Why Not Globalize?

When reading/watching/listening to all the information on globalization, there was a generally negative feeling toward globalization. I can’t help but feel the opposite. It was globalization that has gotten us where we are today. If you think about it, it was other countries early globalization acts that created the United States. When America was first discovered, goods and weapons were exported from Europe to America in return for other things. During this process many people came to this country. Today, we continue to trade goods with countries and outsource a lot of jobs. Yes, we are losing jobs for people here, but we simply don’t have the materials/resources to do things like other countries can. Also, this trading creates bonds with these countries that we may not have otherwise.
