Being a sharecropper or raising cotton in 1875 in Mississippi is exhausting, demeaning and destroys personal initiative. Being a share cropper might mean that you will have a little something left over for yourself if you have a very good crop. But without good crops, you will have nothing. My family and I work in the fields from sun up to sundown. We don’t own the land we work on. Our owner lets us grow crops on his land and takes a percentage of any profit. Sometimes we make enough money to have enough to eat and clothe ourselves. But it is more often that we just barely scrimp by. We eat what we can grow and on occasion, we can kill a chicken that we have raised. It is not a life you would wish on anyone.

manufactured goods:caused imperialism because nations wanted to gain markets to sell their goods
white man's burden:caused imperialism because nations felt it was their duty to "civilize" the nations in Africa and Asia
Reasons against imperialism:
hypocrisy, America claims government to be chosen by the people
America will now be involved in Asian conflicts

An amendment is the only way to change the Constitution and they are formal as I'm pretty sure that both houses of Congress-the Senate and the House of Representatives- has to agree to the change.
