Globalisation

What's the sense of being global? What do people think of globalisation? We can say taht being global is to get the culture from around the world or just accept someone's way of life. Globalisation is, nowadays, also known as "americanisation", which means, the U.S. are imposing their culture to the rest of the world.
Poor countries are in disadvantage because of the cost of foreign products, which make national ones seem to cost the earth. Another strong point is the way fast-food corporations have grown in such a short time, and made the world's health quality ever worse.
People think that globalisation is a good thing to the world, even though it has been destroying their cultura. Some leaders say that globalisation does not affect their lives, but it depends on the way you look at it. People are being grounded by some others who don't care about how many lives are destroyed for them to get to the top of the world.
On the other hand lobalisation is not all that bad,m when any earth-shattering event happens, you can know all about it as quickly as you get your frozen food ready, by the Internet. Moreover, there are branded products, which in spite of the lower quality, are really cheaper.
There are some aspects of globalisation people like talking about, such as the variety of culture you can find in a single city. Although you can get any information, you cannot always trust it.
It is always important to keep our feet on the ground, otherwise we can get lost in the ever-changing world. The truth is, you must be careful of every piece of information or anything taht, by any chance, comes to you.
The point is that you must aways weight your priorities and pay attention to the world around you.
