Which of these resulted from the success of mccarthyism? a. increased spending on the military b. the resignation of president truman c. the blacklisting of suspected communists d. decreases in immigration quotas for eastern europe

The correct answer is C. the blacklisting of suspected communists.

McCarthyism symbolizes Senator Joseph McCarthy's significant impact on America during the 1950's. His claims of knowing about communists in the State Department and Hollywood caused for an increased amount of paranoia in the US. Along with this, it resulted in hundreds of individuals going before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC).

This Congressional body called in individuals and questioned their ties to either communism or the Soviet Union. This resulted in people losing their jobs or being "blacklisted." This term means that these people would not be hired in their industry. This happened to ten Hollywood producers, directors, and actors. These individuals became known as the "Hollywood Ten."

 America is a nation of immigrants is more true.

Explanation:

  While it is true that there have always been people, and political forces that have opposed immigration to America, this has not prevented millions of people from immigrating to America at different times during history.

  In the eighteen and early twentieth centuries, millions of Europeans immigrated to America, mainly from Germany, Italy, Ireland, and Poland. They arrived in the ports of eastern cities like New York and Philadephia, and from there, settled all over the American Territory.

   In the second half of the twentieth century, millions of people from Latin America also immigrated to the U.S., mainly from Mexico and Cuba.
