I do agreee with you on that. If people want to hurt there bodies then the government should let them. But if it is legalized more and more people will do it which isnt good for the enviroments surroundings. There would have to be a limit and where or when to take part in drugs.
I agree with you...Marijuanua should never be legalized because if it was more and more people would do it. The people that might want to smoke marijuana but won't because they know it's illegal might smoke it now because people know they wouldnt get in trouble for it. Marijuana should still be illegal so more people dont get into it. Even though people will still smoke maijuana when it is illegal it is better off just to keep it illegal.
It was a great idea and their were many different things that were discovered during exploration. When explorers came to America they found gold, silver, and other precious stones. Explorers wanted to expand there knowledge of the world. Also wanted new land and a larger empire.
Children would work up to 19 hours a day with only an hour total break sometime. Children that worked in factories worked 12-14 hours and was very dangerous. Children were in many accidents and even got killed. All this was a problem until the factory act of 1833.
Child Labor in the Industrialization Era was very difficult for Children. They had to work long hours and didn't get paid a lot.

Yes the Industrialization Era was very difficult for young children. Children had to work long hours so they were very tired and had to operate heavy machinery. This was very dangerous for them because children got seriously injured. They also didnt get paid squat so they were treated very unfarily.
People didn't just migrate to the west but also immigrants came during the Industrialization Era. People were looking for jobs and America was the best place to get a job. Factories always needed workers and that why children worked. So immigrants also came in to work and that solved problems.
Lots of people migrated to the west when they found out there was gold. It was known as the California Gold Rush in the 1800's. Lots of people came to America once they heard of the value of gold. People went nuts over gold and even died.
Towards the end of the class I still agree with my exact hypothesis that America was very imperialistic during the Spanish-American War. They set out to take controll of other land. They showed they had great power and other countries would not start stuff. America became very strong in the Spanish- American War.
I agree with anyone who said racism will always be a factor in the world. Barack Obama didn't do anything about ending racism he just became the first black president. There are lots of people in the world that are very racists and show lots of discrimination. Racism will always be a factor and will never end.
I would leave everything and try to find new land. There is a lot of sacrifices that I would of had to make but I think it would of all paid off. It is like a new begining or a new life. You get a chance to start all over and make the best of it.
Thats how it is more today. A 100 years ago though we were out to show everyone that we were very imperialistic. We may be helping countries today but we are still entering their own country and doing things that we probably shouldnt be doing.
I 100% agree with you. Back then America wanted to get out to other countries and let them know they had great power and would'nt back dow to othr countries. Now America isn't trying to take control of mlre land but only to defend for good reasons.
Yes I also agree with you. During the Industrialization era Child labor was very dangerous for kids. They worked so hard and earned so little money. But now the economy is better than what it was so child labor is a lot more fair than what it was.
What led to the Spanish American War was the U.S. Maine exploding. Yellow Journalism said that there were mines that blew up the Maine. Yellow Journalism convinced America to go to war with Spain.
This led to the building of the Panama Canal. Taking over the carribean now thought that we should continue to build the canal. Roosevelt wanted to revitalize the navy.
According to the Spanish American War America was very Imperialistic.

The Spanish American War let other countries know that they weren’t afraid and would not back down.

I believe this trend will still be going on because people get paid for wages now, an they have good benefits. It's understandable how they were needed back then since there were few or no worker pretection laws. But now with the laws today why would we need them?
I am aginst the government putting limits on imigrants. So what I'm saying is I want them to come over and work. Especially if I have to work 60 hours a week now. I am just a child, I dont need to be working that much. So if immigrants come over and work I dont have to worry about working so many hours.
I disagree with you because as a child working 60 hours a week can be very tiring. Children working in factories can be very dangerous sometimes. Now that they would be working 60 hours a week they will be tired when operating machines. This could cause them to be seriously injured and get hurt. They could lose a finger or something. Now as a business owner how would you like that if a child got seriously injured and his/her family decided to sue you.
I agree with this because teachers have a good salary and can make a fine living. They have plenty of benefeits because they get the whole summer off just like students. Some teachers even are coaches for sports and that will increase their salary. So they have plenty of benefits already and dont need to worry
But this is the only way we can show business owners how we feel and to express our beliefs. If you bring in Pinkertons we will never be able to do that now. We are not over controlling business owners we are just sending a message through their head.
As a child I am against bringing in Pinkertons. I believe that workers have the right to go on strike or protest in what they believe. Pinkertons are just going to come in and destroy all beleifs of the workers. As a worker going on strike is the only way to get to business owners how we feel about the company, and now it is going to be all gone with the use of pinkertons.
I understand that most children need money for their families but what their getting paid is ridiculously low. You cant just make them do what you want them to do. Working in a factory is very dangerous for a child and can get seriously hurt. If they are going to work for you then you should deffinately pay them more.
I am for Obama's economic plan. What he should do is tax millionaires because thats what I think would be best for the economy. People that have lots of money would deffinately be able to afford it. By doing this would help people with not that much money and be best for the economy overall.
As a child I am deffinately for the Keating-Owen Bill. This will cut down on the hours that I will work. So there will be no long days of hard and tiring work, and then I will have a lot more free time. With the bill I will also be able to go back to school and get a good education. This can help me in the future to get a better job instead of working in a factory for the rest of my life.
I am against this because I am a child and the more immigrants than come and work means less work for me. I would be very happy if that happened because that would make my life a lot easier. I wouldnt be as tired and would have more free time. A lot of adults would disagree with me because they need work more than me. I am just a child and then i could go to school instead of working just about everyday.
Child Labor,
I think that we should get rid of the minimum wage. Having minimum wage is gettin rid of job growth and limilting children to go on to better things. Children are losing education if they could just go and get a regular job and earn 7.25 an hour. Children are the new begining and should be expanding their education to go on and get better jobs with better pay.
Child Labor,
I am 8 years old and I am for the 40 hour week. Before workers used to work 10 hours a day, so that was about 60 hours a week. 60 hours a week would be very tough on me. Working long hours like that would make me very tired. All or most children work in factories and some operate dangerous machinery. So working those long hours would be very dangerous for a child to operate machinery because they could get hurt. Only working 40 hour weeks would give children more time to play and have fun.
