unit 6 as. # 5 "is the US nosy?"

At the turn of the 20th century the United States grew rapidly in power. Trade is one of the main ways that we got so rich, but with trade comes alliances with other countries. Now America is concerned with other countries affairs. We Care! I believe that we should not get into other countries affairs unless they ask for help, even then we should decide if its fair. Because we are so effin powerful we need to think about how other countries feel about us. They either hate us because we are stupid rich americans or they want to be under our wing of democracy. In WWII we totally didnt care about what was going on until we were attacked. That was just shady, in that instance we needed to step in and crush hitler, but we totally waited until it became our problem.

Good argument about not getting involved unless other countries ask for help, but what if we help one country, and it angers another? Like in WWII the U.S. was aiding the Allies? We didn't send troops until Japan attacked us- not Hitler and the Germans.

Good post overall. Some small errors, but I like the content. 18/20 points
