If the markets will continue to turn against Italy" "It will take time for them rise in yields to push up the government’s cost of borrowing, which rises only as debt is rolled over." Even the "Foreigners have reduced their holdings of Italian government debt." Continue in this article they still see some potentials and future, making business in Italy and the production will rise up, and there is always hope for better future."</div>]]></description>

The discussion we had in our class about GDP and economy from our reading materials "Beyond GDP"(by Diane Coyle, 2014).<br>From this article the prognosis that GDP will grow around 3% this year, and unemployment rate is still significantly low at 3.9%.<br>They said in the article that "Inflation and employment are affected by temporary shocks and structural shifts, as well as by economic policy. Errors take time to show up."&nbsp;<br>According to another data been released on September 11, that most "Americans are quitting their jobs at the highest rate since 2001. For each job opening, there are just 0.82 hires and 0.9 unemployed people hunting for a slot."&nbsp; Continue from information in this article yes the "average hourly earnings seem to be accelerating, up by 2.9% in August compared with 12 months ago", but it doesn't mean that prices on the market are still the same."</div>]]></description>

According to this article most people move from their villages to the city looking for better pay jobs, because of the " The root of Leiyang’s financial trouble is the collapse of its coal industry.", and many people were forced to move to Urban areas where they can find a job, but the problem is behind over-urbanized cities are straggling to give better education for growing population " Classes with more than 55 pupils are considered “large” and those with more than 65 are “super-large”. There are some classes where been accounted as " A class size of 120 has been reported at a secondary school in Hebei province, which surrounds Beijing."<br>I can see another connection to this article why people in China drop out from school early in age and choose to go work in the city so they can help their parents to survive."</div>]]></description>

"One reason countries have flexible exchange rates is to cushion their economies from external shocks. A country whose currency is falling should see its terms of trade—the cost of its exports relative to imports—fall, encouraging foreigners to buy its goods and keep its economy healthy." In addition that she is the first woman who will be holding this job position at this level."</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>- <strong>Why the IPCC’s report on global warming matters (</strong> A new report produces an odd mixture of alarm and apathy)<br><a href="https://www.economist.com/leaders/2018/10/13/why-the-ipccs-report-on-global-warming-matters">https://www.economist.com/leaders/2018/10/13/why-the-ipccs-report-on-global-warming-matters</a><br>"I found this article is important to talk about, because we all know how much electricity, water and gas we use every day, but not everyone believes in global warming, it is around the corner and we should care about the planet and how we use natural resources. This article relates to one of our class discussion and the project we are working on WDI (world development indicators). After making small research on CO2 Emissions per capita and the United States is the highest. From the research data been verified: United States has been used CO2 (carbon dioxide) approximately 15.53 emission from fuel combustion per capita in 2015.  "FOR decades scientists have warned that rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuels risk adversely affecting the climate, increasing ocean acidity, the frequency of freak weather and other symptoms of planetary ill-health." We need to raise awareness about it, and many people are, by reducing use of plastic and buying cars that runs on electric emission." </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>-<strong>Rent control is a hot-button issue in California again <br>(</strong>The state with more homeless people than any other could rewrite its housing laws)<br><a href="https://www.economist.com/united-states/2018/11/03/rent-control-is-a-hot-button-issue-in-california-again">https://www.economist.com/united-states/2018/11/03/rent-control-is-a-hot-button-issue-in-california-again</a><br>"This article reminds me about "Economic Disarticulation and Other Effects" and "Overurbanization". The sign from this article says it all "People before Property", there are many people homeless for all kinds of different reasons in their life, and somebody has to change this. Over "134,000 homeless people in California  who live in bus shelters, public parks or dry river beds. They are so many—the population of a small city—that homelessness, and the wider housing problems of which it is part, have become the hottest political topics in California". After 2008 big economic recession that happened all around the world, many people lost their houses and got evicted, people couldn't afford to pay off their loans and mortgages on the house they just purchased it and after they been forced to be homeless and live their houses, to find shelters. An opening eye for me was the movie "The Big Short" 2015; it was a simple explanation about why and how it happened."</div>]]></description>

I found this article is relevant to our class discussion about migrants and immigration, plus this article relates to the relationship from United States president with Mexican government and people-migrants "onslaught of illegal aliens" who come to United States for better life and better future for their children.  "They know Donald Trump will not make them welcome. He calls the “caravan”, which is irresistible to television news programmes, an “onslaught of illegal aliens” and vows to send the army to shut the United States’ southern border." This is the reaction of our president how to handle some situations when people from other countries are asking for help, aid and shelter for their population."</div>]]></description>

This article I connect to our class discussion on "Globalization and Immigration". In this article explains that the migrants don’t increase crime, and they do pay more taxes. “With continued net migration of 250,000 a year, the ratio would be 404." “Highly skilled workers probably raise the productivity of British firms, by bringing new ideas with them. Since they earn more, they pay more tax. Lower-skilled migrants, by contrast, do not hold such clear benefits for existing residents."<br>  It is still unclear what government wants to do about it, the immigration in some rich countries is rising up, and sometimes it is overcrowding drive this countries to the poor."</div>]]></description>
