Disadvantages of Globalization

        Beloved readers, this week I'll present you, as an awsome (submissive, even!) student, a text on globalization. My english teacher has asked the whole class to do a text on that theme and me and Sara just though: “OMG what an amazing opportunity to gossip about some global news!”.

  Here's the result: she just wrote a text on some advantages of globalization and I'll present you another one, on its disadvantages, with my funny (or not)/ peculiar/ odd/ ironic and, most of all, personal opinion in which one of them!
 Here we go again (as our lovely Demi Lovato would say!)...3 disadvantages of globalization:

1. Economic Problems

 With globalization, the comparison of the world with a global village may have its negative side...If all nations depend on each other, some issue that affects one of them will obviously affect the other, especially when the matter is commerce and, therefore, money! This phenomenon is called the “domino-effect”!
 One famous “domino' piece” is belike Portugal's president of the republic, Cavaco Silva, who has said that, when retired from his functions, his retirement pension will not be enough to pay his bills!    Poor man...

  2. Increase in the consumption of junk food

 McDonalds and KFC are two examples of fast food chains that are spreading way too fast! The publicity campaigns and all the flavour boosters in this kind of food, as well as the relatively accessible prices, make it easy for people to “stoke” it, which has several negative impacts on their health.
 As a true follower of Hollywood celebrities' life, I may say, now that the media have commented enough and my comment will not sound that bad, that Christina Aguilera must have eaten so many veggies during her life that now she dies for McDonalds hamburgers with fries...or at least, is what recent photos of her make us think...

3. Unemployment

 Due to outsourcing, globalization is promoting unemployment, contradicting what most think, that this movement promotes employment...this happens especially in developed countries – many successful companies from the USA outsourced jobs to developing nations in Asia, for example.
 This is possibly the only explanaition for what happened with Winona Ryder. Hollywood must have been outsourcing  talents, when the very famous (and so, very rich!) actress was caught stealing over 6 thousand dollars in items from a luxury store in Beverly Hills!!

 It's now time to say goodbye, dear readers (correction: dear reader, Helena Rodeiro). Hope you liked and learned from my supposedly catchy text!


XOXO, Oh My Gossip!
