“Peacefully…”
She’s so pretty, I would listen to her talk about Dollar Diplomacy.. Oh wait.
Yeah, he should’ve just stayed a judge like he wanted.
Sounds like raft was just ineffective period. Hence his 1 term
What everyone fail’s to understand is: In 1871 congress took land from 2 states Maryland and Virginia and created a foreign district of Columbia and a new corporation there the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” CORPORATION COMPANY INC. and turned it all over to the ROTHSCHILD FAMILY of bankers. .….The DOLLAR DIPLOMACY was there project to take over ALL BANKING IN THE WORLD! (the new world order) with them as the leaders!
Neoliberalism and liberalism
Herself is a distraction. I am constantly thinking what score I should give her.
What she didn’t add was dollar diplomacy is still going on but they call it foreign aid now. The only difference is instead of buying and owning industry in a foreign country we just give them money and expect them to hopefully side with us.
the “progressive era” ruined this nation
You would think the History Channel could spell John Hay’s name correctly.
This lady should make more videos for the history channel. Very clear explanations.
ive yet to find a single video or website that actually explains dollar diplomacy and not just the history behind it
McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft were not the only meddlers in our history. Wilson’s moral interventionism also failed. Europeans resented his meddling in their affairs- although to be fair, when the US was not a part of the very league of nations he helped create, it was because Congress blocked him. It is good to try to help the rest of the world, but not when we insist on doing everything our way. It brings to mind the lyrics of a Thrice song “swingin my hands through a swarm of bees. Don’t understand why they are stingin me. Do what I want, do what I please, do what I want till I got what I need.”
There’s always people that want poor people to stay poor so they can control them.
There’s always rich people that will exploit poor people for cheap labor.
And there are always people who protest business and jobs moving to a poor area to employ them.
And instead of working towards getting the people better conditions, wages, improved by living conditions in an area after proof that they will build quality, be a stable workforce with loyalty to their work becomes apparent.
That’s when the protesters come in and destroy everything and demotivates the workers by lying to them about how first world people have it better.
Yeah of course first world people have it better but they’ve been trying to improve their situations for thousands of years.
They don’t just overnight, boom turn into a megalopolis.
Better than the foreign policy we’ve had since T.Roosevelt up to today. Isolationist>Globalist
hHhHm so it’s spelled John HAYE in the video, but his name is actually John HAY. ..>? CREDIBILITY??
Wow, this certainly does give American leadership the benefit of the doubt.
im in love
There are many factors to diplomacy. Dollars work sometimes and often not. It depends on the country. Politicians in the USA and other countries are most often crooked.. Duh!
Would love to know the sources for this video! TIA!
Old video but… dollar diplomacy does work on American politicians..
Pelosi
Swallwell
Finestien
Hunter Biden
Joe Biden
All have foreign national finance backing their dictatorship
Doesn’t sound like a failure if we still feel the impact years later
I beg to differ…
I think it’s working for China There “Belt and Roads Initiative” 🤔
So the question is who does it best? 👍🏿
I’m A US citizens so I would want my Gov to do it best! If u are a China citizen u would want China to do it best not Japan right? 🤣
At least use an accurate map.
Sounds a bit like the policy of China today.
Why does America think they are supposed to be in everybody’s business??
Great video. Thank you so much
He didn’t even want to be President. He wanted to be a judicial judge 👨⚖️.
People around him pushed for him to be TR successor and then he gets judged harshly for his 1st term and betrayed in the next election that leads to the horribly racist Woodrow Wilson.…..
Good job Taft and TR 👎
Sounds like our southern neighbors found a way for dollar diplomacy to work in the USA, thanks to fentanyl
