9/10

Today in class we talked about how English is the international language of business which I think is really cool because it is the language that I speak which means you can also communicate with lots of other people without having to learn a new language. Another thing that we talked about is how in Maryland we might change the minimum wage from $7 per hour and change the minimum wage to be $10 per hour which would effect us in a major way.This could turn out to be a bad and good thing for us, it would be a good thing because we would all start getting a lot more money for our hour but it would also effect us in a bad way because now they would lay off or fire a lot of workers to make up for all the money being lost. A third thing we talked about is how people from other countries are starting to take our jobs because they have started working for a lot less money then we do, and that is why a lot of or clothes are from other countries as well. These things I found really interested during our discussion in class today.
