Answer:

President Roosevelt's foreign policy was called "big stick" diplomacy.

Explanation:

The Big Stick refers to the style of diplomacy used by President Theodore Roosevelt, as a corollary of the Monroe Doctrine, according to which the United States should exercise its foreign policy as a way of stopping European interventions in the American continent. In this way the US would take the lead within the continent.

The intentions of this diplomacy were to protect the economic interests of the United States in Latin America. The ideology of the Big Stick led to the expansion of the United States Navy and to greater involvement of the United States in international affairs. All this has led to "dollar diplomacy," which followed the Roosevelt administration and may be seen as a late version of "gunboat diplomacy."

In this ideological and economic context, the construction of the Nicaragua Canal and the Panama Canal was planned, two works of enormous size that would facilitate the displacement of American goods to Central America.

Would the U.S government be better if it were a more direct democracy?

blagie [28]

Answer:

I don't know...call me crazy, but I don't think this would be such a bad idea (at least sometime in the future.) With the advent of the internet, there really is no reason why people can't have more input on legislation. Remember, congressmen act as representatives of the people for logistical reasons. Were voting allowed via internet, mail, or permanent polling places, the logistical roadblocks are reduced.

This country has an annoying quality where senators and representatives are elected and then inject their own personality into their voting. They are supposed to represent the people of their district. If 60% of the people in their district feel a certain way about an issue, why is the congressman/woman allowed to vote a different way? Why do their personal beliefs really matter at all? They are supposed to be voting the way their district wants regardless of what they personally believe.

I know, I know, things can be horribly complicated and the average person can't possibly understand all the issues they are voting on, but last I checked their is no intelligence requirement to be in the government...many people in governement now are dumb as a box of rocks. They don't have to be smart to be elected, they have to be personable and have good advisors working in the background.

Imagine being able to directly vote on education issues, warfare issues, and being able to prioritize budget items. Instead of blaming the morons in congress we would only be able to blame ourselves when things went horribly wrong. Of course, some form of standing governement would still be needed for a lot of reasons.

Again, I know the technology is not hot enough right now to provide the secruity that would be needed, etc, but it won't be long...
