If the LEDC had the high enough levels of development it could educate it population and these profit providing process could be taxed and boost the economy of the LDC to allow such infrastructure to grow. With low levels of infrastructure health care is not as available as in MEDC nations. This causes LDC nations to have lower life expectancies and be less productive due to being ill. In Sierra Leone high levels of AIDS/ HIV, approximately 49,000, and outbreaks such as the deadly Ebola Virus means little taxes can be taken as unemployment is high. As a consequence many LDC nations rely on foreign health and economic aid putting them in a situation of unrepayable debt, so even less money can be spent on infrastructure and supporting the economy.
Germany faced many problems such as unemployment, debt and lack of money. Construction of Autobahns and schools would have created many jobs and brought in a huge amount of money. This is exactly how Schacht planned to solve Germanys economic problems, with The New Plan. The New Plan consisted of four major parts (Limiting imports, Trade agreements, Government spending and tackling unemployment). However, Hitler was not happy with this as his spending on the military was being limited, which meant only a certain number of tanks/planes were being produced.
Figure 2 shows how developing countries such as Ghana and Colombia pay a lot more for their water meaning that a larger proportion of their income is spent on what is seen as the most basic resource. This can mean that for the poorer population water is sometimes unaffordable which puts their health at risk as they may seek water from contaminated sources; diseases like cholera are more likely to spread due to lack of clean water and due to lack of hygiene. Often in countries such as Ghana, the poorer population do not have access to running water in their homes and therefore have to walk long distances to collect water; this also highlights a poor quality of life. Due to high water costs, countries such as these are unable to use water for luxury purposes e.g. dishwashers and therefore water wastage is less likely.
Peru Illegal Drug involvement presumed 2nd largest Coca leaf producer in the world Need the jobs but cannot guarantee safety of workers Government involvement may cause unwanted issues Both of these countries are options to get good workers but neither have good options for safety where employees are concerned. Therefore the Zip 6 team has a lot of research to go over and will have to make a decision about which country they will actually enter.

The reason for why governments in developing countries sometimes are unable or unwilling to implement polices that create favorable conditions for economic growth boils down to two main reasons: social issues and political issues. Political issues are just as multifaceted as the social issues. Due to corrupt governments and regimes the lawlessness spreads throughout the developing nation like wildfire. Political issues revolve around the basic needs of a nation such as simple, yet, necessary infrastructure of schools, hospitals, septic tanks, etc. The necessity of public goods is vital for a developing country to survive, maintain, and become what we consider today, a developed country.
As shown in Source E, the people with more income are for getting rid of the penny, while the more poor people are against the abolishment. This is probably because the more upper class people do not have to pay for simple things with the pennies they find on the streets. Poorer people who make less than $25,000 a year obviously don’t have good jobs, probably not full coverage health insurance, and a lot of the time, have more children to take care of. Due to the insurance they have, their prescriptions and doctor co pays are very expensive. Penny pinching may be these deprived people’s only option in paying bills.
Nowadays, life expectancy in developing countries has been shockingly low and it is has become a subject that the whole world has become increasingly worried about, more so than ever. People need to know about the diseases that lurk the world. “For this to happen, help is needed across the world in breaking down all against barriers that make people second-class citizens and build a world where they can flourish” (Mitchell, 2009). There is more the one issue that has to be dealt with in order to gradually diminish the differences between the life expectancies of citizens in first world countries, in comparison to those in third world countries. For example, some differences are water and sanitation, diseases (such as HIV), medicine and medical treatment.
Shortage in drinking water is a major problem facing developing countries which have not taken drastic steps to harvest water and purify it to make it safe for human consumption. However, this problem is also being increasingly felt in developed countries where the population growth has strained available water resources and stretched the ability of governments and private firms to provide safe drinking water to the population. There are many conflicts around the world where people have died or have been injured as a result of clashes over a water resource. Most of these conflicts have occurred in Asia and Africa where most developing countries are located. When humans clash over resources, this underscores the seriousness of the issue and calls for drastic actions to be taken to solve the problem.
After that the essay goes into a more deeper problem that developing countries face and the solution, which is literacy rate of a country. And in the end a small conclusion is given for the reader to understand the discussion topic a little better. There are various reasons for the direct correlation between life expectancy and the development of countries. One of the most important reasons is the lack of access of proper water source, sanitation and hygiene. They constitute to 9.1% of the global disease in the world and aroung 6.3% of all the death cause in developing countries
Countries whose economies depend on petroleum will be desperate and will need to rearrange the whole country. On the other hand countries like Colombia with a wide range of natural resources will become more important in the world economy. Countries with good technological advance in renewables will become also crucial to face the problem. Regions dependent on the resources of other countries will deal with the crisis, not only because of the lack of energy, but also because of the lack of food, water, medicine , etc. that they will not receive because of the absence of means to transport those
