A Time When United States Wasted Money

The response of the United States to Communism after World War 2 is unacceptable. The term unacceptable is appropriate because they made bad decisions . It’s important to understand this was a time people was scared of nuclear war. After analyzing the documents, I see a negative impact on historical themes: Politics and Culture.

Also, “Containment” affected politics in a negative way based on wasted millions and harshness. For Instance, in Source 4, ” Vietnam War… biggest and most costly use of containment policy.. We supported Vietnam both militarily and economically. In addition, it states,” To Counter this the United States provided financial and military support to the Afghans. So, the United States would rather waste millions than see Communism spread and the U.S. would do anything to stop the growth of the USSR because the United States didn’t won’t communist to spread or gain power,but still did.

However, some may feel the response of the United States to communism after World War 2 affected politics in a positive way. However, the evidence in the text shows this was not completely true because in source 4 they was only helping Greece and Turkey because they didn’t won’t them to be Communist.

In Conclusion , the evidence strongly supports continuity in history. The United States lost power and didn’t  have to do Soviet Union like that. Perhaps, like Trump is doing things that is not right like trying to shut the government down and make people with little income pay for things. It helps us to understand what happened in the past is happening in the present and that we need to make a change on how we living. Perhaps people should start thinking differently and make a change for living. It’s like we still are living in the past. Image result for united wasted money on communist

  1. Good job!! I mainly focused on this sentence: ” It helps us to understand what happened in the past is happening in the present and that we need to make a change on how we living.” This statement gave me a good understanding of your perspective. I agree with your statement because the United States still waste a lot of money on unimportant things. I really like your picture and how it connects to the topic you’re discussing. This makes me feel that I can trust you on this topic and that you have a good understanding of this topic. Next time, I suggest, you should remember to close your quotations when you’re done citing evidence because it can be very confusing when reading. Over all you did a good job. I rate your work a 2 out of 3 because you still have some room for improvement. How would you have spent the government wasted??

  2. {Extra Credit} Great work!!! I rate this 3 out of 3. The sentence I really focus on is “So, the United States would rather waste millions than see Communism spread and the U.S. would do anything to stop the growth of the USSR because the United States didn’t want communist to spread or gain power, but still did”. This grabs my attention because I agree with what you had said ” the United States would rather waste millions than see Communism spread” I agree with this because the U.S is had done this before in the past so it’s understandable to see them fall this low again. This made me feel like great because I could really understand what your post was saying and I even agree with somethings and learn new things I didn’t know before. But in the future, I would watch out for some miss spelling and some capitalization errors in your post that you should try to fix or watch out in the next post. My question is what does your picture you posted mean and how does it relate to the rest of post?
