Answer 1

Answer: Jackson claims this act will benefit everyone — the country, the states, and both the white and Native populations — in some ways, such as wealth and prosperity.

Explanation:

However, these were just "empty words". Jackson's claims, like those that he is the greatest friend of the Indians, are just empty. Jackson's actions in practice are in total contradiction to what he claimed. The relocation act, which was voted in the 1930s, is primarily the intention of the seventh president. Jackson has historically been remembered as the biggest proponent of expelling Indians from their land. America was expanding industrially during this period, and in those circumstances, it needed all the resources and natural space. Jackson encouraged his people to expel Indians in every way possible; threats, killings, violent deportations are just some of the elements used. Jackson did nothing (and he could) when individual states passed unhuman laws affecting Indians. Thus the Indians could not vote and paid taxes, and their land could be sold to anyone at any time.
