Thesis 1: It is arguable that America’s use of the atomic bomb on Japan was the best method possible to end World War II, especially when taking into account the lives of soldiers and civilians, in addition to the costs of continued warfare. (NAT, 7.3.III.D & 7.3.III.E) Topic sentences: ➢ The atomic bomb provided justice for the hundreds of thousands of innocent Chinese citizens -and soldiers- killed by Japanese soldiers during the Rape of Nanking, and the Americans who died during the bombings of Pearl Harbor. ➢ To continue, with billions of American dollars already pumped into World War II, the atomic bomb ended the conflict almost instantly; making it the far cheaper alternative to possibly years of continued fighting via aerial bombing …show more content…
Thesis 2: It is arguable that the New Deal proposed by Franklin Delano Roosevelt was vastly successful in stimulating the American economy and society as a whole, due to the series of federal programs and acts it created which, were aimed at relieving the calamities brought about by the Great Depression. (POL, WXT, 7.1.III.A) Topic Sentences: ➢ The New Deal resulted in a federal program known as the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC); which helped the economy by putting hundreds of thousands of Americans to work on projects that benefited the environment. ➢ In addition, the New Deal led to the enactment of the Social Security Act of 1935; which helped establish a peace of mind among vulnerable American citizens by providing them with economic security. ➢ Lastly, the New Deal created The Works Progress Administration; which helped provide work to unskilled men throughout America. Thesis 3: It can be said that the different means of entertainment in America during the twentieth century brought people very close together, especially when looking at nightclubs, radios and theatrical performances.

Franklin D Roosevelt jumped into action to save the economy the 1930s. In Doc A, he said “we are giving opportunity of employment to one-quarter of a million of the unemployed, especially the young men…” (Doc A). This shows that the New Deal created jobs so people could get paid and ended the Depression. In Doc E, it shows that in 1937, the unemployment rate had increased down to 9.1% compared to the 22.5% it was before FDR took office (Doc E). This shows that the New Deal succeeded in providing work. Besides providing jobs, the New Deal gave Americans faith in their government.
Many of the New Deal’s relief programs were revolutionary; the federal government was now responsible for relieving the problems of society previously left to individuals, states, and local governments. Work relief programs, such as the popular Civilian Conservation Corps, which offered unemployed Americans a chance to earn wages while working to conserve natural resources, and the Works Progress Administration, which gave unemployed Americans
The New Deal help created jobs and money to a lot of people in the 1930s. The New Deal created jobs by “creating the Works Progress Administration (WPA) to provide jobs for unemployed people” (history.com/topics/new-deal). This administration gave jobs to millions
The atomic bombs might have killed thousands, but the bombs also saved millions. Before the war even started Japan had a grudge on America for cutting off of their oil supplies. Germany lost to the allies after hitter committed suicide. Japan was the last remain axis power. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, America had a right to join the war and get revenge. When America dropped the bombs, they did their best not to harm many civilians. Also they saved more lives than they took. The atomic bomb was the best way toned the war efficiently.
RESEARCH PAPER ROUGH DRAFT Have you ever thought that the atomic bomb actually saved lives? Well, it did, too. The development of atomic bombs during World War II played a significant role in bringing an end to the battles. The atomic bombs prevented the war from being prolonged, having a potentially more disastrous outcome, and having many more casualties on both sides of the conflict. The atomic bombs tremendously sped up the process of the war.
Arguably one of the best programs that the New Deal brought on was the WPA (Works Progress Administration). The WPA generated 3 million plus jobs alone for the young men in America (http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/fdr-creates-the-wpa). The picture shown
The New Deal was a set of policies implemented by President Franklin D. Roosevelt to help guide Americans through the Great Depression. They were designed to provide “relief, recovery, and reform” to the American people struggling during these times. Historians have offered varied interpretations of the successes and shortcomings of the New Deal. Despite these arguments, the New Deal achieved success in achieving its objectives. The New Deal provided millions of unemployed people with well-paying jobs to help support themselves and their families.
The New Deal was not solely dedicated to new buildings and big projects. It also helped the environmental status of the community. The Civilian Conservation Corporation helped with the land and resources that were needed. In the picture, you can see a camp they are using to do these tasks. “Projects include planting trees and building state parks.”
The release of two atomic bombs on Japan in August 1945 helped end World War II. However, it had unintended consequences. It caused the conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union.
With troubling incidents like the stock market crash of 1929, reform was highly necessary to never have a relapse of these events in the future. Historian Allan Nevins says that the New Deal was the epiphany the government needed to possess greater responsibility for the economic welfare of its citizens. It made the government initiate attempts to reorganize the economic turmoil and restore the people’s faith in banking system which was successful with the Emergency Banking Relief Act and Bank Holiday. Congress allotted for the Treasury Department to weed out the unfit banks and reopen the stable banks, significantly lowering bank failures. Especially with measures like the Glass-Steagall Act it offered assurance and insurance to citizens with a compensation of 5,000 dollars in the case of an inconvenience of their bank and since the creation of the FDIC there were no incidents in which a depositor has lost its insured funds. Many of the legislations passed under the Reform point remained for fifty years to prove the reliability and effectiveness like the Securities and Exchange Commission that regulated stock market activities and prevented another large scale crash to occur, keeping the economy at bay. And the Social Security Act of 1935 to reinforce the sensation of
was fully justified in dropping the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, because of the unprovoked and brutal attacks on civilians, grounded airplanes, and the docked U.S. Pacific fleet by the Japanese. By retaliating with the atomic bomb to end the war the United States showed the world the power and weapons of mass destruction that it possessed and that it was not afraid to use them. This also issued a warning to the Soviet Union, who at the time was our ally, but was slowly turning into an enemy. In addition to showing the world the United States power, the atomic bombs crushed Japan not just physically, but also morally giving them no other option, but to surrender. Japan was on the edge of surrender with a great amount of inner turmoil, but Japans military leaders had declared no surrender and ordered their people to fight to the death of the last man, woman, and child, so in using the atomic bomb we forced them to the breaking point and saved millions of lives. Without the dropping of the atomic bombs the U.S. would have invaded the Japanese homeland in Operation Downfall where a great slaughter would have ensued. Nearly 500,000 Purple Heart medals were pre-made in anticipation of the invasion, but the atomic bombs saved this massive loss of life. The results brought about by the atomic bombs were very devastating and gruesome; they caused thousands of deaths and injuries and should not be employed except in the most dire
The New Deal provided employment for 3 million young men. Through the Civilian Conservation Act, uniformed young men were recruited to work in various employment such as reforestation, fire fighting, flood control and swamp drainage. These jobs not only helped the people financially, but also gave a sense of accomplishment and prevented them from committing crimes.
The new deal provided helping programs such as the Social securities act, WPA, and the federal Emergency Relief Act to lower unemployment and to help those who couldn't
Some regard the atomic bomb as “the thank God for the atom bomb”. This places God on the U.S. side and regards the bombs as our saving grace. This bomb forced the Japanese to surrender which in turn proved the U.S. to be the heroes who saved the American’s lives.1 The Americans intended on ending the war but did not expect to end it with such a large number of casualties. The results of the atomic bomb and how it effected the Japanese people both emotionally and physically will be addressed. “The bombs marked both an end and a beginning—the end of an appalling global conflagration in which more than 50 million people were killed and the beginning of the nuclear arms race and a new world in which
Once President Franklin Roosevelt was elected during the Great Depression, his first 100 days enacted what he called the New Deal. This “deal” was a series of reforms that were meant to increase available jobs, better the working conditions, and put money back into the economy. Jobs offered during this time, as well as the relief, recovery, and reform efforts gave a kick start to the American economy, helping to pull us out of the Great Depression. Some examples of these efforts can be seen in the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), the National Recovery Administration (NRA), and the Social Security Act (SSA).
