"American Problems" by Theodore Roosevelt is a compilation of writings presenting the author's perspective on important national matters during the early 1900s. The writings tackle subjects like trade taxes, country living, and changes to the government. Roosevelt uses these essays to start a national discussion about the difficulties America faced and how to solve them for growth and togetherness. The book examines how small countries are run and whether some might need outside help for things to get better while pointing out how selfish laws can cause problems, so Roosevelt asks for political changes to make Congress more honest. Roosevelt underlines how important rural life is, supporting better living conditions and acknowledging farmers' needs by looking at historical growth in America by promoting ethics when dealing with issues like import taxes, pushing for equitable and fair economic rules that help everyone.
