So Many Cars


            Today in Human Geography class we talked with Mr. Schick about car companies, jobs, and countries, and how all these things can affect us. Car companies in China and lower wages in China means people in America can get cars for cheaper prices. Although this can be seen in a good point of view, many Americans are losing their jobs to Chinese people who will work for about an eighth of the price for a day that the American workers made in an hour. Meanwhile China is also growing and expanding its amount of cars and highways. China will soon overtake the United States in the next ten years in the amount of cars and highways in the world. The only bad thing is, not many Chinese know how to drive, have a car, or even have the money for a car. Another factor is the amount of car crashes the Chinese deal with and how they settle it. Most car crashes end up with a direct payment from one side of the crash. Who knows what China will end up like with even more jobs and cars joining in.
