Even though both sides of the bargain achieved something, the treaty became a point of controversy because it could be viewed as an agreement that <em>favored the british</em>, being that a lot of issues caused by them, such as wartime damages, illegal capture of american ships and conflicts with the indians caused by the british occupation. The british agreed with leaving said posts but only after one year and a half. In the treaty there was also a ton limit to the trade that americans could have, making profiting from the pelt trade almost impossible.

Also, the treaty was configured in a way that seemed to favor the Federalists to the detriment of the opposing party, the Jeffersonians (who where against the british, believing that Britain opposed the values of the American people, prefering to support France whenever international issues called for U.S. contribution), who rallied against Washington, Hamilton and Jay. The Federalists where in favor of the british, believing that going against the british in this matter could lead to war against them.

On 12 March 1947, President Harry Truman addressed Congress, hoping to promote U.S. aid to anti-Communist governments in the Middle East and Asia. "At the present moment in world history," President Harry S. Truman proclaimed, "nearly every nation must choose between alternative ways of life." On the one hand, he explained, the choice is life "based upon the will of the majority," and "distinguished by free institutions, representative government, free elections, guarantees of individual liberty, freedom of speech and religion, and freedom from political oppression." Truman painted the other option—communism—as life in which the will of a few is forcibly inflicted upon the majority. "It relies upon terror and oppression, a controlled press and radio, fixed elections, and the suppression of personal freedom."37

<span>With the end of </span>World War II, the United States and its one-time ally, the Soviet Union, clashed over the reorganization of the postwar world. Each perceived the other as a significant threat to its national security, its institutions, and its influence over the globe. To the United States, the USSR was intent on spreading communism by any means necessary. And with each move made by Soviet leader Joseph Stalin to spread his sphere of influence in order to secure his nation's borders, the U.S. found its fears confirmed.

<span>President Truman, then, thought it vital that the U.S. find ways to strengthen its alliances abroad. The United States must embrace a new, global role, Truman urged, whereby it would befriend nations hostile to the USSR and orchestrate the battle against the growing Communist threat. Congress agreed that the Communist menace </span>must be contained<span> and that American foreign policy should be based on the preservation of those regimes prepared to fight it. Thus, it approved the </span>"Truman Doctrine,"<span> authorizing millions of dollars in military aid, grants to train foreign armies, and the allocation of U.S. military advisors to countries such as Greece, Turkey, and later Vietnam.</span>

Why were American women pressured to leave their jobs after the war?
ZanzabumX [31]
Hi, Domesticity and Money Pressures
Many families wanted extra income -- and required a wife's earnings — to afford the lifestyle they desired. Yet middle-class women felt the pressure of the culture telling them to stay home. Many also had little desire to work in the nine-to-five jobs open to them.
