He believes it was ignorance. Farmers in Jefferson's time where valuable because they fed the nation.
This of course is still true and what makes them valuable today as well.
Farmers in Jefferson's time where often wealthy and highly educated as well this made them valuable.
Today we have many professions that have educated people doing them and education is the most valuable commodity in a citizen because an educated citizen makes good choices in their vote.
Hi my dear friend,
During the 1930s, the combination of the Great Depression and the memory of tragic losses in World War I contributed to pushing American public opinion and policy toward isolationism. Isolationists advocated non-involvement in European and Asian conflicts and non-entanglement in international politics.
~Thank you
Yes, I do think so.
The reason for this is that I think it would be likely that people born and raised in America would feel that Great Britain, which was far away and did not understand Americans' needs and situations, should not rule over them. So I feel that a similar struggle for independence would have happened anyway.
