POST 1

What is the most important world issue and why?

I believe the most important world issue is disparity. This is such a significant issue because billions of people world wide are suffering. Big corporations such as Apple locate their job sites in places like China where they can pay a very minimal amount of money where as if they located jobs in a more developed area they would have to pay more; meaning less income for the company. This feeds a cycle of poverty in some of these regions. By distributing money more evenly throughout the globe would arise many opportunities for less developed county's. Allowing them to build schools, create jobs and send children to school. Children in these under developed country's who then have the opportunity to get an education. As you can see, it would create a snowball affect pulling the country out of poverty.
