Today in class (day 51)

Today in class we were watching part three of the peoples republic of capitalism video. It was very interesting and i learned a lot of new info from it. I learned that in China a lot of traffic and car accidents happen each day. This is because more and more people in China are starting to own cars for the first time. People in the United States usually own their first car or are able to drive a car by the time they are about eight teen and the people in China are just learning how to drive a car in their thirties or forties. The problem with this is they do not have a lot of experience and they do not know what they are doing. Also, at the rate at which China is putting cars on the road daily, if this continues to increase, then they will have more cars on their roads in the near future then the United States total. Also, the movie taught about the importance of buying US products versus Chinese. Then Mr. Schick told us about the project we were going to be doing which is either influencing the citizens of the United States to buy from the US companies or to buy cheaper from foreign or Chinese companies for less money.
