what factors caused the large budget surplus in 2001 to turn into a large deficit by 2006?


how is the national debt affected by deficit spending?

Answers

Answer:

large projected surpluses turned to large deficits. For fiscal years 2001 through 2008, the last full fiscal year before President Bush left office, the $3.5 trillion of surpluses that CBO had projected for these years turned into deficits of $2 trillion. [3] A look behind these numbers is revealing.

A government experiences a fiscal deficit when it spends more money than it takes in from taxes and other revenues excluding debt over some time period. This gap between income and spending is subsequently closed by government borrowing, increasing the national debt.

Coalition politics, in effect, has
tendency to grow in?
a) Bi-party System
b) Multi-party System
c) Single-party System
d) None of the above​

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Multi-party system.

Explanation:

In politics, a coalition is a temporary alliance of political parties, political groupings and parliamentary groups.   In many nations, parties form coalitions to form a stable government. This is necessary when - as is often the case in political systems with proportional representation - one party or parliamentary group alone does not have the absolute majority required to govern. Coalitions, however, do not necessarily have to have parliamentary majorities; minority governments based on coalitions are also common in some political systems.

The following primary sources are most likely to include opinions as well as

facts.

Facts - census dataFacts - property deedsopinion - personal letterFacts or opinion - photograph

Why is it important to know the facts?

Knowing the facts enables us to use higher-order thinking techniques and put other difficulties into context. If the information we have memorized is true and available, we can use it to put other circumstances in context; but, if we forget the information, we are unable to put new difficulties in context.

A fact is a claim that can be verified as true or false through experimentation, observation, or investigation. An opinion is a person's conviction, sentiment, or assessment of anything. It cannot be demonstrated because it is an opinion or value assessment. Facts can be used by a writer to back up their assertions.

An opinion is a declaration of a person's or group's views, feelings, or beliefs, whereas a fact is something that can be demonstrated to be true.
