Yesterday I had you choose a global issue and you wrote about it on your blog. Today on your blog I want you to tell me about two different perspectives of your global issue. Are there people for an against your issue? Do people disagree on your issue? Is it a topic that can cause controversy? Look at the issue for two different perspectives. Tell me about those perspectives.
Oil Prices:
From the view of an American consumer, the low gas prices are amazing! We don't have to pay as much money for our gas and it is easier to fill up at the pump. It is also helpful for the entire economy because with the lowering in gas prices help the economy grow and be profitable. The consumer likes the lowering in gas prices even though they don't understand the economic war that is being waged on the United States.
From the view of a country in OPEC, the increase in production of oil is both damaging and helpful to them. For some nations, that don't have a large supply of capital, and who rely on high gas prices, are hurt by the low price of oil. But other nations, such as Saudi Arabia, are still managing with the low prices; these nations are benefiting because the fracking industry is being damaged by the low gas prices.
