The United States of America, a country that used fight for the small guy, that used fight to protect the people that needed to be saved. Yet now we can barely save ourselves from a water balloon fight. This country got caught up in the small thing .We are fighting ourselves about bathroom rules, being democrat or a republican. Recently people are making a deal about the pledge of allegiance some people who don 't believe in a religion or have a different region than most people in this country. As a Kant deontologist I would say that we need to remove those worlds from the pledge of allegiances for the greater good. Kant would say if every one is not on abroad with the same idea. So the best thing we can do is while doing the pledge of allegiance to pay our respect for the people who died and who are fighting for this country. If you do not want to say just keep quite during that part. Yet this is such a first world problem. You would not care if you were in a third world country. If you were stuck in that situation you would be fight how to feed your kids and not fighting about three words that do mean anything. People who fighting about this should be fight for better equity for every body in this country. In Kant words we are using other people as mirrors me instead of other humans. We are trying to be the center of the universal when we are not. We have seen so many people write facebook rants that are basically novels. Do you actually think that would change
The Southern States of America was made up of the following, Georgia with Atlanta as the Capital of the new union, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Louisiana, Tennessee and Kentucky. Although, Kentucky wasn’t a sure bet at this point, there was still a lot of work to do in that state.
Following numerous events in the 1850’s and early 1860’s, eleven of the southern states of the United States of America would make a fateful decision to succeed from the Nation. They would in turn create their own independent country, the Confederate States of America. This action and its ramifications echoed throughout the world during the Era and the effects are still felt today. A civil war would ensue, lasting from April of 1861 until May of 1865. During this conflict approximately 700,000 people would lose their lives and the end would come with the Confederate States of America surrendering at Appomattox Courthouse.
The basic explanation of what this compromise was, is basically a package of 5 different bills that the United states Congress passed in 1850. That is not all though, for it is rather more complicated than just being 5 different bills. to further understand the compromise, you need to think back to the slave and free states of our country at this time.
The 113th Congress has been considered as the worst congress in the history of the United States. The highly polarized institution showed its inefficiency when dealing with the fiscal budget. By failing to pass a new budget, the American government shutdown for a couple of weeks. One of the leading causes of disagreement between the two parties was the extension of the debt ceiling limitation. The government is accruing more and more debt every year, and not passing a budget could eventually lead to a default on American loans. Although the 113th congress resolved their issues during the 16 days of shutdown, they ultimately postponed the battle till the next year. In my paper, I will explain the background of S.540, the Temporary Debt Limit Extension Act, who introduced it and how each party opposed each other on this bill. This bill went through a yearlong journey starting in the Senate and ending on the president’s desk. I will then conclude by evaluating the proposed bill and explain why it was signed and enacted as a law.
The journey of how the United States of America became the United States of America is a very complex one. With America declaring separation from the Great English Empire, to the organization of becoming a free, sovereign nation and lastly, the migration and colonization of the now, western United States, including the great state of Nevada, has many components. The Declaration of Independence initiated the process of becoming a country of its own. This Document pushed the separation from England and showed the world that America was now its own nation. The United States Constitution laid out the blue print of how the United States would work. This was after a failed attempt of the Articles of Confederation. After the Constitution was created, the process of migrating west began in order to colonize the western region of the United States. Nevada had a big role in this because we helped President Abraham Lincoln gain a second term. The first chapters of the story of the Untied States of America were a dangerous, difficult and long one, but because of this, the people that live in this country today have the freedom of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
The entrance of the United States of America into the First World War in 1917 on the sides of the allies impacted the outcome of the Great War by tilting the strategic military balance in favor for the allies and against the Central Powers. The Central Powers, made up of the German Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Austria-Hungarian Empire, were fighting to preserve their empires in light of geopolitical shifts occurring at the time. The US entered the war partially to restore Global Peace and also to vanquish the German Empire, which had antagonized the US by seeking to form a hostile military alliance with Mexico to the detriment of American national interests (Doyle 1160).
This country, The United States of America is built on greed. This magnificent age of technology fuels the want for more. Boundless borders, created by leaders, rule over all and their authority remains unquestioned by a malicious spear of death for whoever obstructs their path. The people of America have been blindly enslaved and indoctrinated in fright of consequence. But life was not always so. People were once free to roam the lands, feeding and learning from its riches at no cost. Mothers and fathers were the sole teachers and their children followed freely and faithfully. Desecration of simplistic ways came as man proclaimed a price on things and ideas he sought necessary through fear and suffrage. These same ideas hold the
During the 1800s, the United States of America underwent some drastic changes. President Jefferson introduced a simple idea of expansion with the Louisiana Purchase and the Lewis and Clark Expedition; President Madison allowed the country to slip into the war of 1812 after complications with the impressment of American seaman by British navy in the Great War during Jefferson’s time. After the war, an “Era of Good Feelings” promoted national unity and Marshall’s supreme court decided many cases that promoted power of the national government over the states. The Monroe Doctrine told European powers that they must not interfere with events in the Western Hemisphere, and the creation of the national bank also took place during this time.
The intention of colleges in the United Stated during the 18th and 19th centuries was to create a system that would serve in loco parentis (in place of the parent). In the early years of American higher education, college professors sought to be disciplinarians, who played a parental role. However, the students at these institutions often behaved in a disruptive manner towards teachers, as well as fellow students. This unruly behavior can be directly linked to the economic background of the students attending these institutions, in addition to the philosophies set forth by the colleges. During this time period, colleges attracted mostly upper class men who showed little interest in their academic studies. They were individuals following generations of family members to the institution, and as a result of their connections possessed more authority at the school than the faculty. This issue began to change in the early 20th century, when colleges began admitting more economically diverse individuals. The economic background of the students, in addition to their reluctance to abide by the rules, led to violent and unruly behavior at these institutions.

At the beginning of the 18th century, the United States of America was beginning its long journey to becoming a nation. Free from the British Empire the United States started a government for and by the people something lacking previously. As George Washington was sworn into office his wife, Marsha Washington also took on new responsibilities. The Republican court was formed as a unifying tool. Held in the center of the country at the time, Philadelphia, it served as a way for people to converse about various topics. For Marsha Washington it became a social gathering. Described by Abigail Adams as “Too bibulous (two quarter casks of wine and spirits drained), too ravenous (200 pounds of cake gobbled), and too loud.” AS Washington’s term came to an end, John Adams was voted. Abigail Adams came to take over the Republican Court. She came to reform and modernize the conversation and status of the court. With experiences in European courts, thanks to her husband’s political ambassador experiences, she saw the European court ceremonies of dress, conversation and overall prestige with the courts. The Early Republican Court became a symbol and a tool for women to display their political knowledge.
The United States of America was founded in the right place, at the right time, for the right reasons. Our uniqueness, freedom, creativity, and strength all stem from being the first country born to debate. But there were multiple lucky circumstances that allowed us to do this. Perhaps so fortuitous that if some of these things never occurred, America may have not been founded like it was today. We were founded in the right place because the land where the colonies had settled were bereft of gold, which resulted in a long term "light" administrative hand from the British. The colonies were afterthoughts to them (they had been for over 180 years), and when the "grip tightened", as a result on the tax of tea, a revolution occurred. We were founded in the right time because people were getting smarter. Top-down authority was fading, King James I declaring that he ruled by divine right was a testament to this, and people wanted their voice to be heard in the expression of religion. And we were founded for the right reasons because for the first time, men thought that the free mind and soul of a Man was the answer to explaining the world and rule of it, not a crown. The practice of argument and debate allows the American people to exercise their right of free speech under the constitution, a right that this country has shed blood over to protect, and allows our voices to translate into useful ideas as
Recently emerging as a significant trend amongst the health-conscious community, quinoa has become a symbol of healthy and organic living across America. Due to this sudden rise in demand, this Bolivian superfood has been hitting the shelves of stores around the country faster than ever. This journey to American supermarket shelves is one that has recently come under scrutiny for its effects on the environment and the Bolivian farmers who grow and harvest it. In this paper, I will discuss the details of the importation of quinoa from Bolivia, the impact this grain has had on the natives of Bolivia and the environment as a whole, and the symbolic and material value this grain possesses in the everyday culture of the United States.
