Today in Human Geography class we continued to watch the video
about China. Previous to watching this video, I didn’t really like the country
of China. I thought they were “Stupid” communists who sole purpose as a country
was to steal American Job’s and to control all of our trade. I honestly
believed that that they were “out to get us”. But after watching this video I
was faced with some facts. China has a very large work-force. Most of these
people are very, very poor. They are willing to work for any amount of money. There
is no such thing as a “union” in China. Americans however work for at LEAST
7.50. And they expect health benefits, good working conditions and reasonable
working hours. But in China, workers are paid 1-5 dollars a day. No Benefits,
no good working conditions and extreme working conditions. What makes it better
for companies is the fact that Chinese workers don’t complain. There is a very
large work force. So if one worker complains, just fire them. There are A LOT of
people who want their job. That is what I understand about the Country of
China. Now I understand why companies outsource our jobs.
That is what was “revealed” to me during class today.
