Most people, when put under prohibition, will become desperate for the drugs once they are deprived of it and then they will use these drugs illegally. This in turn will increase the crime rate. This didn't work in the 1920s and it isn't working very well today, but that doesnt mean that there are good things about prohibition either. Alcohol and marijuana lead to bad choices made by the user and eventually death. So if using alcohol and marijuana alot is more important than life, then go ahead and use them.

I don't understand why people think it is okay today? How can you justify killing someone because of the color of their skin.

We were thinking, "What is the loss in this war?" but what we didn't realize is that we lost a possible ally in Spain with this war. No need to fight

Yes, Imperialism is us wanting to dominate them but the goods they provide are very valuable to us so why would we create conflict with them.

WW1 was a tough war to win and the casualties were very high. It's foolish of everyone in the world to continue to go to war. What is the gain? Death?

Yeah, eventually a world power like china will get fed up with us and attack. How do we defend ourselves with half the army posted around the world.

Migration was a huge part of the USA in our history and is partly the reason why we eventually got into the western half of the US

Imagine, you need to survive the fighting in the air and then land the plane with only 15 hours of training. The odds are definately not in your favor.

Trench warfare is one of the most brutal fighting tactics out there. Not just the fighting either, the living as well.

I am sooo glad we don't live in such bad times today. The Iraqi war is bad but think about a world war... Unbelievable.

The warfare was bad, yes but don't forget about the living conditions either. Trench foot and constant flooding of the trenches were awful

I would say the USS Maine was a great spark to a war that shouldn't have happened.
