If Imperialization is: a policy of extending a country's power and influence through diplomacy or military force;-->What are some examples of how Capitalism & corporate economics (Walmart/Walgreens/Target, etc) is creating challenges in your own island, community, state, nation that relates to this UN Goal / Issue? Instead of them buying products from our island, they buy it from third world countries who barely get paid. This creates a issue for us, because they are not buying products in the US which don't benefit our economy. Walmart barley pays their employees any good so they ar making profit with little cost. -->Why is this something to consider: Do you see a specific (friends or family you know) with a personal connection to these issues that connect with poverty or other social challenges (and please try to find at least one) - what/who is it and why? This is something to consider because it will screw with our money we make being a part of the US. If anything being aware of this is good because you don't want to contribute to this cause. -->What, if anything, are you learning about how economic trends impact your Global issue and how has your understanding of the impacts of it perhaps influenced the way you see your group topic as a worthwhile challenge or problem to be addressed? Now that I am aware of what capitalism means. I can finally connect the dots on how it impacts us. Honestly, it impacts us in a bad way because walmart for example depends on third world countries cheap labored products to sell.
