Module 6
Free trade is the
practice of international trade without interference of the government. This
also means no taxes or fees for the goods that are being traded. The author of
"The World is Flat" tells about a English economist named David
Ricardo who developed a theory on free trade that says that if a country only
export the items in which it specializes then by doing that all the countries
that export or import from other countries will make money and boost their own
economies together. I think free trade its important because its allowing us to
get products that maybe another country can make better at a better rate.
As is read in the book
the new middlers are the jobs whose workers will create the new middle class.
With the new technology a lot of jobs will soon become obsolete. The new
middlers skills are important and some of this skills include being
collaborators and orchestrators, being great synthesizers, great explainers,
great collaborators, great adapters and being green. Having one of these skills
is necessary but having all of them will get you success.
The equation
CQ+PQ>IQ means that Curiosity Quotient + Passion Quotient is greater than
Intelligent quotient. The author states that he would take a student with
passion and curiosity over one with intelligence because of their ability to
learn and create new outcomes. I agree with this statement, its very difficult
for me and a lot of people to understand something or feel good doing it if
they have no interest at all on what they are doing, It doesn’t matter if they
are smart or not. Its not the same doing something that you like that something
to get by. I also like how he says that with effort anything can be done no
matter the IQ that a person has.
