I agree with you because my response relates to yours. I also agree because when he says how america went from 13 colonies to 50 states that shows they made progress and he says progress helps everyone , which is true because for example kids who start high school bad and end of going to college that shows they mad progress and improved.

I believe that progress does help everyone because if the world had not been through changes we as in black people would still not have the same rights as the white race. I also say that progress helps because today we would still be slaves and still would be owned by the whites. Progress also helps because it helps everyone economically, socially, and mentally. The text "Jefferson vs Hamilton" states that they would help the young America develop industry and promote business." This quote proves that they were not stopping when it came to making America better. I could connect this to today because some people that have had bad lives they try hard to change them. The text "The United States gains Spanish Florida" states that they found slaves trying to escape to Florida. This proves that those were some of the slaves that wanted a better life for themselves .I could connect this to history because slaves did not want to be there so they tried to do everything they could do to be free.

I dont think that progress helps everyone. I say this because everyone might not agree with the plan or action that might cause progress. For example in the article "An Overview of U.S. Westward Expansion" it said that while the U.S. was expanding westward it caused them to go to war with mexico because of a disagreement and i know that it caused a lot of casualties. and that caused a lot of lives lost, so people are taking losses. That the reason that  I dont think progress helps everyone

I think that progress helps everyone because that's the only way that you get good at completing things you get better at them you start to see progress in what you are doing I think that progress helped the untied states when they went through a dramatic change during the 19th century and they began to progress and change their styles. I agree with Andre because if the world did not progress we would still be in a war with our own race and the white race because of progress the world has come to be a better place
1. Andre how did you come up with that understanding on how progress helps everyone

the people that suffered were the slaves because they had no way of progressing as one because they had no intelligence to progress because they had no books and nothing to teach them and the ones who didn't suffer was the whites because they had the skills to crop and do things like walk freely and they could read and write without their hands being cut off because of touching a book

I believe that progress can help people make success because when people make progress they can make changes. I also believe that most people try to make changes because the world sometimes doesn't change and other people should try to make changes. I believe that most individuals wants to make progress because it means that they are on the road to success and they can get to where they need to go.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that progress helps everyone. I believe progress helps everyone because, take America for example. America was originally 13 colonies and now it has 50 states and America is one of the most powerful countries in the world. In the text "The expanding of American Republic and the war of 1812" it states that "the Louisiana Purchase of 1803 added a huge piece of new territory to the united states." The Louisiana purchase gave the united states  Arkansas,Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming. This not only gave America new land but more space to explore and find new resources for trade and development. Trading which is a part of America's progression.

I believe that  progress does help everyone because with out change black people would not have the same rights as the white man .I also believe that with out progress there would still be slave and white man would still have the most power! White people benefited from expansion by taking different land.

In the text ''The expanding american republic and the war of 1812''it states ''The U.. began to expand as settlers moved into new territory west of the Appalachian mountains.  I can connect to the source called " River High Way ", it stated that they had shallow boats for $100 each for families.  This is very important because it shows the progress is very important!

# data[].attributes.body
I believe progress does help everyone. I say that because without progress, who knows what the people would accomplish or get done. I can connect to the source called " River High Way ", it stated that they had shallow boats for $100 each for families. I say that's progress because with the amount of boats that were sold to families to travel and leave the land that they were in, they made a lot of of money selling boats. And that's progress being made because the people that was selling boats probably had no money and came up with a way to make money by selling shallow boats.

Yes I think progress helps everyone because Without progress people won't see how far they came. I agree with Tracy P. because as you see America was at first 13 colonies now has 50 states , that's a lot of progress

I agree with Andre because progress is like practice the more you do it the better at the task you get and if you already good at the task you can always get better at it. The people that benefited from expansion were the Americans they benefited because even though they took other people land and they were ruthless individuals they expanded to new land and purchased unused land. The feedback I have

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that progress helps everyone because if your're not progressing, then you are continuously doing the wrong thing and there needs to be change. I think the united states benefited in the expansion because more land was added due to the Lewis and Clark expedition.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that progress is helpful because the way the world is set up its important for the world to make great progress because without it the earth would be very unorganized, Plus it can really cause conflicts with the society and if there are conflicts we need progress to make it better. I agree with Cameron Mitchell because they made a progress on money to buy advanced use of protection during the war.

# data[].attributes.body
i believe progress helps everyone because if the united states didn't progress then the united states wouldn't have expanded at all. The Farmers benefited from expansion because they got more land and more places to farm on. In the source" the united states gains Spanish Florida" it states " They purchased Florida but they owed them 5 million$. This explains that we bought Florida to expand and gives our farmers more land.

I agree with Andre because because progress is like practicing because if you don't practice a skill then you wont be good at it and they progressed each time so even though when you progress you get better and better at what you do. so even though we were expanding the whites and the farmers where getting better at moving and using better soil.

I would give feedback to Chase rice because you never really explained how blacks progressed from where we was at.

Chase how did the united states help the native Americans . when they took land away from the native Americans.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that progress helps people,because if there was no progress in this world we will still be stuck where we started.I say that , because without progress we cant get anywhere in the future .Progress helped us blacks get ahead , and stronger in life.Like in the source i learned "settling the northwest" the progress in that was , they divided the towns in different ways. The united States states helped the native Americans , because they got land from the Spaniards.

# data[].attributes.body
I personally think that progress does not help everyone I think that progress only benefits one specific group for example The United States benefited from the Native American because they received land from the Spaniards and took advantage of them because they did not have advance weaponry. In the source The United States Gains Spanish Florida it states early 1800's slave tried to move North the slave owners were not pleased neither were the Native Americans because they were getting rich .1818 Andrew Jackson led to war vs Native American the U.S won the war Spain gave their territory to relieve their 5 million dollars debt.This proves that they took advantage on the Native Americans and taxed them so much that they could not pay back so they could obtain their new land .Although they did take their land this expanded the size of America and benefit of agriculture.

Progress certainly does help everyone because without progress at all we would still be living like cavemen. In 1803 the U.S. made some progress to building our nation so we can live like we are living today.

In 1803, the Louisiana Territory was a huge piece of undeveloped land on the western border of the United States. He bought the territory for 15 million dollars from Napoleon Bonaparte. This land purchase is considered the biggest land steal of all time. In the source Exploring the Louisiana Purchase it states, " President Jefferson feared that France would require Americans to pay heavy taxes to use the river for shipping and to export goods from the port of New Orleans."  All of the people living in America benefited from this purchase because it gave us more land to harvest and more space to progress our country.

I believe progress does help everyone because if we didn't have progress we would still be living like slaves and being treated wrong. White people benefited from expansion by taking different lands.

I agree with you  about  the point you made in the text ''History of Independence'' when you were talking about how slavery had to progress with tremendous years of hardship till the slave act was finally abolished by a certain man.

The feedback i'd give you is that you did a wonderful job with connecting all the way through slaves history and using specific details about how the act would be abolished when Abraham Lincoln finally came.

Why do you think Jefferson was such a hypocrite , and kept contradicting his own rules ?

I agree with the point of the Native Americans and African American slaves being the ones who were affected and suffered but I also feel as if the French benefited because they became allies with America and they got rid of the land that was costing them more money  to manage it then to actually just give it away. My question to you is if you were Napoleon Bonaparte would you have sold this land to the Americans at such a low price?

Progress helps people who to move forward, like Thomas Jefferson who plans to expand the united states to the west in 1803.

It also states that when the war ended, it was mainly because the British public grown tried of the 20 year war with France. the another source "Western Expansion" states that

Progress helps everybody if you have a progress that means you growing in errors you have. The United States was benefit from the expansion because they got new territory from The Louisiana Purchase. In the text " The Expanding American Republic and the War of 1812 " it states that The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 added a huge piece of new territory to the United States ". This benefits the United States by gaining more power and building the government even stronger then what it is. This makes Slaves suffer because they had new territories to go to and work on and they expanded. In the text " The Expanding American Republic and the War of 1812 " it states " In addition plantation slavery was expanded beyond the coastal areas of the southeast. This meant that huge numbers of slaves were forcibly moved to new territories.

Progress is something little as getting taller or losing weight but also it can be huge for people who have an idea of starting a business to being the best business in the world that's progress.Progress is when you move forward in the direction you wanna go in leading to success so i believe that progress helps everyone in their own way.Progress is talking another step to achieving your goals.

White Americans benefited from expansion, and Indians and African Americans suffered. The source " Americans embrace westward expansion" states white Americans saw expansion as a major opportunity, as it promised independence and success. The source " Americans embrace westward expansion" also states native Americans resisted american expansion, and plantation slavery was expanded beyond the coastal areas. This proves it benefited white Americans because they believed that expansion could give them better opportunity and a new life. This also proves it affected the Indians and African Americans because expansions pushed the Indians out of their territory, and slavery was expanded across the whole country.
In 1790 the fast growing population of the united states had reached 3.9 million. By 1820 the total U.S population had reached 9.6 million. Rapid population growth and western expansion caused a great deal of conflict. Native Americans resisted expansion and fought the wars in the 19 century. Plantation slavery was expanded, which meant huge numbers of slaves were forcibly moved to new territories.

I agree that progress helps everyone, socially, mentally, and economically. The text from discovery Ed Jefferson v. Hamilton states " the new nation should have a national mint to standardized currency.... to help the young america develop industry and promote business". This proves that progress helps everyone because as Hamilton stated the US. should have a national bank this means that by having a national bank will promote or help the progress of business which would help the country as a whole. The development of industry connects to the progress of everyone because  Industry is the production of goods where everyone can receive by exchanging the currency of the US.

rogress is when you are growing in something you do. Also progress did help everyone.

The people that benefited from the expansion is the people are the white people who moved into the expansion area. For example in the text" expanding american republic" it states " majority of white Americans saw western expansion as a major opportunity.

For example in the text" expanding American republic it states that " a huge number of slaves were forcibly moved to new territories.

In my opinion progress does not help everyone. I think progress does not help everyone because if people are work together as as group, company, ect. they are able to get stuff done faster as a whole but other people can be left behind. An example of this is "The President Cabinet." In this video it talks about how the president selected cabinet member to help him with his task of protecting the united states. The video "The President Cabinet" states "Cabinet's solve different matters." This shows different cabinet members do different thing and when they do those different task they make progress. This connect to the question about progress helping everyone because the progress they make effects the country as a whole and can either bring down the people around them which can doesn't help them move forward. In this process some people will be able to keep up with these decisions while other people will not benefit from it and will not be able to keep up which can cause them fail in the long run. The people that benefit from expansion were land owners. The people who did not benefit from it was native Americans.

Progress is making the next step in a forward direction. Progress is about moving forward, and in the right direction. Progress can and can't benefit everyone. It can benefit everyone by helping a group of people because they can proceed in the right direction. It can't benefit everyone because some people want to stay exactly where they are, and not make any progress at all.

The people who benefited from the expansion (the Louisiana Purchase)  was the United States. In the source "Exploring the Louisiana Purchase" the text states, " Jefferson’s purchase more than doubled the size of the United States and provided American settlers with fertile land and valuable resources." This quote shows how the United States expanded, and helped their new settlers come into America with new land and new sources. This also relates back to progress because it shows how America is moving into a new direction as they try to become a new dominant world power.

The people who didn't benefit from the Westward Expansion were the Native Americans. The Native Americans lost their land where they built their home, their hunting grounds, and part of their freedom, as they eventually were forced to move to reservations.

Progress is moving more steps into the right direction or the ultimate goal. Progress is not meant to help or benefit everyone because everyone doesn't have the same goal or want everyone to be benefited. That is why during the Expansion the people that had the positive effect was everybody in favor of Jefferson and his "agriculture based society" according to the source "changing direction of the country. The source also says Jefferson believed that using the Louisiana purchase to spread farms would help economically because of farmers independence. The people who suffered would be all the industrial workers because Jefferson didn't agree with all the factories and wanted people to have more Independence. The enslaved African Americans was the most who suffered because that meant more labor for cheap or no pay. Finally the last people who suffered was the American colonist. According to the source "The Louisiana Purchase" before Jefferson bought the land he feared that Napoleon would charge hefty taxes to the Americans for shipping goods on the Mississippi river. So Jefferson bought the land to solve the tax problem but was still in trouble because he added more debt to the nation.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with you in saying you think the Louisiana Purchase benefited everyone in america and like you said in the source "Exploring the Louisiana Purchase" Jefferson doubled the sized of america and provided settlers with fertile land and valuable resources

# data[].attributes.body
Progress is a synonym for innovation and can also be a synonym for expansion so yes progress helps everyone because without innovation people would still be doing the same prehistoric caveman like actions. People who benefited from expansions like the Louisiana Purchase were the U.S. The text "Exploring the Louisiana Purchase" states "President Jefferson feared that France would require Americans to pay heavy taxes to use the river for shipping and to export goods from the port of New Orleans.  Jefferson offered to buy the port of New Orleans from France. He was surprised when Napoleon offered the entire territory of 828,000 square miles for only $15 million. Jefferson’s purchase more than doubled the size of the United States and provided American settlers with fertile land and valuable resources." This shows that the United States grew from buying territory. This led to the Corps of Discovery voyage. The people who were affected were the Native American's because the Americans had now taken over their land and slaves who were forced to work on farmers plantations.
