First of all, From Dow’s performance, sales of chemicals and metals including the ethylene sales increases 7% in 1994, and then 34% in 1995. Sales of Plastics including polyethylene increase 22% in 1994, and 28% from in 1995.This high growth rate especially in 1995 attributes mostly to the high growth in European market (33%) and rest of the world (24%). Also, the demand for polyethylene in Latin America is expected to triple in next ten years. With a globally expanding market, Dow has to increase its capacity to at least maintain its market share. An acquisition seems to be a good way to increase its production capacity.
Week #3 Essay ETH/125 By: Laura Aller 11-26-2011 In my opinion I believe that the only immigrants that should be preferred are the ones that have made the decision to come to the United States of America legally. The immigrants that are preferred would be the individuals that have actually invested time, and money into traveling into the United States of America, and are also trying to become a legal citizen. Instead of these immigrants trying to get away with everything, and not having to do anything for anyone, they just end up getting a free ride because they are immigrants. I believe that if I were trying to immigrate to the United States of America, I would definitely want to prove, and provide references showing that I can work hard
Jeff Bone Professor Rick Keith SLS 1122 March 24, 2009 Opposite Paper I really think that the issue of immigration should be handled like this; if you’ve been waiting patiently for access to the United States then you should be able to legally reside in this Country. However, many unbeknownst circumstances are involved in which an immigrant may be on the run from the law in their country and has to take immediate action. This individual decides that the United States is the safest way for them to escape without being caught, figuring he will just get a change of name so that he will not be discovered. This person brings his family along with him and then all of a sudden there is not only one outlaw immigrant, but now there is an entire
Alex Thomas Macroeconomics What are the costs and benefits of economic growth to a developing country? In recent years many countries, such as Brazil, India and china are rapidly developing and are experiencing a very high level of economic growth, while economic growth has its many benefits, to both the government and the general population, it also has several considerable negative impacts in the long term, which could lead to an unstable economy in the future if it is mismanaged. One example of how economic growth can benefit the economy is that living standards generally improve, this is because when an economy encounters rapid growth, there is a significant increase in the amount of services and goods produced, therefore the average standard of living will increase. As an economy grows, the average annual earnings increases, for an example India’s annual growth in real GDP in 2000 was only 5.5%, and by 2010 it was 10.4%. As well as increasing living standards, it also benefits the government, as they will see an increase in revenue collected in income tax.
When foreigners immigrate to the USA, it’s usually solely to make a better life for their family. Lastly, many complain that immigrants come over to the USA and take “our” jobs, but that is not true at all. Immigrants almost all the time take jobs that Americans don not want. Colonists immigrated to the United States voluntarily; they helped mold this country to be what it is today. Colonists put laws and rules into play to create the law and political system we have today.
They can ground us, make us do chores, take away our transportation/ social life, give us extra homework, longer and harder project. The government has the power to take away anything they please and enforce any rule they want without us as teenagers having a say so. We as teenagers believe we should have the right to take control of our lives, as well as our future. To show what
Some might say that immigration is a huge problem in the US, and others might say that it is a positive thing and that immigrants are needed. Barack Obama himself picks out a few good reasons that make immigration a positive thing. “It is this constant flow of immigration that helps to make America what it is” Obama says this, with the following facts that; Google Inc. would not be American if it was not for the immigrant who founded it, the scientific breakthroughs by Albert Einstein who also immigrated into America would not either, and then
Companies can grow faster in a developing country than they can in a MEDC which has more competition, and with company growth comes increased investment from the company in machinery and workers, which increases consumption and an increased level of employment, who work for the company. This initial entrepreneurship leads to a multiplier effect with the new workers spending their income, due to increased disposable income and this leads to greater consumption from the workers. The investment into machinery and workers leads to an increased gross domestic product, the value of output from domestic based companies. Foreign investors would be attracted to the developing country due to the high rate of economic growth and the increasing GDP, and the investment comes as an injection into the circular flow of income, and increased foreign investment can further increase the speed of growth for a company, possibly allowing the company to expand to other nations in the long run. The increased entrepreneurship
The Effect of Immigration on the UK Labour Market and Economy Immigration is defined as the process wherein a person or group of persons leave their original country of residence and move to another in order to work or reside. The UK economy has been one of the fastest growing economies of its period which was one of the reasons why it attracted as many immigrants as it did. Considering that a majority of the immigrants are workers, it is logical to conclude that they would have had a significant impact on the labour market. This essay attempts to prove that the influx of migrants has had a positive effect on the UK economy and labour market.

I live in a neighborhood that consists of illegal immigrants as well as other cultures. Our borders of the United States join other countries. Our United States are made up of immigrants coming from other countries to prosper and escape persecution from their native lands. Are we becoming too proud to open our doors to the people trying to better their lives or are we being closed minded to others who need our help. The illegal immigrants that are already here and have begun their lives here should be able to stay without persecution from our government and be offered immunity to stay here as an American citizen and live the life they choose to live.
