Need of Strong Infrastructure
With globalization taking hold among most nations, it is important for those authorities that govern those nations can withstand the policy and other important changes that must be made in order to accommodate the rapid change. If nation's governments are not prepared to handle the changes that need to be made, the economies can actually suffer from globalization. Education is important to being able to help other countries adapt to the global climate in trade and polices. After these countries are able to withstand the shocks that globalization can bring to economies, they can benefit tremendously allowing their economies to grow. With everyone being on the same page it is easier to have peaceful trade and growth for the world. With more growing stable economies, the better help they can bring to underdeveloped nations that cannot support themselves. Every nation has positive benefits to bring to the global market that will help innovative the world. Global collaboration can bring ideas into new markets making them more creative allowing advancements that add stability and opportunities for the future.
Christmas Time
With the economy struggling to keep epmloyment rates high, many people have lost their jobs and will not be able to afford much, let alone Christmas. Since payrolls are tight and revenues low, jobs have been lost leaving families broke or budgets beyond tight. Maybe you know someone who has recently lost their job and heard their pain. For those of us who are fortunate to have a job and nice living need to step up at times like these and help our communities. Help them provide food, clothes, and possible even shelter if needed. The joy and help that you can bring these people will not only give you satisfaction, but can change peoples lives. Find good programs that are taking donations and food to help provide these struggling families to have a nice Christmas. Those families will remember the help you gave them, and will be more than thankful for letting them take their mind of the expenses for the holidays.
Get with the Program
Many nations are suffering from not opening up their economy to global trade. Their barriers to entry strain their countries of prosperity. America and many other nations have benefited from using globalization to make their economies expand and give their inhabitants more opportunities. Also it brings struggling economies to bring more jobs and higher wages to have a more stable environment. In America, capitalism has shaped our nation to be a leader in the global financial markets. Even though our deficit is enormous, we are a key player in global trade and investments, and can help influence other nations to trade. When economies become more open, capital flows through nations because of competitive advantages, allowing benefits for everyone. Nations who cannot tap into globalization will fall behind and will not be able to hang with nations that are growing at exponential rates by opening their economy.

Choices
In America, we have opportunities approach us every day that could help change our lives in a better way. Unfortunately, opportunities come in all shapes and sizes, and many times are not taken advantage of. We need to take time to seek out things that could better our lives, and the world we inhabit. People come from all over the world to America so they can escape their countries to seek the beneficial opportunities America offers. Instead of going through the motions day to day, take advantage of the knowledge the world holds and find ways to challenge yourself to answer the vast problems that arise daily from it. Just by taking the extra time to find new ways to be innovative, your life can change positive exponentially. Always remember to challenge yourself to make the world you live in a better place. Much joy can be found just by taking advantage of your time to shape the world you live in the future.

Technology
Technology has helped our nation become more productive and efficient. It has helped pushed in an era where information can be accessed easily and from multiple sources. This helps build education and helps economies grow at a faster rate. When technology is applied to industries at large, great things can happen. Many task that use to take hours, days, or even years to complete, can now be completed in a much time efficient manner. Every aspect of the American life has been touched by the rapid advancements in technology and has made a better quality of life for everyone. Many developing countries would think some of our technological advancements are from another world compared to their own status. The problem exists when these countries cannot afford the technology to help them grow and they get left behind and will continue to be left in the shadows while the super nations become even more advance. Allowing some of these countries access to the superb technology we have, could help foster a stabilized country with access to all things we enjoy now that have become necessities.

Poverty and Wealth
Poverty is present today and continues to grow. As wealth is created among the richest, the gap between the rich and poor are spread apart further. Luckily in America, we have the government's social safety net programs to aid poverty and eliminate absolute poverty. Third world countries who lack the help to get out of poverty, stay in poverty, as the world continues growing. It is sad to see the extreme wealth that is in America and look across the globe and see starvation, disease, no shelter, no technology, and the list could go on and on. Middle and Low class citizens experience extreme financial difficulties, but it is nothing like the those of other countries. Taking for granted the roof above our heads, the food we have access too, and the quality of life can happen everyday. As we go about our busy lives we sometime forget to stop and think about what we have.

Access to Education
Having the access to general education and higher education has a big impact on the growth of individuals and societies. Education is important to making decisions that impact our life in important ways. Health, social, and intellectual choices are few of those decisions that are directly linked to education. In order to understand certain things about our world, bodies, and social being we must be taught or educated to help grow in those areas. Without the access to schools and universities, the economic surroundings are affected negatively and can be plainly seen by the environment in which they inhabit. Health will be poor in most of the area due to the lack of medical facilities and doctors; also the affordability of medicine can cause health problems to persist. Crime can occur because of the poverty in the area. Those areas will not thrive unless they have access to proper education that allows them to grow as an individual to help better themselves and the world.
