What are the key arguments that Thomas Jefferson makes for the colonies’ separation from Great Britain? In one paragraph please
Maslowich
<span>For Jefferson, the basic elements of the argument for separation lie in a lack of respect.  Jefferson frames the argument that the violation of economic and political rights that the Colonists have had to suffer were the result of a lack of respect.  Jefferson is emphatic in how the British government has refused to "assent" to the basic principles of dignity and decency that could enable a successful relationship and partnership to develop.  For Jefferson, the critical argument that makes rebellion and dissolution absolute is that this lack of respect will not depart.  As long as this imbalance exists, the Colonists will be treated in a secondary manner, denying them their full voice and activation of their rights.  It is in this light where I think Jefferson's key arguments lie.  In the second section regarding the "Grievances" that the Colonists have borne, Jefferson outlines all that has been done.  In doing so, he solidifies his initial argument that separation from Great Britain is the only path that the Colonists can pursue.  The relationship between both nations has been so degraded by a lack of respect that there is no other option.

Which conclusion is supported by the American public's shifting opinions about the Panama Canal over the course of the 20th cent
algol13
The correct answer is <span>C. Even a period of only a few decades can greatly change the historical context surrounding an event.

It showed how fast the public opinion can change. Originally Panamanians were supportive of the canal and the policies regarding it in relations to the United States, but very soon they started disagreeing with them and wanting the United States to give the canal ownership and control back to Panama who wanted to remove itself from relations with the US.</span>
