Why Your Tablet is Part of A Global Economy

While, I was searching for Youtube videos about repairing a tablet, I came across several videos that provided several perspectives on “Made in China”. It was interesting to know that some Chinese workers live, have kids, and even get married in towns that are built specially for manufacturing. Those economies survive solely on offshoring (https://youtu.be/WlSHo61nRWw). I also gained insight on how American and Chinese economies are affected. For example, workers in China explained that they cannot afford some items that are exported.  While, workers in America explained that they do not have enough skills to reenter the job market, as a result of offshoring. In addition, I learned that “If Americans spent an additional $3.33/year on US products, it would result in 10,000 jobs (https://youtu.be/7AlexLrZ14A).” It was fascinating to learn how my tablet is a part of a global economy.
