Christian Boujaoude September 12, 2014 AP Economics Wolff Pd. 3 Study Questions #?s 2-4 2. Economic resources are the natural, human, and manufactured inputs used to produce goods and services. Economic resources fall into four main categories: labor, land, real capital and entrepreneurs. Economic resources are also called factors of production because they are used to produce goods and services. If resources were unlimited and freely available, many of our current choices would be unnecessary. Every person could have as much as they wanted of any good or service, rendering economics, the science of choice, largely unnecessary.

Industrialization and the Condition of Labor In 1873 a major, economic depression of the U.S. monetary system, was started due to a financial panic. Four years later, about one million people were unemployed, business growth was stagnant, and working people were growing anxious. In 1877, many of the railroads issued wage cuts and layoffs, which prompted railroad workers to go on a paralyzing strike. Due to this strike a lot of people died, businesses suffered losses of millions of dollars in destroyed property, leaving citizens stunned at the class warfare they had witnessed. At this time, in American history I personally do not believe things could get worse for the American people.

Canada-Latin America relations

In Latin America, much of the 20th century witnessed a struggle between the forces of revolution and reaction. The focus of this chapter and the next is on third world nations, which display great diversity and cultural emphasis. In the second half of the 20th century, Latin America took an intermediate position between the nations of the north Atlantic and those of Africa and Asia. Investments often came from the West and Latin America was vulnerable to the world financial system. The US constantly intervened with Latin American issues such as economically, politically, strategically, and ideologically.

Employment is a major contributor to wealth accumulation. ?We?ve seen a game change in blacks getting white collar jobs,? says Tom Shapiro, director of the Institute on Assets and Social Policy at the Heller School at Brandeis University. ?The African-American middle class is no longer coming out of a service industry serving only the black community,? he says. These advancements are underplayed. However, the wealth gap between whites and African-Americans has tripled since 1984. Shapiro?s research estimates the wealth gap for median white households compared to black households grew from $85,000 in 1984 to $236,500 in 2009.
