Many students around the world don’t have enough any money and that’s why there is a large population of people in the United States that skip college and don’t get the chance to get a degree. This is not only because of tuition, it is also because they change their majors that they want to major in which would get them […]

Get help with your assignmentSocialism is like having perpetual energy, for you cannot discard it. Many say it is a free lifestyle, for everyone is equal. Socialism in the past has had a goal of giving anyone who is not capable of working the same freedoms as someone who is. Yes, free healthcare and higher education sounds great but many do not see the truth of what that would do to the United States. Being completely equal in any type of workforce would damage […]
At the end of World War II, the United States emerged as the dominant economic, political, and technological power of the world. Since then, the United States’ has sustained an almost unrivaled hegemon, and overseen the establishment of a new world political economic order centered around a democratic capitalist society. The postwar institutions it helped establish (the United Nations, IMF, and World Bank, amongst others) further entrenched a capitalist system into the global economy. A representative republic with strong democratic […]
When things go downhill, we as humans tend to find a reason for it or blame something for it and this is true when it comes to more important subjects like the economy. During presidential elections, constant bashing of free trade led people to blame it as the cause for unemployment and a poor economy. Douglas A. Irwin, in “The Truth About Traded”, argues that free trade shouldn’t be considered a fall guy for how “poorly” the U.S. is doing […]

The curse of the U.S. long summer break is the summer slide that the American youth experiences Although the system implemented now of a serious of breaks and schooling provide some benefit, there is greater benefit in the school system switching to year-round. The implementation of year-round schooling would be a great addition to education by serving to minimize academic loss, producing close relations between teacher and students, and it will aid with limiting the achievement gap. Summer slide, summer […]
Andrew Jackson was a unique president. When Jackson was twelve years old, he was captured by a British soldier during the Revolutionary War and was slashed by a sword above the eye which left a scar that stayed there for the rest of his life. He also fought in the War of 1812 in the Battle of New Orleans. With all of this experience, Jackson decided to run for office in the presidential election of 1824. Unfortunately, Jackson won the […]
In 1803 the Marbury vs Madison supreme court case had occurred and was led by Chief Justice John Marshall. This Chief decided the landmark case of William Marbury vs. James Madison and he also confirms the legal principle of judicial review. The long- term significance of the Marbury and Madison was that it separated the judicial branch from the executive branch.

The Great War for Empire, otherwise known as the Seven Years’ War or the French and Indian War, took place from 1756-1763. The war began when Great Britain declared war on France over the territories in North America. Both France and Great Britain claimed to have owned the Ohio county, however neither had done much to sustain those claims. In the meantime, Native Americans that were currently living there had their own claims to the territory. In the 1740s the […]

He said if the war requited what they lost, it would make the suffering less severe. He questions the purpose of the war and states that the United States is not going to benefit from the war. He did not want to be “deceived” by it and Quincy was a part of that time period and the thirty-four […]

Railroads were a very hot topic in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. With the help from the advancement in technology and the civil war, the federal government was allowed to speed along the process of improving transportation for transporting individuals as well as products at a faster and cheaper rate. In the late 1820’s the first railroad to take the tracks was a small steam locomotive on the Mohawk and Hudson Railroad. This train traveled a small distance from […]
If asked what the most important part of their morning is, there is a good chance your average adult will say their morning cup of coffee. In fact over 60% of Americans have at least one cup of coffee a day (Sherman). We may not think twice about where the coffee we consume comes from, but in reality the process of how coffee travels from where it is grown to the shelves of our stores is very complicated. This process […]

I chose to do research on poverty and hunger with farmers and citizens of villages in Ukraine. Poverty in Ukraine is a huge problem, as Ukraine is the second poorest country in Europe. The average income is 3,560 USD and sixty percent of the population falls below the poverty line. One third of the population lives in a rural area under extreme poverty conditions. The small size of land properties limits the productivity of farmers. Supply and demand are greatly […]
The French and Indian War was an extremely bloody conflict that is considered by some to be the very first world war. At the time, the British and the French had colonies and territories all over the world. As a result, these areas helped partake in a war that was halfway around the war. Most of this war was fought in North America. The French and British colonies were pitted against each other because each wanted the fertile farm lands […]
In 1622, the Powhatan Confederacy almost cleared out the battling Jamestown province. Resulting assaults propelled by Metacom against English settlements started a deliberate reaction from the New England Confederation. Utilizing Indian helpers and a burned earth approach, the pilgrims about annihilated the Narragansetts, Wampanoags, and Nipmucks in 1675-1676. A noteworthy Pueblo revolt additionally compromised Spanish-held New Mexico in 1680. Indians were moreover a key factor in the preeminent disputes among France, Spain, and England. In King William’s , Queen Anne’s […]
At the start of colonization, Virginia was one of the very first successful colonies that began to thrive after colonists successfully grew tobacco. After the successful colonization of Virginia, new settlements began to develop and, overtime, the disagreements between the colonies and the British helped unite the colonies, which made them more powerful. The Virginia Conventions were one of the meetings between representatives from each of the colonies that discussed the future relations with Britain. At one of the five […]
The American Revolution refers to the colonial revolt that occurred between 1765 and 1783. As a result of the revolution, the American Patriots, those that instigated the rebellion, resulted in the Thirteen Colonies gaining independence from Great Britain. This was after defeating the British during the American Revolutionary War. France’s role in the war was twofold. First they were allies with the Americans during the Revolutionary War. Second, they participated in the events leading up to the war. In the […]
Blake’s engraving “Europe supported by Africa and America” portrays Europe and their descendants as dependent on America and Africa because Europe could have not done the expansion of their dominion of the New World without the aid of the African and the Native people. Europe’s domination of the New World depended on Africa through chattel slavery as it served as “the engine that propelled Europe’s rise to global economic dominance,” according to Eric Williams, author of the book Capitalism and […]
The United States: the greatest country to ever exist in human history, was formed through a gruesome war with the most powerful entity known to man at the time, Great Britain. All Americans know about how the American Revolution birthed this great country, but many do not understand or even know about one of the major driving forces behind the cause of the American Revolution, resulting in the 13 British colonies breaking off from the crown. This driving force was […]
A realist is someone who approaches situations like the Rwandan Genocide with the only national interest in mind and has extremely narrow terms. If the wealth, territory, natural resources, and military of the nation is not influenced positively they refuse to get involved with other nations. A realist likes to keep the interest of their nation in mind, they tend to worry less about others and more about themselves. An example of a realist is John Quincy Adams. Adams believed […]
The topic I have chosen to expand my knowledge on is the Industrial Revolution. To me, the Industrial Revolution was a turning point in human history. It brought forth new growth and prosperity to the human race, but it also introduced new instruments of war. Throughout history, humans always take new tools, items, and techniques and improve them. This process will continue forever. The Industrial Revolution, however, was a major leap forward in many industries. The Industrial Revolution’s influence can […]

[…]
The Connection between American-style Slavery and American-style Freedom Many of Americas top defenders of freedom and liberty were slave owners. The ownership of human beings went entirely against everything the puritans believed in and were trying to build in this new land but, they still marched forward, disregarding the irony. The truth of the matter was that without slavery this nation would have never prospered. The connection between American-style slavery and American-style freedom is eerily ironic and it is so […]
When advocating for social justice, there is little more that stings than the remains of a broken promise. Four years ago, President Lyndon B. Johnson stood in front of our nation and declared an “unconditional” war on poverty in his State of the Union Address, saying, “Our objective is total victory” (Shore). Since then, the optimism surrounding this vow has faded. Economic and social conditions of central cities have declined, while their inner-ghetto areas have become zones of calamity. Black […]

Trump’s Border Wall Donald Trump’s presidency has many controversies surrounding it. Many of which stem from his want to build a wall between the United States and Mexico border. From his campaign trail, he promised a wall to keep immigrants out and has continued his stance on the matter. This has led to many issues from public opinion to financing and even caused the longest government shutdown in history. In this paper, I am going to discuss Trump’s vision of […]
