One reason the United States should have imperialized is because of the economic benefits. On the other hand, a second reason the United states should have imperialized is due to them expanding to other territories didn't gain power over the U.S. . This is important because these two reasons lead to the U.S. being the top superpower country at that time and still is today.

One reason why the United States should have imperialized is because if they hadn't then the U.S would have not expanded and increase in value. Another perspective if they hadn't done it then America would not be that they are right now.-Zeus

The us should not have imperialized because they took control of many countries, drained them out of their recourses and brought war to any countries that tried to fight back

The U.S shouldn't imperialise because they exploited workers, used cheap labor, and caused conflict to other regions.

The U.S shouldn't imperialize because that would cause the destruction of different cultures. Which makes the countries suffer. And if that happens then that would cause problems between the countires

Should the United States have imperialism no because the United States were destroying local cultures and religions

They shouldn’t because they are just going to destroy more and more cultures and beliefs make people change their religions and cultures because they would think they are better.

The U.S. shouldn't be imperialism because it can affect other states but can be successful in bringing economic benefits. Another case is that Imperialism can destroy other cultures, and feel more powerful than other people or cities. In another case, they can spread the culture but will need forcing to others.

One reason the United States should have imperialised because it would have been for their own protection and to prevent many problems with enemies , especially if expansion wasnt a factor it would have been a benefit for enemy countries and the U.S would be losing a lot . - Aaliyah Yah

One reason the United States should NOT have imperialized is due to the land that was stolen/colonized from other nations and another reason is because the exploitive and cheap labor put upon the workers. These reasons are important because it shows the unfair and improper conditions and actions that imperialism cause.

1. One reason the U.S. should not have imperialized because they would Americanize local cultures. Another reason why they shouldn't imperialize is because they would force people to know their religion which is Christianity. Another reason is that the U.S. would want to get an advantage over other countries that they can just take over. Gabriel Rodriguez

One reason the United States should have not imperialized is that they would take control of other people's territories. One of the posters said the American culture destroyed local culture. America destroying other people's territories made other countries think highly of themselves like Europeans because they had more land than anyone did because of the U.S took territories.

The U.S. should have imperialized because it lead to an economic boom and improved the military / navy. The U.S. would not be where it is today without an aggressive expansion.

Another perspective on this issue is that imperialism was not beneficial because America took away the right to people's governments. America had a disregard for sovereignty and selfishly stole resources for their benefit and wealth. -Freda Largo

The United States should have NOT imperialized despite the said benefits. Imperialism led to exploitation of many sorts and discrimination against immigrants. They took (resources) from vulnerable countries like the Philippines and all of Central America even having the excuse of spreading religion to places like Africa to implement even more imperialism. -MJ.

One reason the United States should not have imperializes is because American cultures were destroying local cultures, making them American. On the other hand, a second reason the United States should not have imperialized is due to U.S being controlling over different territories. Another perspective on this issue is that imperializing couldn't been beneficial because the U.S caused conflict that caused suffering in different religions.

One of the reasons the United States should not have imperialized is because of the negative influence it had on indigenous peoples. They faced consequences such as lack of respect for their culture and traditions. The United States did not consider or respect indigenous peoples. After reading the different posters I was able to learn about how the United States did not value or consider the culture of the people, specifically the indigenous culture. This shows how the United States took advantage of any opportunity that could benefit them, regardless of how it affected others, just to expand and gain more power. That was what the United States wanted in general: greater political power. This raises the second reason why the United States should not have imperialized. The United States was invading other territories and taking them over without a doubt, as long as they knew they were going to benefit from it. They wanted to grow the economy, they cared a lot about the power they had, so they targeted those who had the essentials/materials they needed to increase power. In the information we read in class, to expand they used violence and invaded other territories. This shows us how controlling and selfish America was. Therefore, these actions and many other things the United States did, show us how self-centered they were. While they knew they would benefit wisely from their actions, the United States accepted it.
