  1. well if you're reffering to

    Iraq-a very large oil dosage to the U.S. from a country with a pretty weak government and little to no power.

    China-Many toys, t.v. shows, and even apple juice.

    Egypt- cotton which helps make Towels, clothes, bed sheets, etc.

    Mexico-burritos and taccos

    Italy-PIZZA!!!!


  2. IT GIVES US CHEAPER JUNK TO BUY SO THAT THAT KEEPS THE CYCLE GOING. HENRY FORD COINED A PHRASE 'PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE'. THERE'S WHERE WE ARE GOING.

    LIKE A DRUG DEALER WILL GIVE A FREE SAMPLE IN HOPES THAT YOU BECOME HIS FUTURE BUYER. CHINA IS GIVING WHAT WE WANT SO THAT ONE DAY RED CHINA CAN SUDDENLY SAY GIVE US THE MONEY YOU OWE US.

  3. Here in Mexico, we can enjoy American hamburgers with fries, and watch junk movies from blockbuster, munching our American snack.

    all the big corporations have presence in Mexico, so

    I do not understand why is  king dumbya building a fence to divide us! That's uthopic!

  4. Benefits to Americans and the other countries:

    1. Cheaper products, like 99 cent Wal-mart toys

    2. Provides jobs, however horrible, to people in other countries

    3. Promotes trade alliances and creates an economic dependency on behalf of both countries, meaning they are less likely to blow each other up.

    Disadvantages to Americans and the other countries:

    1. Outsourced labor, meaning fewer jobs in America

    2. Local economy suffers, putting local businesses out of business

    3. Wealth is not distributed where it needs to be. It circulates in the hands of the government and the corporations, instead of being filtered back down into the local economy

    Think of it this way....anytime you buy something cheap from Wal-Mart....that savings has to come from somewhere. It obviously didn't come from the kindness of the company's heart, which means it comes from wages. Cheaper labor=lower production costs which means they can sell it cheaper and retain the same profit. The only place to find the cheap labor force is illegal immigrants and migrant workers, or outsourcing to another country. People there are desperate to work and will take anything. Americans are concerned with minimum wage and thus won't take a low paying job, which results in them losing their job.

    If companies were required to pay fair wages to all their workers regardless of location or immigrant status, it would eliminate a lot of the problem. They wouldn't be outsourcing as much, and jobs could stay in America.
