Globalization

I believe the positive aspects of globalization outweigh the negative aspects. I think that people who look on it as negative focus to heavily on our own nation and do not look at the prosperity of the foreign nations. By having large corporations established in foreign countries it has boosted the standards of living for those poor foreigners. We look at the negatives of using foreign labor and how they pay their workers so little but these small wages are greater than seen in previous years. They simply just don’t meet the standards we are accustomed to.  I think some of the people who are complaining about the injustice to human rights involved with foreign multinational companies are people who have comfortable living standards and look upon the foreign labor wages as inhumane, when they should really be looked at as beneficial.

I disagree with the No supported article read in class that states that the U.S. cannot handle being a super power in a globalized nation.  It is true we cannot handle everything but this should not be a means of going against globalization as a whole. It should be a reason to try to even the playing field further and distribute the wealth.
