There are a lot of possible reasons why Beveridge wanted to hold on to the Philippines as a colony or so to say impose imperialism over Philippines. Some say, that his primary objective was to gain economic profit as well as his belief, which was somehow racist, over the supremacy of the Anglo- Saxon. Another was, he also argued that if US had the control over Philippines, this would give US businesses the vast opportunities to trade in the Pacific, especially in China. Beveridge also pushed the idea that Filipinos are barbarous and cannot govern themselves. Along with these, he justified that the Americans were the chosen ones by God among all nations of the Anglo- Saxon to lead in the world’s regeneration.

Explain two points of view in immigration

vova2212 [387]

Some see immigration as a negative phenomenon, as it affects economy, jobs and rights of native people. While other see immigration as a good thing because it can bring new consumers, new culture, new knowledge. It is always possible to point out advantages and disadvantages.

Immigration is a natural human phenomenon, but modern societies with civil rights evolutions are addressing it differently than earlier as now there is so much more control over borders and passages of humans from one place to another.

The positive side it can help grow the economy, regulate and increase low birth rate or problems with elderly populations, fill up jobs or positions that are out of the market in certain place (example: for lower and heavy jobs or either high skilled as nurses or doctors). The negative side is if there is no job for the immigrants or houses enough they will be homeless and will need support from the government, this can affect negative all the social structure, bringing health issues, increase of violence and many other issues.

What are Some of the historical events that shaped the formation of the US federal government?

Brums [2.3K]

One of the biggest historical events leading to the formation of the US government was Enlightenment ideas stemming from Europe. The writings of Montesquieu and Locke were particularly important to how the US was framed as a system of branches and individual freedoms. The goal was to give states power to make decisions individual to their people and region and keep larger matters like war, debt, taxes, etc. to the federal government. The initial amendments in the Constitution referred to as the Bill of Rights addressed specific issues the American people dealt with under British rule. For example, amendment 4 addresses the quartering of soldiers the colonists were required to do following the French and Indian War. The 10th amendment specifically gives rights to the states if it is not explicitly addressed in the Constitution for the federal government. This was to prevent a monarchy and/or dictatorship in the future.
