The presence of globalization is undeniable. Our world is constantly changing today and will continue to do so. Countries now are starting to put high values on certain things and ideas and we are starting to idolize the same things.
Our world today is all about fast and efficient methods. We want things to come to us with the easiest and quickest method. People today are getting greedier. We idolize that 1% of the population that are considered rich and people try to be like them. Other countries look at how powerful and rich the United States is and they try to be like us in certain ways.
Globalization fails in some places though. With the example of soccer club cultures, globalization is not able to break down the culture and their enthusiasm for soccer.
The presence of globalization is a double edged sword. It can be good for us but it also creates serious problems. Many jobs can be created and poor countries can be liberated of poverty, but the rich and power can use it to their advantage by exploiting the poor. Let us hope that people use it more for the world's well being than for their self interest.
