World War 1 and Its Aftermath

Tell me: In your opinion, should the US have fought in WWI? You can answer any way you want, but defend your answer with details from the text. If you argue that we did the right thing by getting involved, tell us why, and what benefit we gained from being in the war. If you think we would have been better off just staying on the sidelines, tell us why, and what calamities we could have avoided by keeping our troops at home. Any answer is acceptable–just defend it.
