The Affluent Society of the 1950s was an era that largely embraced conformity (fitting-in with the dominant culture); however, that was not universally true. Some writers, poets, and musicians known as [BLANK-1] flaunted the conformity of the 1950s. They were cynical about the commercialism and consumerism associated with capitalism, and they challenged traditional gender roles. They sought a deeper meaning to life by travelling the country, adopting elements of Eastern religions, and experimenting with drugs, sex, and art.

Ronald Reagan’s optimistic re-election campaign slogan in 1984 was [BLANK-1]. Reagan’s popularity was on the rise following low unemployment numbers, a brief improvement in the economy, and his ability to put a political spin on his social security austerity measures in order to take credit for strengthening a program beloved by most Americans. Reagan won re-election easily over Democrat Walter Mondale, winning 49 out of 50 states.

OPEC was principally responsible for [BLANK-1] in 1973, when the organization placed an oil embargo on the United States due to its support for Israel in the Yom Kippur War. The embargo had a nearly immediate effect, as the global cost of oil quadruped, gas shortages arose in the United States, and the U.S. economy tanked. The economic decline accelerated Americans’ disenchantment with the United States’ role in the world and the efficacy and quality of its leaders. In many ways, it helped lead to the American Malaise of the 1970s.

During WWI, many women in the United States filled administrative jobs in the War and Navy Departments. One such group were army telephone operators, known as [BLANK-1]. The gendered transition of these jobs freed more men to join combat units.

[BLANK-1] was a political cartoon that appeared in Puck in 1904, which satirized John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil monopoly. The cartoon featured Standard Oil as an anthropomorphized octopus with its tentacles around the media, the White House, Supreme Court, and Capitol Building. The message was clear – Rockefeller’s monopolistic firm was so big and so powerful that it was even controlling the government and the media.

President [BLANK-1]’s administration was typical of the pro-business Republican White House of the 1920s and would go down as one of the most corrupt in American history. This president promised a “Return to Normalcy” following WWI, kept the United States largely out of foreign affairs, and staffed federal regulatory agencies with anti-regulatory, pro-business conservatives (a policy that largely contributed to the Great Depression). He died in office of a heart attack, perhaps brought on by the notoriety of his numerous scandals, including the Teapot Dome Scandal, his reliance on corrupt friends from Ohio known as the Ohio Gang, and the revelation of his extramarital affair with Nan Britton.
