Why did it prove difficult for Congress to close American military bases at the end of the Cold War with the former Soviet Union? Group of answer choices 1, Many members of Congress believed that the Cold War might begin again and that the military bases would be needed despite the pause in tensions with the former Soviet Union. 2. Since every military base was in some congressional member’s district, it proved impossible for Congress to decide to close any of them. 3.

There were a number of riots on military bases slated for closure, and Congress did not want to provoke further agitation from the armed forces.

in 1965, president johnson signed the voting rights act, which aimed to overcome legal barriers that prevented african americans from voting as it was guaranteed by the 15th amendment to the u.s. constitution.

explanation:  

stocks and bonds are the two main classes of assets investors use in their portfolios. stocks offer an ownership stake in a company, while bonds are akin to loans made to a company (a corporate bond) or other organization (like the u.s. treasury). in general, stocks are considered riskier and more volatile than bonds.

savings accounts are just money in a bank- they are insured by the fdic for up to 250,000.   very little risk

the average mutual fund holds hundreds of different securities, which means mutual fund shareholders gain important diversification at a low price. which means if one stock or bond drops it will have very little affect on the mutual fund - again very little risk
