What economic practice and had the greatest effect on the economy after World War II?
Answer:
U.S. war spending helped add $236 billion to the debt. It was a 1,048% increase, the largest percentage increase to the debt of any president.
A review of U.S. gross domestic product growth by year reveals that the economy grew at least 8% annually between 1939 and 1944. Between 1941 and 1943, it grew more than 17% a year.
One reason U.S. production grew so fast was that it had been slack during the Great Depression. Underutilized manufacturing, shipbuilding, and auto factories were able to gear up for full production.
To pay for it, the government expanded the income tax and introduced mandatory withholdings from paychecks. In 1939, 4 million Americans paid federal taxes. That rose to 43 million by 1945.
The war turned the United States into a major military power. Before the war started, the U.S. Army only had 174,000 troops. That was 19th in the world and smaller than Portugal's. Army Chief of Staff General George C. Marshall reorganized the army into a strong fighting force. In December 1941, it had grown to 1.8 million men. By 1945, it had 8.25 million.
In 1947, the Truman Doctrine pledged the United States to assist any democracy attacked by authoritarian forces.It shifted U.S. foreign policy from isolationist to the global policeman. The Marshall Plan pledged $12 billion in food, machinery, and foreign direct investment to rebuild Europe.The National Security Act consolidated the Army and Navy into the Defense Department. It created the Air Force, the National Security Council, and the CIA. In 1948, the United States airlifted food and fuel in West Berlin after the Soviets blockaded it.
In 1949, the Fair Deal called for national health insurance and raising the minimum wage. It also proposed the Fair Employment Practices Act to make illegal any religious and racial discrimination in hiring. Congress rejected national health insurance but passed the rest of the Fair Deal.
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 continued quotas for immigrants based upon country of origin. It had lower quotas for Asians, a vestige of the racism prevalent during the war. Between 1942 and 1945, the federal government relocated 117,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry into internment camps. The Act prioritized family reunification and desired skills.

Answer:
Grandfather.
Explanation:
The book "Grandfather's Journey" by Allen Say is a story about the author's grandfather who had come from Japan to America. The story focuses on how the grandfather and the narrator relate to one another about missing the place they used to call home, the faraway land they had been to.
In the case of the grandfather, his first home was in Japan but had gone to America. After returning to Japan, he got married and then moved to America once again. After several years, they came back to Japan but had to move to a city to comply with the desire of his daughter who had grown up in a big city and could not live in a small village.
Thus, even though the narrator is the grandson, the main protagonist of the story is the grandfather.

What is the Supreme Court?A supreme court is the highest court within the hierarchy of courts in most legal jurisdictions. Other descriptions for such courts include court of last resort, apex court, and high court of appeal. Broadly speaking, the decisions of a supreme court are not subject to further review by any other court.
Supreme courts typically function primarily as appellate courts, hearing appeals from decisions of lower trial courts, or intermediate-level appellate courts. However, not all highest courts are named as such. Civil law states tend not to have a single highest court. The idea of a supreme court owes much to the framers of the Constitution of the United States.
It was while debating the division of powers between the legislative and executive departments that delegates to the 1787 Constitutional Convention established the parameters for the national judiciary.

Why has the Supreme Court interpreted the Fourteenth Amendment to mean that provisions of the Bill of Rights apply to the states?
Answer:
The Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments. Often considered one of the most consequential amendments, it addresses citizenship rights and equal protection under the law and was proposed in response to issues related to former slaves following the American Civil War. The amendment was bitterly contested, particularly by the states of the defeated Confederacy, which were forced to ratify it in order to regain representation in Congress. The amendment, particularly its first section, is one of the most litigated parts of the Constitution, forming the basis for landmark Supreme Court decisions such as Brown v. Board of Education regarding racial segregation, Roe v. Wade regarding abortion, Bush v. Gore regarding the 2000 presidential election, and Obergefell v. Hodges regarding same-sex marriage. The amendment limits the actions of all state and local officials, and also those acting on behalf of such officials.
