I hate Economics

  Everyone wants to succeed in this world and the only goal that anyone has is money. Many business owners will put there companies through whatever, just to benefit at the end. By changing businesses to make a profit, business companies must seeks worker who will work for close to nothing. This is where outsourcing and off-shoring comes in. My America outsourcing and off-shoring, it doesn't only have an affect on the jobs that are provided in America, but its hurts the culture of the countries that America turns to by economically, and physically changing that country, more American like.
  As I mentioned, I hate everything about economics and politics, however, the information about outsourcing and off-shoring is actually interesting and incredible. America, should be trying to help America by getting these people in this country jobs, and helping them pay there bills so that there wont be a need for Section 8, or the government giving people who cant afford to life and food for their children money. If the jobs in America wasn't decreasing, that wouldn't really be a problem. Again, the economy was down, and so were the jobs, but, "In the 21st century the US economy has only been able to create jobs in nontradable domestic services-the hallmark of a third world labor force" (Roberts). Hence, there is a failure going on in America. If we can not provide enough jobs in our country, how do we plan to succeed and strive in this competitive world?
 Do you think by clinging to other countries to do our work that  America seems somewhat needy? America looks as if we are depending on other countries to help us prosper when we are supposed to be such a strong individual country. "Outsourcing is rapidly eroding America’s superpower status." Superpower status it is called, we are a country of superpowers are we really? Not in superpowers literally, but we do have influence over a lot. For instance, why would other countries even let us in to make money off of there people? We are needy, but we have control. Also, by looking to other countries to profit off of, and bring American business into their countries, we are in fact changing that country. "US corporations justify their offshore operations as essential to gain a foothold in emerging Asian markets." We are influencing change in others countries markets, and we are changing their culture. These countries that we outsource in must now speak and understand English to communicate with the owners of the businesses, they must know how do things in an American way, so that this product or business can sell in America which it is meant for; it has to change for us.
 There is always meant to be a balance between the business world and the economy, or the business world and its employers. What it the balance that is portrayed between America and the countries that it outsource and off-shores with? There is no balance or sense of equality because the whole reason for America to outsource is so that they can cheat the countries that they outsource to and make a profit for themselves, "as time passed, however, a shift in the global labor pool took place, and countries like China, Taiwan and Bangladesh offered skilled services for a fraction of the costs of Mexican workers" (.outsourcingoffshore.us). No one is making the same amount or equal profit of this money and the only people that are benefiting from the businesses is America. The control that America has in ridiculous. We are robbing our people on our country of jobs, we are unfairly paying other countries for there work and we are also not even caring about equality or the balance and the profit that we have with the other countries. What a selfish country we seem to be..
  My view on outsourcing and off-shoring has incredibly changed. All the money that tax payers, pay a year that go to those that can't afford to live, but America isn't even giving them the chance since there is no market for jobs. We change the native cultures of countries by influencing them to think how we think and do what we do, so that in the end, we still come on top. We don't only affect our people, but the economy of America effects the whole entire world.

Tweet Tweet





























Reflection: I think that typing in tweets was like dangerous almost.. I mean I didnt know what words to use and what would be acceptable or if my point would be understood since I was like tweet talking. I mean I deff think that I this risk was like wow. I mean I'm tweeting yet trying to sound knowledgeable, like will that even be taken seriously? This project tested the rules of language, like totally badass. How can language be taken seriously in tweets or in emojis, or in code switching which isn't recognized by everyone? Its almost as if the questions is if language, can be language if it isnt written in the acceptable way that people see it today. Am I asking this question of language, representing the question or am I answering it?

Ukraine

  Everything going on in the Ukraine is definitely hard to avoid, within hours or tenths of minutes, new  news post are being published and other things just keep happening. BBC news and other new sources in AMERICA have been covering these happenings as they are going on, but the questions is really, what is America doing, sticking their big nose in Ukraine's and Russia's business?
  Ukraine is located between Europe and Russia, it is not a threat to the United States. The United States has no position in the Ukraine because their problem is a problem within their country. The fact the Ukraine is being split into two, where they are fighting with countries next to them is really not a big US problem at all. Think about it, it's not as if anyone is fighting with the a major US ally and it's all happening on the other side of the world. Since we are sponsoring and adding to all the conflicts by providing people with news and even being worried about it, in a big way, the Ukraine, Russia and even Europe might just turn all their attention to us, as if we are influencing the conflict or maybe even a supporting it, which I hope we aren't.
  The Ukraine news has been covering their stories, they even had Crimea as part of Russia, their news  that they have published has been copied and modified to be our news. maybe only difference is that their news is  actually worried about them. Tonight Obama said that there needed to be international monitors into all of the Ukraine, to make sure the rights or the Ukrainians are being respected. Not to sound mean, but why do we give two cow heads?! What does the rights of the Ukrainian people have anything to do with the rights if the people in the US? I'm pretty sure in the US there are tons of people whose rights are being walked on and yet he does not see that, I'm pretty sure many foul things are happening and will happen that will counter cross someone's rights, but you don't see Ukraine or China or even Obama worried about that now do you?!!!  Then the piece of the cake was when he ended and said, to be pierced up with our allies we will stand firm. If you are standing firm, and keeping a fair position it would be smart to not broadcast the news or even pay attention to it, yet we have our president talking about it and making such a big deal.
   I feel that if we had a crisis with Brazil or Portugal which is right under us, the Ukraine would mind their own business, and so would Europe and Russia. But wait, why would Russia starts problems knowing that they are holding the Olympics? Are they trying to kill us or have us bombed?  I say everyone stay to their own country and we'll be all fine!
