I agree with the points you make about how both substances can ruin a person's life, but prohibiton will not work. If people want to drink and do drugs, they are not going to not do it because the goverment told them to. They are going to it whether it's legal or not.

Prohibition will never work. It was a failure in the 1920's and obviously still does not work in this counrty. If people want to do drink and do drugs they are going to find a way to do them. Also, they can say they are not doing drugs but actually be doing them. THere are always ways that people can around prohibition. I don't get why the country even tries. I think it is a good thing they are trying to prohibit things that have bad effects on people, but it will never work. Making alcohol and drugs illegal will make want to do it more and rebel against the rules. I think that it is good the country is trying to stop it but I don't think it will ever work becasue people will be people and go against it.

I think the triangular trade route was good because it allowed us to have a better economy. By trading things like this, we bought things that we could not make or get in America. It was a good thing.

I think that we didn't know about all the things that can harm the enviroment back then, so we didnt take the precautions neeeded. Soon, we are going to be running out of things that we need.

I think that the US would be less strong because we depend on them alot. If we stopped relying on them, our country would go downhill and they would rise up.

Yes I think I would. The population, like you said was less and that means there would be more jobs and less competition for them. Overall, I think moving to the west would be good.

I think racism is also a big problem. I think that racism will always be present. We really can't stop it. People are going to think what they want to.

The progressive era was a very good time for us. It gave workers decent wages and hours and also gave us better food.

I agree. I don't get why the journalists did that. Did they want us to go to war? They should have not made up those things about the Spanish people. It was not necessary.

I think it is good that people started moving west. I think that people moving west let them have a new life and maybe get them off on the right foot.

This is very good. This means that more people have gotten jobs and can support themselves and their families better. YAY!

We are always helping people even if they didn't ask for our help. I think that we think that we always need to be the one to help everybody else.
