June 2010: US History

<p>va/new eng one is ppl in new eng live longer…
“because of a better diet”
sparknotes said, in bold</p>

<p>i thought crane was about like american pride or whatever it was. cuz didn’t crane write tje red badge of courage which talks about the american rev?</p>

<p>Menlo Park was the first industrial research lab
and <a href=“http://www.answers.com/topic/theodore-dreiser[/url]”>http://www.answers.com/topic/theodore-dreiser&lt;/a&gt; read the last sentence</p>

<p>i’m pretty sure crane + dreiser were something about the economic/social problems, becuase i know that dreiser wrote about the poor (in how the other side lives)</p>

<p>Crane and Dresier were social problems on the streets</p>

<p>Yeah I put investments in industry for Hamilton… but idk if that’s right?</p>

<p>I put something about government investment in manufacturing for Hamilton? The wording of the answer was so weird, it made it sound almost socialist</p>

<p>are you sure the homestead was about “free men, free land…” because the homestead didn’t guarantee no slavery, right? for the oddest reason - i put the speculators.</p>

<p>also, i think the people who pop sov whatever was northern whigs, right?</p>

<p>ohh difference between afl and knights of labor was it?? something like that…</p>

<p>i put that they wanted the entire cdapitalism to change</p>

<p>i put the speculators for the homestead act, and democrats for the pop sov one because of stephen douglas and i put the capitalism for the AFL too</p>

<p>what about the first war when America gained international land?
constitution was based off of voltaire?
women in the 1890s worked mainly in…i put textiles</p>

<p>i put repay debts in the hamilton one
the others were very unlikely coz hamilton’s era didn’t concern anything about national investment to industry…</p>

<p>really? i said something about economics, not politics. is that rihgt??</p>

<p>For AFL and Knights of labor I put economics/politics</p>

<p>eng 1100, i don’t think so cuz the knights of labor people wudnt care too much about politics, all they want is $$ as well</p>

<p>I thought this was much harder than the APUSH multiple choice. Hopefully we’ll have a nice curve. Does anyone know past years’ curves?</p>

<ol>
<li>Hamilton very much so wanted investment in American industry.</li>
<li>Difference bewteen AFL and KoL was economics, not politics.</li>
</ol>

<p>for the crane and dreiser question, was the answer something along the lines of wrote directly on problems blablabla? i know you guys are saying social problems but I forgot if that was the same choice as the one that began with “wrote directly/frankly on…”</p>

<p>Well I remember that Knights of Labor was very idealistic and they wanted to reform society… so that’s why I thought they were into political stuff… and the AFL concentrated mainly on realistic econoimc goals.</p>

<p>Idk i could be wrong though.</p>

<p>popular sovereignty is douglass’s idea and he’s a dem…
the whigs were faded when the pop sov was on the table
instead they form north rep (lincoln)
so i guess i’m going with the south dem</p>

<p>I put that the Hamilton one was lower taxes…I know he favored industrialization and higher tariffs, so that along with lower taxes would cause domestic growth?</p>

<p>Were women mainly in the garment and textile industries, or were they mostly married?</p>

<p>What was SC’s main export by the beginning of the 1700s?</p>
