Session 3

Good class discussion, though I thought the most interesting thing was someone again saying that world economies crossing national borders encourages peace. This is an old theory that was debunked in the early twentieth entury as a dangerous belief. Multinational companies that truly ooperated more multinational than most companies today proliferated Europe throught the first few decades of the Century andeven earlier, yet it increased the grand sale of the conflict. This is confirmed over and over again. It is atually easier to argue that trade causes wars, like would we have attacked Iraq in the early 90's without trade, why not Rawanda. Trade causes wars in some cases, though it has never stood up that trade stops war. Increased Democracy, yes and an increased standard of living probably, but the economy being trusted to stop wars has killed millions, and is hopefully not something we will keep stock in.

Class 2

Not much to report since the last class. Their was a good discussion about what companies want in leaders. Most of them are obvious, but a lot of people need reminders of seemingly obvious things, and it was good to see what was considered most important.

Day 1

Against all my better judgement I have a class that requires me to create a blog. We will see how I will do at responsibly writing this, and keeping things good, yet unenticing. It isn't that I believe they are bad, just that they can be. I have known three people to lose their jobs beause of them and two who made it to the front page of nearly every major newspaper in the country because of them. I am pretty sure I will avoid those people's fates, but it will be a fun experiment.
