Question

What arguments did the anti imperialist league offer against the annexation of any new territories?

Answer 1

The anti-imperialist argued that:
- imperialism is immoral because we diminish other cultures and forcing them to follow ours.
- The process of annexation would cost a huge amount of money that would cripple our own economy.
- The mentality of defeat and conquer could affect how citizens think and imposed the same principle to other citizens of united states, which would create a division in the country,
