A short response

The idea of globalization doesn't t have to be has scary as it seems. Before I knew of the word or the concept of the globalization  I  had the idea that a world without countries or boundaries could be a great thing. Done right it would eliminate war it could end poverty and dare I say we would be able to achieve world peace, whatever that means. But with capitalism as the major force of globalization it seems that those ideals are nearly impossible. Imagine a word where we all shared the same ideals. But when money is the truth behind this idea, it seems those ideals can never be achieved. Capitalism is all about competition, and a world built on competition might as well be a world with countries ,boundaries and borders.
