The U S election campaign ended in an unprecedentedly
fierce contest with both parties giving their all
Because this election has a decisive impact on the future of the United States for the next four years
Its significance can be compared to a few major turning points in American history
The first decisive election in the US occurred at the beginning of the century
At that time two major divergent trends emerged among the founding fathers
of the United States regarding the direction and course of the new nation
The first president George Washington and Secretary of the Treasury
Alexander Hamilton strongly supported following the British path
That is emphasizing traditional values rule of law order and Christian virtue
in order to build a strong and powerful America led by the federal government
The people who drafted the Declaration of Independence and
the US Constitution such as Thomas Jefferson and James Madiso
en rubble the French Revolution the so-called democracy needs to raise its voice
To achieve a comprehensive revolution in solving problems in one go earth-shattering
This is the decisive choice determining the fate of the United States
The United States had just gone through a difficult war for independence
If the continental army led by Washington had not received direct military assistance from France
It was unthinkable to defeat the British army don't even dream of establishing a nation
But what is surprising is that the founders like Washington and Hamilton
Do not abandon your system just because you have received legal support
Instead after independence they resolutely followed the path of Britain
According to the political economic and ethical values of the UK
Their strong spirit and rational ability with a far-sightedness
that is not driven by emotion is decisive in building a great America
It includes the only ultra-hard position currently in the
world and benefits from their wise choice and courageous spirit
Washington won through Hamilton's loyal path
It can be said that Hamilton played a significant role
Although he was only the finance minister at that time Washington's cabinet
had only the secretary of state with a staff of just over a dozen people
and the finance department of nearly 100 people
Hamilton led the finance department and established tariff mechanisms
Customs bonds central bank foreign trade and free markets
Basically the finance ministry holds the main power
Hamilton was born in a remote and impoverished part of
the British Empire and grew up in a difficult environment
Then he worked as an accountant in the foreign maritime trade business
Help him become familiar with the business economic and system of England
They remained steadfast in following Britain's model despising the path of the French Revolution
He and Jefferson clashed
He was backed by Washington so their faction the initially conservative faction in America gained the upper hand
Washington led the Continental Army to victory in the Revolutionary War
And was seen by the American people as a hero attaining a high position that overshadowed Jefferson
Washington was in power during the most difficult phase of the war for independence
Washington served two terms as president over eight years
And the third president Adams was also a conservative
During those 12 years the United States established a pro-
British system Jefferson and Madison both later became presidents
Both of them served as president for eight years but they did not completely overthrow this system
Here are four main reasons
First even though they made significant contributions to drafting the Declaration of Independence and the U S Constitution
But in any case they are only good in the aspect of learning or education not in managing and building a specific government
Therefore in general they can only continue to follow in the footsteps of their predecessor
Second although Jefferson emphasized a small government and focused on states' rights
But when he became president he realized the importance of the federal government
Dad after Jefferson became president
But the brutal information about the French Revolution was more widely spread in America
which reduced his enthusiasm for supporting France and participating in the French Revolution
Fourth he and Madison became president and knew the price that had to be paid
No longer enthusiastic about mobilizing the masses to take to the streets to build the so-called democratic foundation and the great revolution
Therefore the model of England threatens Washington and Hamilton
And of course there have been innovations that have been established and continue
This is a major contribution and the first major choice in the history of the United States
They made the right decision
Industrialization in the North defeated the peasant economy in the South
The second important choice was during the North-South civil war
Besides the issue of freeing black slaves there was actually a deeper issue related to the future and destiny of America
The North of Lincoln wants to follow the path of an industrialized power
The South of Jefferson wanted to take the rural scenery and small-scale agriculture mainly cotton farming
Lincoln also had a long-term vision like Washington and Hamilton recognizing the need to industrialize America
But the South did not only fail to abolish the slave system it also rejected industrialization and even threatened independence
Finally the civil war ended the divisions
The industrial North defeated the agricultural South
The idea of free economy has defeated the household rural economic model
Lincoln wanted to abolish slavery
The most fundamental or basic starting point of his philosophy is to implement economic freedom
He believed that only freedom could bring individuals economic independence dignity and a better life
He was the first president of the Republican Party formerly known as the Federalist Party which was the party of Washington and Hamilton
Lincoln strongly believed in the value of a free market economy He
understood that you cannot help the weak by taking from the strong
You cannot help the small by destroying the large
you cannot make the poor rich by taking from the rich
It is not possible to help workers by taking away from the employer
it is not possible to escape difficulties by procrastinating
You cannot achieve stability by taking loans
You cannot build character and courage by depriving others of their motivation and independence
You cannot help others by doing for them what they can do themselves
Lincoln's view on this is very clear
He does not emphasize the issue of rich-poor equality opposes the hatred of poverty and struggles for equal treatment
He only emphasized the spirit of self-reliance and self-strengthening of
each individual relying on personal ability initiative and self-improvement
Later historians noted that Lincoln was determined to
abolish and finally eliminate the system of black slavery
It is not based on the idea of racial equality or the ideal of human dignity
But based on his belief that all forms of freedom begin with economic freedom
Like the first conservative president Washington
The first Republican president Lincoln also had a far-sighted vision
and laid a solid foundation for today's strong and prosperous America
Reagan overturned Roosevelt's New Deal and the Great Society
The third important choice was during World War II in the Cold War era
President Roosevelt of the Left Wing Democratic Party took advantage of the Great Depression
In the 1930s to implement what was called the New Deal economic policy
It is essentially a comprehensive move towards socialism including high taxes
nationalization poverty alleviation and establishing a social security insurance一些
The government's regulatory scope extended all the way to cemeteries
The highest personal income tax rate at that time reached 91%
The efforts of the hardworking people were ruthlessly plundered by high taxes imposed by the government
From that they proceeded to divide the assets which is how the Neuroscience Institute and Italy under Mussolini would speak
Roosevelt broke the unwritten law established by Washington's father that a president
could serve only two terms in eight years and he went on to serve a fourth term
He died at the beginning of his fourth
term After he died the U S Congress passed legislation limiting
the presidency to two terms to prevent a second Roosevelt
After Roosevelt's death although the US economy recovered
Republican President Dwight Eisenhower did not strongly confront it
and implement new economic policies
In 1960 the leftist Democratic president Lyndon Johnson
Continuing to expand the government and proposing the creation of a great
society it was essentially to consolidate Roosevelt's new economic policy
Help the government control the private economic lifelines
It wasn't until the early 1980s when Republican President Ronald Reagan took office
In his eight-year term he finally opposed the new economic policy
and reduce the maximum personal income tax rate from 42 percent to 28 percent
This is the largest tax cut in American history simultaneously eliminating
long-standing prejudices and bad habits that have limited the economy
Relaxing restrictions on businesses emphasizing morality with
faith in God the rise of the American conservative movement
The event also brought a strong recovery to the US economy Many on
the left emphasized the bright economic picture during Clinton's time
But the reality is that Reagan's tax cuts and easing of
government restrictions hindered the development of businesses
It created an extended period of sustained economic growth lasting 110 months
Trump shattered Obama's dream of a social welfare state
The fourth major choice occurred in recent years
After President Obama the first African American president
was elected he pushed forward a comprehensive social agenda
Not only does it promote tax increases nationalization and poverty
equality but it also throws money into high welfare policies
The number of people receiving benefits increased from over 20 million to nearly 50 million
On average one out of every six Americans receives benefits
It continues to carry out military cuts and diplomatic compromises
Obama bowed his head everywhere during his visits
Moreover his eight years in power even exacerbated
serious racial tensions between whites and blacks
The issue of Black lives matter and anti-fascist movements
Antifa and anti-fascism in the US today are led by extreme left-wing anti-fascist groups
This is the political legacy of Obama
That context made the American people angry
Under the attack from the left-wing media
and even some global leftists
Donald Trump a businessman outside of
politics suddenly emerged and entered
the White House It could be said that Obama was Trump's biggest supporter
Because without the eight terrible years for America under Obama there would
have been no chance for an outsider like Trump to enter the White House
Trump vowed to drain the swamp to return America to the people
After four years in power
Many Americans were moved and inspired by the courage
The reforms and achievements of Mr Trump in fulfilling his campaign promises
The Democratic Party is also concerned that Trump will do it again in the next four
years causing the US to abandon socialism which the left-wing is concerned about
Therefore this election has become another major historical choice in American history
I conclude this is the fourth important choice
If Trump wins he will reshape America in his own image
That is the United States continues the constitutional spirit of Washington Lincoln and Reagan
If Mr Biden wins
en the United States will follow the fervent French
Revolution today it is Black Lives Matter and Antifa
Destroying traditional values and institutions in the name of democracy and revolutionary slogans
America will be dominated by the left
Some people summarize this choice as whether to choose
the great America of tradition or to abandon America
The greatness of the United States is not accidental
From the crucial historical decisions made by the United States
It can be seen that the founders and
outstanding politicians of the United
States especially the American people constantly face difficult choices
And has often made wrong choices that caused heavy losses to the United States
But in the end they have always known how to use their wise intellect to fix things
Today the United States once again stands at a
crossroads What does the outcome of this election imply
