Extension on video

Today in human geo class we just went on with the video we were watching the other day. Today we learned about the lady again on how she didn't think it was fair that her job was taken away, but she still went to walmart because stuff was cheaper there, however if people like hers jobs were never moved to China then there would not be that much cheap stuff in America. In class we also learned about interdependence. Interdependence is when every country, in this case, relies on each other or they wouldn't be able to operate the way they are use to operating. An example of this is how America depends upon China to have their workers work for next to nothing to keep the products we sell here in America a lot cheaper. While China is dependent upon America to first of all have the supplies to provide them with and also to have America buy all the products in which China makes to sell. Then we also have Mexican Migrant workers who come to the U.S. and are willing to do all the hard work for a long period of time that Americans are too lazy to do for that pay amount. They are hardworking people who buy cheap stuff and work hard in America to do the dirty work.
