the passage that Benjamin Barber wrote had a lot of key points but at the same time I feel that he could have wrote a little more on other aspects. For example when he started writing he started to talk about 9/11!!! Ok that’s good but I am tired of every writer in this book writing about 9/11 writers can compare other things to there passage as well. But with that said I feel that when barber was talking about other countries and the other ways that countries that have a lower income they get up everyday and trying to see how they can raise food to put on their table when other citizens in other countries are making food for decorations!!! Globalization, some of the challenges that I see as I read this book is not only do I see many wide out looks on other countries but I feel that me as a person that is reading this passage is showing me that many people in the world are ignorant to the other countries they have no idea what is going on in the low budget countries when the low budget countries no all about the high income countries. Some other realization that I learned is that I feel that the low budget countries are better off in the world because they show heart, leadership and pride at what they do and I feel as a united states citizen everything was handed to me but I never worked for what I really wanted and life but in the low budget countries they are working for what they want but they have no money, last but not least I feel the people that are striving for what they want in the other counties they are eventually going to have the same chances as me and many wide verities of individuals in many other weather countries.
