Answers

Ms. Sue
I don't know what your book says -- but here were my experiences:

McCarthyism

* ruined the careers of many fine actors and musicians who were banned because they were suspected of having Communist leanings

* caused school systems (and other employers) to require signed loyalty oaths from their employees

* wasted tax payers' money in witch hunts

* raised suspeicion about many people -- including the president.
