Nuclear Weapons Atomic Bomb
1,075 words... hold be noted that we have generally been at a disadvantage in crisis, since the Communists command a more flexible set of tools for imposing strain on the free world than we normally command.

This asymmetry makes it attractive for Communists to apply limited debilitating pressures up...

Technological Advances Metaphysical Progress Moral
370 wordsProgress has always been a goal of the United States and of the world. In our eagerness to define and measure progress, we have created a plethora of meanings and measures. The Gross National Product and the Dow Jones Industrial Average measure economic progress. Other, more general forms of progress are more difficult to discern. To find broader meanings, I choose to break progress down into technological, or material progress and moral, or metaphysical progress. It seems clear that technology ...

When he won a resounding victory in 1904, he promised not to run in 1908. He held to his promise, even though he loved being president, and even though it was apparent that he could have won easily.

I will explain to you my point of view later. Now I want to say that not everyone was agreed with USA policy against the...
