what is Alexander Hamilton's opinion on establishing a national bank?
Answers
Answer:
Hamilton believed a national bank was necessary to stabilize and improve the nation's credit, and to improve handling of the financial business of the United States government under the newly enacted Constitution.
Explanation:
If Congress had other ways to secure its objectives, a nationally incorporated bank was unnecessary and improper. He also thought that a national bank was unconstitutional because the Tenth Amendment reserved all unenumerated powers to the states.
Answer:
He said " If we assume the debts, the Union gets a new line of credit a financial diuretic, how do you not get it? If we're aggressive and competitive, the Union gets a boost, you'd rather give it a sedative?"

Read the following paragraph and answer the question.
George Washington was born on February 22, 1732, in Westmoreland County, Virginia. Contrary to popular
belief, his teeth were not made of wood. By the age of twenty-three, he had already established himself as a
military hero in the French and Indian War. Four years later, he met and married Martha Dandridge Custis, a
young widow whose husband had died. Although they raised Martha's children from her previous marriage
and two of their grandchildren, the couple never had any children of their own. Washington died two years
before his wife. He became active in local politics and eventually became a leader in speaking out against the
magisterial British rule. When war broke out in 1775, he was chosen as commander-in-chief of the American
troops. At the end of the war, he was unanimously elected the nation's first president. He served two terms
and then retired to his home, Mount Vernon. He died on December 12, 1799, from pneumonia and bad
weather

What are the arguments that Lincoln did/did not free slaves?
Answers
Answer:
Fundamental to Lincoln's argument was his conviction that slavery must be dealt with as a moral wrong. It violated the statement in the Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal, and it ran counter to the intentions of the Founding Fathers.
Lincoln did not believe he, as the president, had the power under the Constitution to abolish slavery where it already existed. Nor did he want to anger the four slave states that remained in the Union. ... It freed all slaves in rebelling states.

Answers
Answer: the answer is a
Explanation:
Answer:
japanese-Americans were evaluated to determine how dangerous they were to American security. In one case a ceremonial bow was considered to be grounds for a weapons charge. Translations of Japanese terms also led to confusion and misinterpretations among many Americans, and the media further enhanced the hype. For example, one term was translated as 'military virtue association' but it was really a cultural club. Students may provide other examples from other sections of the lesson.

Should a government/religion control people's lives? Using the vocabulary usury, predestination, and Calvinism. Please help!!!
Answers
Answer:
A government nor religion should control the people's lives. Religion is for enlightenment of the soul and shouldn't control the lives of its worshippers. From the 16th century to the 19th century, the Catholic Church would control its worshipper through fear in England and would draw out money in the process. A religion might dangle predestination in front of the noses of its worshippers and violate human rights by saying it was meant to be. Governments that control its people's lives are usually authoritarian and probably have committed many human rights violations. The worst that could happen with this is a combination of controlling churches and governments; Religious-based Governments. Religious-based countries may follow a doctorine set within the religion and might cause oppression among the population.

Why do you think it was so hard for Lincoln and the leaders of his time to imagine America as a biracial state?
Answers
Answer:
There was a period when he found it impossible to envision a biracial society, and he thought that former slaves should leave America and return to Africa.
Explanation:
Although one of the things Abraham Lincoln is celebrated for is the Emancipation Proclamation, which he issued in 1863, he didn't always believe that all slaves should be freed or that they should be granted citizenship after they were freed.
Answer and Explanation: There was a period when he found it difficult to imagine a biracial society, and he felt that previous slaves should pass on America and return to Africa. Albeit one of the relative multitude of things President is notable for is the Liberation Decree, which he gave in 1863, he didn't continuously accept that each slave ought to be liberated or that they should be conceded citizenship after they were liberated.
