WHAT DOES HAWAII HAVE TO OFFER?

Why Hawaii: Background  Location, location, location  Missionaries  Money interests  Sugar trade – plantation owners white Americans Independent monarchy The native people

One early visitor described...  The ease with which the Hawaiians on their own land can secure their food supply has undoubtably interfered with their social and industrial advancement.... [It] relieves the native from any struggle and unfits him for sustained competition with men from other lands. The fact that food is supplied by nature takes from the native all desire for the acquisition of more land. Today's food can be had for the picking, and tomorrow's as well. Instead of grasping all he can get, he divides with his neighbor, and confidently expects his neighbor to divide with him.

How the US Takes Hawaii: Background Americans dominate economy & government Build plantations, warehouses, railroads, banks, hotels, stores, et cetera Dominated Hawaii’s legislature and cabinet!
