     The American settlers were dependent on exports by England during this period we can see that America still needed some basic products such as soap, tea, clothing among others.

      In 1760 America was suffering an impact on its economy, a slow trade and the debt with Great Brittany increased. Besides in November 20 of 1767 the Townshed act  took place in America. The settlers had to pay fees on items such as glass , paper, paint. All imported from Great Britain. Some merchants started a move to stop these products from entering America hoping to reduce the sale of these products. In 1768 merchants voted to block English trade.

      Washington and Hamilton worked together to create a monetary system by creating a central bank to help increase the nation's economy.
     
    The nascent nation of america had great problems but were solved only thanks to the work of great forgiveness of history as you can see in this article.

The Tobacco and the American Dream.

     The tobacco was one of the main income for settler for a long period of time.  the Spanish learned to cultivate tobacco from Native Americans and they introduced to Europe. Why this has a relationship with the America dream ? In this case there is a close relationship because many of the settlers wanted to get a lot of money and the exportation of tobacco to erope was helping to them. The tobacco was cultivated in the west indies, but john rofe started successfully to grew tobacco in the Jamestown colony.

hola, bienvenidos

I am a student of  U.S history, my teacher asked us to keep a blog. We have to choose a theme, and follow it through American history. My theme will be the American dream. In my opinion the american dream is an idea that the people have when they come to North America. This idea is about work hard to get anything that you want, most of the time this mean have more money or a better life. The American dream is important to me because like a lot of people, i believe that i can get it. What I mean is, I came to this country trying to get a better life. But this article says that the American dream is becoming harder for immigrants to have. in summary what i can say about this article is that the people who came to the others countries are  having difficulties. To get a job and finish their education are some of the problems that the people are having it. Also they are trying to create mini towns (territories) where they can live like in their natal countries.
