Answer 1

It all just depends on your standpoint.

Step-by-step explanation:

If I was James Madison, I would declare war against France. They were seizing ships meaning that it stops the trade plus no new supplies come in.

Not to mention, if you declare war on two countries, it'll be a stressful time to send out more troops to both countries to fight. More men may lead to more death.
