		<description>Great job so far Ed - keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing the final paper. Some things to think about as you continue writing:

You may not feel the tug of globalization yet, but what do you think it will be like in ten years? As you enter the job market? What if your job requires you to have knowledge of global culture? (After all, my Wife&#039;s dad owns a little construction company here in Indiana, but has to work with people outside the country all the time for supplies, etc)

You mention that we should not get involved in other countries, but what happens if we keep doing it? After all, our country seems to go to war every 10-15 years or so. What if oil prices keep going up because of the continuing wars? Does the individual citizen have a responsibility to hold their government responsible for this? 

How about if your local Congress person votes to go to war with Iran tomorrow - should average citizens get involved? What can we do?

I am curious what you think about these ideas. Thanks!</description>
