i called collegeboard and they said the answer was army</p>

<p>haha... thats so funny etti.. asked my A.P. US teacher today to about that exact question - said answer was prob. technology</p>

<p>That still doesn't convince me, sorry.</p>
