During the 1912 campaign, Woodrow Wilson pledged to restore opportunity in American life. Once in office, Wilson moved to lower tariffs, reform banking, regulate corporations, and aid farmers and wage earners. As Wilson began his second term in office, progressives could claim some success in their efforts to improve American life. Yet much remained to be done. Progressives had barely begun to clean up government and regulate business, women still did not have the right to vote, and the pledge of equal opportunity for all Americans remained unfulfilled.

ReplyDeleteWoodrow Wilson has pledged to restore opportunity in American life. He is helping smaller businesses stay afloat and out of the shadows of the larger businesses. Some small businesses are a families main source of income and without that income they would not survive. Wilson also is reforming banking, making it more user friendly and safe. These are just a few changes Wilson has done for this country. These changes have/will strengthen our country.
ReplyDelete1) President Wilson is on the right track to make America a better and more efficient country. He is taking steps in the right direction by trying to lower tariffs, reform banking, regulate corporations, and aid farmers and wage earners. The people have to understand this is all going to take time so we can make it the best we can. The people have to understand that if you try to do it fast and make all these changes that the changes wont last. But if you take your time and make the changes the best you can it will last longer. That is our goal is to not just to clean up the government but also make a government to last a long time and be more efficient. So stick with us America and we will do the best we can to make this country better.
ReplyDeleteWilson promises that he will do everything in his power to continue the reform for tariffs and banking, but in a more efficient way than previous Presidents. The plan is to greatly decrease tariffs and create a better banking system. A three-level banking system is the best idea. The first level will be the Federal Reserve Board, appointed by the President, and charged with running the system. The second level will be several Federal Reserve banks under mixed public and private control. They serve other banks rather than individuals. And the last level will be private banks which will be able to borrow from the Federal Reserve banks at interest rates set by the Board. Now, all we have to wait for this to be followed through, and this will not take long.
ReplyDeleteThis all sounds like a good idea. All around there will be less costs for families. The tariff lower would be great. Vote for Wilson he is trying to help people.
ReplyDeleteLower tariffs on imported wares, a more reliable banking experience, and stricter antitrust legislation is what this country needs. President Wilson supports the efforts to bring into law these ideas. Own a business, but have problems importing goods to sell due to taxes? Wilson's tariff reforms are the solution for you. Tired of the unreliability of banks during financial panics? Wilson's banking reforms are what you need. Fed up with large corporations ruining the opportunities of your small business? Wilson's antitrust laws could fix your problems. Support President Wilson, and you could get just what you need.
ReplyDeleteLower tariffs and reform banking. Sounds great right? If you want someone that is doing what is best for the people then vote for Wilson.
ReplyDeleteA new leader stands before the American people today. He is Woodrow Wilson -- the new twenty-eighth president of the United States. He believes in lower tariffs reducing the amount of money taken in by the federal government. So the Senate is also approving a tax on income, or earnings. A constitutional amendment is being passed to permit such a tax.
ReplyDeleteVote for Woodrow Wilson! He is a man of the people trying to do what is best for our country. He wants to help smaller businesses. His plans are to have a lower Tariff bill, and to reform banking. His promises will most likely follow through because he is hard working and believes in what he does. Vote Wilson.
