Poverty cannot be avoided in the World. There is a balance between developing countries and developed countries. The World only has so many non-renewable resources. If developing countries because developed countries and poverty no longer existed, the world could never sustain that many people equally. Too many developed countries use up fossil fuels and other non-renewable resources. If a developing country became developed, it would have the same rate of use for non-renewable resources, and then there wouldn't be any left. Poverty is a horrible thing, and many countries can be helped. But, there will always be poverty in the World. This is a sad thing, but I do not see it possible for all countries to become developed. The birth rate is too rapid in developing countries and disease is too rampant.

I think that TNC's are good because they provide the World with communication which is important to maintain a global economy. I can also see how TNC's can be viewed as bad. They put a strain on our natural resources by killing many forests, and they create a lot of disease and pollution. Even though these things are true I still think that TNC's are good. Very few things in life provide something so imperative and important but have no environmental impact. One must weigh the effects to determine whether something is more hazardous than beneficial. But, in this case, I think that TNC's remain beneficial in creating global communication. Even though it may give us some things that are not important for our everyday life, it does provide us with safety, communication, and the things that we use in our daily lives. Some others may not depend so much on these things, but Americans do and there does not seem to be anything that provides with similar results that have any less of an environmental impact. So I believe that it is good even though I do think it is bad that it is harming the environment and creating other problems.
