Answer: The response by Taskmasters lists the seven events accurately:
1. overconfidence in the nation's prosperity
2. farmers producing more than they could sell
3. large industries not as successful as they appeared
4. people buying too much on credit
5. competition from foreign countries
6. speculative buying on the stock market
7. United States extending loans to foreign countries for the purchase of its products

Allow me to provide some context/explanation regarding especially item #6 - "speculative buying on the stock market."  In the 1920s, people were so eager to invest and earn profits through the stock market that they bought stocks "on margin."  In other words, they paid for only a marginal percentage of the stocks with their own funds, and borrowed bank funds for the rest of the purchase.  By the late 1920s, 90% of the purchase price of stocks was being made with borrowed money.  This inflated the market in a way that spiraled out of control, and in 1929 the market crashed.

As to item #7, that also had something to do with spreading the Depression worldwide.  After the Great War (World War I), Germany was required to pay heavy reparations payments to Britain and France.  Meanwhile, Britain and France owed repayment of funds to the United States for borrowing they had done during the war.  So the United States had been supporting Germany in the 1920s with loans.  When the USA could no longer afford to extend loan monies to Germany after the market crash of 1929, that sent Germany's economy spiraling even deeper into the Depression than was felt in the United States.

How did the War Powers Act of 1973 impact the role of the president?

Answers

Answer: The act placed a limit on the president's ability to send troops into hostile areas.

Context/detail:

Passed in 1973 over the veto of President Richard Nixon, the War Powers Resolution (its official name) blocks presidents from continuing the pursuance of a war without Congress's approval.  In practice, however, the War Powers Act has often been sidestepped by presidents.  The US Constitution leaves some tension in place between the legislative and executive branch when it comes to the country's involvement in war.  Article I of the Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war.  But Article II names the President the Commander-in-Chief, and presidents frequently have understood that role as containing the authority to deploy US forces without first getting congressional approval.  The War Powers Act has been an ongoing point of controversy as US forces have been sent into all sorts of conflict zones in the 21st century without formal declarations of war.

The war powers act of 1973 came into place as a result of the actions of LBJ in the Vietnam war, he had been very secretive about how many troops he ordered and how he was conducting the war.  The War powers act of 1973 stated that the president was required to inform congress on war policies/strategies, and the president could not send troops to a foreign power for more than 60 days without declaration of war by Congress.  It was vetoed by president Nixon, but congress passed it over his veto.  This law impacted the role of the president by limiting his/her power when it comes to war.  Today, it essentially acts as another "check" in the system of checks and balances by making sure that the Executive branch (president) does't have too much power over foreign policy.  Hope this helps!

Eskom is not a profitable company recently because the construction of their new power plant led them to not get profit from it for the next years because of the billions of revenue it cannot shoulder. The expenses are just way too big to equal or surpass the projected profit they have.
