ESSAY: SEWARD'S PROPOSAL
Here is your goal for this assignment:

Write an essay that explains your position on Seward's Proposal.

Imagine you are a member of Congress in 1867 and debating William Seward's proposal for the purchase of Alaska. You are asked to explain how you plan to vote on the proposal. Prepare a speech of 350 words explaining either your support for or opposition to the proposal. Thoroughly explain and justify your support for or opposition to the purchase. Use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation as you write your speech. Note: Be sure to write your speech as if you are a member of Congress in 1867, not someone who lives in the present day.

Proper documentation includes both parenthetical citations within the body of your report anytime you summarize or quote a source, as well as a works cited page.

In a two paragraph essay, you will identify and discuss the causes and resolutions to the great depression.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The Great Depression was caused by several different factors including buying on margin and the Stock Market Crash of 1929. These two events are tied together, as many American citizens bought stocks on margin. In this case, a person would pay 10% down on the price of a stock and then would borrow the other 90% from a bank. During the 1920's, this did not seem like a bad idea. This is due to the fact that stocks were quite consistently increasing in price. However, when the Stock Market Crash late in 1929, millions of Americans lost their life savings because they invested too much in stocks. Due to the stock market crash, banks were shut down, millions of citizens became homeless, and the unemployment rate reached nearly 20%.

Herbert Hoover's policies were considered quite ineffective, as he very rarely used the power of the federal government to interfer in the ecnomy. This is why the shanty towns developed during this time were called "Hoovervilles." Franklin D. Roosevelt's policies were more effective than Hoover's, as he implemented his New Deal policies. This resulted in the creation of federal agencies that helped to employ thousands of Americans as well as creating agencies that regulated the American economy to ensure that another economic collapse did not take place.
