The question is: Shall we attempt to establish ourselves as a power in the far East and possess the Philippines for glory? . . .

[I]f we take the Philippines . . . they will yield us nothing, and probably be a source of annual expense. Certainly they will be a grievous drain upon revenue if we consider the enormous army and navy which we shall be forced to maintain upon their account. . . .
Whether the United States maintain its present unique position of safety, or forfeit it through acquiring foreign possessions, is to be decided by its action in regard to the Philippines.


Carnegie says that what the United States decides to do with the Philippines is important because

it will determine the nation’s future revenues

it will allow the nation to win power and glory

it will determine the future security of the nation

Answer:

Among the options given on the question the correct answer is option C.

It will determine the future security of the nation.

Explanation:The war between America and Philippines took place in 1899 to 1902 and the result was the Philippines was taken under control of USA which made the fall of first Philippines Republic. The war arose while Spain decided to hand over Philippines to USA after the short Spanish-American war. However, the invasion of Philippines by America was strongly opposed by many anti imperialist of USA.

Andrew Carnegie was one of them. He said America was never founded on the basis of imperialism. America gained the independence from the British colonization. During the founding of United States there was no policy of imperialism to secure the safety of the nation.

Moreover, Philippines was far away from the United States which can never be an actual territory of USA.So, it would cost a lot of money to maintain the military cost there.  Again the people of Philippine would sought to fight against the US which would risk the safety of the nation.

So, the answer of the question is option C.

Answer:

You can do the article and title part. (I'm making this short, so it won't meet all the requirements, so add on to what I am writing about.)

Explanation:

(First Paragraph) Add More to This!

The Louisiana Purchase, a purchase that doubled the size of the United States, greatly strengthened the country materially and strategically, provided a powerful impetus to westward expansion, and confirmed the doctrine of implied powers of the federal Constitution. This gives us the powerful nation we are to call home to this day, and for I am given the pleasure to explain why this event made that so.

(Second Paragraph)

The Louisiana Purchase was a big deal. The United States was having issues using the port of New Orleans. Western farmers needed to use this port to store and to ship their products. When we learned that Spain had transferred the Louisiana Territory to France, we offered to buy New Orleans and West Florida from France. It also ensured that France and probably other European countries would not try to take the land. (Now talk about this more)

(Third Paragraph)

The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 was extremely important to the United States because it dramatically expanded the size of the country. It essentially doubled the size of union. (Now talk about this more)

(Fourth Paragraph)

The Louisiana Purchase demonstrates Jefferson's ability to make pragmatic political decisions. Although contrary to some of his central principles, guaranteeing western expansion was so important to Jefferson's overall vision that he took bold action. The gains were dramatic, as the territory acquired would in time add 13 new states to the union. (Now talk about this more)
