How Globalizatio
n Affects the
U.S.Student: Restoring the true Meaning of
EducationE-mail:
Here are some problems.
American jobs are going overseas.
We are becoming dependent on other countries.
U.S. Child Labor laws and the unions are contributing to higher prices of products; making us less competitive in the world.
Other countries can’t afford the higher cost of the American products.
U.S. does not impose tariffs on China’s products.
China is taking over the world’s economy.
Autarchy means that the U.S. would isolate itself from the world’s economy, which would make the products’ price increase.
The U.S. is part of the global economy, and
can’t isolate itself from the rest of the world.
Here are some solutions!
Buy things that were made in the U.S. or even better—your own state!
Advertise more on locally made products.
The U.S. needs to get other countries to agree to have a fair trade policy with us.
We need to work together.
Put tariffs on imports.
Put a quota on imports.
Don’t shop at Walmart.
Check the labels to see the country of origin of the product.
Companies shouldn’t put imports on their shelves.
Globalization is appealing because people can purchase products at a lower price.
Globalization creates specialization because a country has a tradition in manufacturing a certain product-- more efficiently, less expensive, and higher quality than anywhere else in the world.
Therefore, these countries become well known around the world for manufacturing a certain product, and need less advertising.
India is well known for it’s textile industry, manufacturing high quality cotton apparel.
Countries can use resources specific to their unique location and climate that we wouldn’t otherwise have.
South Africa is well known for their high quality diamonds that can’t be found anywhere else in the world.
The U.S. can’t impose on other countries to change their trade policy because of sovereignty.
Globalization can offer products at a lower price, but the down side is that if our jobs go overseas, then we wouldn’t be able to afford any of these low price products.
The U.S. should negotiate with other countries to change their trading policy; to ensure that it is equally advantageous for everyone.
Do your part, and buy American made products!
