Human Rights: Trafficking of women and children and forced child labor
I am against all kinds of trafficking. It is the most common illegal slavery world-wide and it is considered to be similar as slavery. The reason being, the being who are being trafficked are held bondage and the businessperson takes one's identity away by taking their visas away from them. They get little or no pay without consent of that person. This as well is a morally wrong thing to do. A family member should not sell their children to pay off a debt or a bill. People should sell one's body because every ones' bodies are all valuable as a human and no one should degrade them. On a business person side, it is immoral of them to make a person to degrade one's body even if its a way of living. There are other careers in the world that they can do besides doing living in an illegal way. Being threatened to sell one's body is depressing. No human should treat another human like that and no human should go through that. Human trafficking is taking one's human rights away from them. If a person is not willing to do something and its forcing them upon to do something then it is invading their personal space. Everyone should respect one's personal space and not invade it. Here are the reasons why the business people should go to prison for the rest of their lives:
1. invading people's bodies and controlling them
2. selling one's body when it is not there's
3. taking away one's identity
4. illegal slavery ( banned in the constitution)

Blog 3
What do you think is happening with the stock market and the global economy? What is going to happen with the American election? Are either of these two current events connected? Predict the future: what is going to happen next?
The stock market is severely going down and this is not helping the economy. The stock market is not in a good place in this time period and it is affecting the people greatly in a negative way. Fears about the global economy slowing down is affecting the U.S economy by having people loose their jobs as well. This will result into majority of the people to spend less on things and that as well will affect real estate, car companies, and other similar companies. As you can see this all ties down into recession as a whole. The national debt affects everybody one way or another. Personally, I think the solution is to end the war because we cannot afford the war with the nation in debt. All these factors are causes from the war itself. Globally, it affects the other countries because we are borrowing a lot of money from other countries such as China. It would be better if we weren't dependent on other countries because we would not be in a national debt crisis. The American election plays a big part in the stock market and the global economy, because each candidate has a different solution on the national debt. McCain wants the war to continue and take the 700 billion bail out and stop giving money to organizations that he think are not important while Obama thinks that we can't afford the war and should pull the soldiers out and that will help solve the national debt. If McCain is president we will still be dependent on other countries and still continue to be in debt and on the other hand, if Obama will be President, he will slowly pull out the soldiers and as he promise, to not be dependent on other countries so we will not be in debt.

Pre-Writing for W.A #2
My pre-writing is about why globalization globalization threatens the cultural rights and identities of less-powerful countries.
Globalization harms cultural traditions in some countries. For instance, when I go on vacation I expect to eat their country's food and not Americanized food. When people were telling me that they went to China and was excited to eat real Chinese food,but all they saw were fast food places such as McDonalds. People, such as myself, would like to experience their countries' culture background. The faster growing countries such as America and some parts of Europe globalize around the world making some Countries loose their identities. This hurts countries' economy as well. The less-powerful countries, mainly third-world countries, struggle with businesses and when globalization comes to their country it puts a negative affect on them. This will lead to more poverty and making the middle-class have an impact on the scale resulting to just have the higher and lower class. Globalization can have a positive effect and as well as a negative effect but personally it is not worth taking the risk for the people who do get a good thing out of it. Helping a bussiness globalize will leave a group of people with economical problems. The American media exposes their entertainment to countries such as Europe leaving culture industries out of business. Not only the business will fall but the culture will be lost as well. Globalization destroys certain cultures leaving them with American imperialism. For instance, the Canal Cafe in China is a historical place but the umbrellas in the cafe has an advertisement for the Budweiser. This destorys the historical feeling in the cafe. Historical places should be left alone so people can remember their culture. Globalization wont allow the future generations to know their heritage and have a feel for it.
