People's concerns depend on the success of whatever they do economically, and what they forsee in the future. For Edson, he may be thriving at the current moment, but he also prepares for when sales will not be booming.

Globalization has caused Judy's factory to relocate. In Malaysia, labor is much cheaper making making migration for the company the better choice as it decreases expenses, and increases profits. However, this fails to account for the individual people in the U.S that rely on these jobs to support families. For Judy, her concern is that she loses her only job and would require a entirely new job outside of her field of expertise. Yet for the person Judy, they would be much happier as new jobs open up.

Because of the economic change,  the US headquarters are changing locations to China where the income is higher. This is difficult because for Vicky to keep her job, she would need to move for China.
Vicky has created opportunities for herself with economic globalization by becoming advanced in this particular job that she gets to travel for, and she is a very "proficient worker and fluent in Chinese" which allows her to have these opportunities to grow in her field.

I think that jobs and money are one of the major concerns across the country because a lot of people are losing their jobs. Cheaper labor costs and factories puts people out of work which causes an increases in struggling people. Money seems to be the biggest similarity across the globe.

Karl is like Edson, a farmer. They both are worried about what their future holds because if they have no profits coming in, they will have nothing to do, they will struggle. For farmers, they need to maintain constant supply of their crops or whatever they may be growing because they can't risk going out of business. I think that for farmers the most similar concern they have in common is failure / no customers.

The economy in the US is being battered by international trade, and many American workers are losing their jobs to international labor and low trade costs. This includes Al. People in other countries providing those labor costs might have work, but they would work for an extremely low cost, and it wouldn't be able to provide them with the sustenance they need to survive. These two are similar because both do not have the ability to make more money in their current position, and only through government intervention or extreme entrepreneurship could they start to better their financial standings.

I feel like even though mahesh has a very high paying stable job because of international trade, he still has to provide for his extremely poor family in the rural areas of india. So even though he makes a lot of money, most goes into his children's tuition and his families expenses, not leaving much for his own or his direct family's expenses.
