A rabbit's foot, in most English-speaking countries, is considered a sign of good luck when carried on or near the body.[1] Although the history of the "lucky" rabbit's foot is difficult to nail down, it is generally agrees that it became popular in America near the turn of the twentieth century. Of course, if the rabbit's foot is lucky, by extension, the converse is also true, and the absence of a rabbit's foot can bring an end to good fortunes.[2] Although it is not clear why, throughout the ages, people have had the experience that carrying various kinds of objects has seemed to bring them good luck (or in some cases bad luck). Perhaps the object is a reminder that tends to focus their thoughts and energy, and it is actually the focus that brings along the beneficial results (or deleterious results in the case of an object considered unlucky). In any case, objects like the rabbit's foot have enjoyed persistent popularity over the centuries.

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

in "people in peace, not profit and war" chrisholm uses inductive reasoning for her argument against defense spending by stating that the new administration, like most americans, wanted to invest in social objectives, so they must not want to prioritize defense spending. mr. nixon said "we can delay no longer in launching new approaches to the problem that beset them", but chrisholm points out that the programs were delayed anyways.
