    I love CrashCourse so much, from the profound and thought provoking conclusion of every video to how you guys can turn cookie monster into an incredibly accurate metaphor for globalisation. It's fantastic. DFTBA.

    Crash Course may be the greatest contribution to education! Why can't "education" realize this? After nearly a century of monochromatic handouts, boring lectures from teacher-centered classrooms and an attempt to transfer concepts that have little to no relevance to students...now we just "flip" it. Certainly it's now much more exciting to watch it all on your own time at home. I would much rather be watching Crash Course! Go John Green!

      Funny how they always celebrate the replacement of western countries demographics by focusing on the "diverse culinary cuisine." It's the corporations that rule the world and are behind globalization for sustained profits in a debt based fiat currency system. We'll see how they handle the next global crash around 2025 and jobs are scarcer.

Watching them is one of my favorite things to do to pass the time and I tell my family and friends about them too. You all absolutely rock, keep up the good work. That is all.

    Thank you John Green, and everyone at Crash Course. I've enjoyed your entire World History lesson (except for the last episode) and can't wait to see the others. I must say, the end of this episode made me feel quite uplifted as both a human and a parent.Thank you for your optimism, even though there are many things currently happening that leave pause for concern. You really are changing both knowledge of world events AND perception. You guys are truly awesome!

      Why are you thanking him for using a word that's not used by the majority American audience to describe what he was describing? Our most popular sport is football, so calling soccer football here is just confusing. Why do you want to use the confusing word over the non-confusing word?

I also liked your repeated emphasis on the good effect of globalization, -despite of the many disastrous consequences-, it has also brought people out of poverty... 600 million?? interesting fact.

    As someone who doesn't speak English as a first language and live in Europe, I can only say that the fewer languages we as a species speak is only good.
    Communication is vital and we're advanced enough for the time being to preserve languages as cultural historical pieces to be researched and analyze. Whether the world will be speaking English or Chinese in another 150-years or so is only a good thing.

    • @MsHShuaib
      @MsHShuaib 10 лет назад +25

      I think multi-lingualism is good. Studies show bilingual and multilingual people have faster reaction times and have more benefits as well. They also tend to be better at swicthing tasks and multi-tasking.

    • @blodstainer
      @blodstainer 10 лет назад +2

      Shuaib Hussain Studies that are drawing different non-relating subjects to non-relating conclusions are usually nefariously misleading

    • @MsHShuaib
      @MsHShuaib 10 лет назад +1

      Bloodstainer Not unless you can prove it. If they have established causation (I don't know if they have), then you have to prove that they are misleading.

    • @blodstainer
      @blodstainer 10 лет назад

      Shuaib Hussain Except there is no proof any studies have been made in the first place.
      He did not credit any sources, or references pointing towards either the investigation or the study itself.
      Just stating Studies shows will not make it true, and in most cases multilingual people don't define themselves via their experience in several languages, every European except for the native English speaker should in theory be multilingual and I doubt that would make the brits have among the worse multi-tasking capabilities... I'd say that award goes to the Germans who lost two world war on two fronts in succession.
      Now that's bad multi-tasking :P
      Jokes aside, I would like to examine the study and the reason I doubt it is because reaction time is a skill just like any other (with some biological advantage-points,) and like any other skill it can be trained. If you want to learn how to swim you swim, you don't eat fish, just because good swimmer generally eat fish doesn't link the two together, and just like people with god reaction time got good reaction time from practice, they did not learn it by speaking a second language.

Dayum, that propaganda is TOO stronk."

    Economic globalisation works when everyone plays by the rules. The market needs to be free, but also fair. China is 'stealing' US jobs because firms don't have to pay their employees much over there, so they all pack up and produce their product in China and then sell it back to the US. Trump wants to tariff these products as a way of stopping firms from leaving in the first place. This shouldn't have to happen. If China and everybody else played by the rules, then the global economy should sort itself out. China will still take some industries if they are better at it or can produce cheaper, but this also allows for the US and other countries to do the exact same. As long as every country plays fairly.

      well cost of living is also lower over there so what is a living wage in china isnt necessarily what is going to be a living wage in the America

    • @SauceApple51
      @SauceApple51 8 лет назад

      Cost of living in China is only lower because they are used to buying so little because of how poor they are. Americans may buy $150 worth of food for a week and eat all of it (because they have that privilege) meanwhile Chinese may buy $20 worth of food and eat all of it and still survive. The cost of living should be the same for everyone because everyone should be living by the same standard.

      I get your point, but you also have to think about how another country's prosperity can effect the world. We are all so interconnected and inter twinned that if we try to isolate our selves, world trade will start to topple.

    Globalisation benefits for rich countries. Where as Poorer Countries get even poorer. Is this good? And should businesses grow with cheap labour? Is it right? For example in Bangladesh, most garment workers get paid around 14 dollars a week. Unbelievable! Honestly, globalisation needs to be changed a bit so no country loses and everyone gains.

      That is categorically false. Trade by nature benefits both parties involved, otherwise it would not happen. Specialization due to trade bolsters global and local economic efficiency, allowing a greater total worldwide product. Consumers lose purchasing power in exporting countries, and producers lose profit in importing countries, but as long as the trade remains roughly symmetrical (one side does not experience heavy taxes that the other does not), both countries experience significant surplus overall.
