The government used a controversial bailout program to help automakers on the verge of collapse.


The Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) extended loans to help save the American automotive industry during an economic crisis in 2009. However, the program was controversial because some felt that TARP was a bailout for businesses that deserved to fail, in other words, help was going to those who caused the crisis.

In a paragraph of 3–5 sentences, explain how Reagan was able to avoid direct blame for the Iran-Contra affair?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The Iran-Contra affair was one of the biggest political scandals of American politics in the 1980s. It erupted in November 1986 when it came to light that then-President Ronald Reagan and several leading members of his administration were involved in the clandestine sale of arms to Iran, which was then subject to an arms embargo. Their plan was to improve relations with Iran, which was to lead to the release of six American hostages held by the Lebanese group Hezbollah. The plan soon turned into a hostage trade, and part of the proceeds were to be diverted to fund the Contras group, an anti-communist guerrilla in Nicaragua. Although Reagan was a supporter of the Contra, due to the mystery that still surrounds the case, there is currently no solid evidence that he approved the funding.

Reagan admitted in a televised address that the sale of weapons had taken place, denying the hostage trade. Several commissions of inquiry were set up, but found no direct connection, as Reagan's aides destroyed or concealed a large number of documents.
