Answer 1

They're both a.
1. The problem was that the reconstruction governments and programs were causing huge amounts of debt for the southern states and the governments were HUGELY misspending money.

2. Alot of the government officials were either "carpetbaggers," who were northerners who came down to the south to earn a quick buck, or "scalawags," which were the same, but from the south already. When they got into politics they'd basically do anything for money (ex: accepting bribes, putting tax money into their own pockets, etc.).

Answer 2

1-A
2-C
good luck!!
