Question

Which factor contributed most to the situation shown in the cartoon?

unregulated banks
creation of a national bank
low tarifs
shortages of consumer goods

Answer 1

unregulated banks

Step-by-step explanation:

From the cartoon used, a squirrel asks a despondent man sitting on a bench why he didn't save money for the future while times were good. The man sat with his chin in his hands with a tag "Victim of bank failure".

Therefore, the factor that contributed most to the situation shown in the cartoon is unregulated banks which led to their collapse/failure.
