Progressive Era Reform

A problem that the U.S. has is border control and illegal immigration. This is a huge problem in todays society because people are coming into the U.U. illegally. This causes a lot of problems one of the problems is the people that cross the border take jobs from unemployed Americans that are in the U.S. The illegal aliens work for less money so business owners would hire some one that would be willing to be payed less money to work. Another problem they cause is drug smuggling, they bring in illegal drugs and sell them to Americans. Also they cause crime in the U.S. witch is a problem. A way the U.S. can fix this problem is have more border patrol and also it would be a good idea to have cameras around the borders so they can catch them in the act.

War on Spain!!

        On February 15th there was a huge explosion on the U.S.S. Maine. There were 1,500 sailors on the ship when it exploded all the sailors died in the explosion. Spain is to blame for this terrible explosion. While the sailors were sleeping the Spaniards came and blew up the U.S.S. Maine. Americans need to stand up for the fallen sailors and fight back. The only thing to do is get back at them. It is time to declare war on Spain!!
