Answer:

Some of the issues that polarized American Society ever since are:

  • Gun politics - the right to keep guns is protected by the Second Amendment. However, the amount of guns in the United States is large, and some political commentators argue that this is one of the causes of the increasing amount of mass shootings in the country. This is why people on different political aisles have called for more gun regulation, while others oppose these measures.
  • Abortion - this is a hot button issue up to this day. People disagree on everything here: whether a fetus is a human being or not, whether women should keep unwated pregnacies or not, whether the argument should be framed in a religious fashion or in a secular fashion, etc.
  • Recreational drug use and legalization - Drug use is still frowned upon by most of society, but this has not stopped marihuana from being legalized in several states. Many economists support legalization because they believe that prohibition only leads to inflated prices in black markets that are prone to violence. Legalization of hard drugs such as cocaine and heroine, however, is much more controversial.
  • Separation of church and state - Some people believe that United States is a Christian nation, and that the church should have a lot of influence in the government, while others argue that America is a secular country, and that state and religous matters are separate.

Good Morning!
<span>Nazis discriminated against Jews.

Among the similarities of Nazi and other measures to the Jews of his day is the idea that the Jews were inferior, or because of their ethnicity, or working with a loan, making a profit. Since before the Middle Ages this prejudice has recurred.

Do you think the united states was justified in supporting military efforts in places like Chile and Angola?
tia_tia [17]

The political support extended by US in supporting Chile and Angola were significant.

Explanation:

It was during the Chilean civil war, US backed Chile' president but the British were supporting the congressional forces in Chile. It was after the American independence, that America began to exert great influence on the domestic affairs of Chile and even in the military efforts of the war and thus causing pressure to the British forces to leave Chile. The influence of the United States of America in both the economic and the political arenas of Chile has gradually increased over two centuries  and continues to be significant.

U.S. assistance through the International Military Education and Training program finances professional military education opportunities at United States military education institutions. US is justified in supporting Chile and Angola, as they are the small nations which claimed independence and America is said to issue seventy three percent of Military support to the world nations.
