My Tumblr Experience?

                                         Overall I think that Tumblr is a really great site. I currently have two accounts. I have a personal account and then I have my school account. My personal account allows me to keep in touch with friends and to see a lot of the trending topics like twitter. My school account allows me to post homework assignments all in one place. Also, having the ability to follow my friends and see what they post for homework gives me the ability to look at theirs if I have any questions about what I am doing. Tumblr is very easy to use because of the simple upload options. It lays out all the possible ways to upload things to the site, and walks you through the process. I would much rather do homework assignments and projects on the internet because I am great at figuring things out on the computer and it allows us to have a wider range of technology knowledge and usage. I will be an avid Tumblr user.

Mutual fund vs Stocks

                                     The big debate between buying a mutual fund versus a stock deals with individuals risk level. Mutual funds require you to pay lower amounts of money, which in return gives you a lower risk. Since you have a lower risk the gain from your mutual fund is not that much. A stock however requires the full amount of money to buy it and the risk for losing the money is much much higher. The result though can be positive and you make more profit than you would on a mutual fund. To say that buying a mutual fund is way better than buying a stock is not true. It all depends on the person and what they are willing to lose if the investment is not a good one.

6.35% Digital Tax?

Connecticut's decision to potentially have a 6.35% tax would do a lot more harm than any good. Already, more and more people are turning to illegally downloading content off of the internet. If a tax was put onto all digital downloads there would be a major rise in the illegally used content. Also, the people who do pay the price required are already thinking that the price is too much. A tax is just another way for the government to take more money from people. The law should not be passed in my opinion because it will make a lot of people angry and cause more illegal downloads on the internet.

Fading of the American Industrial Era

         I think that given the statistics about the rate of unemployment in the United States and the outsourcing of companies and jobs to foreign countries, like the rising economic giant China, I predict that the Industrial Era for the U.S. will slowly fade to nothing. Like the given demographic above, it shows that in the year 2025, China surpasses the other economic giants and becomes number one. In the Holley Essay provided by Mr. Raatz, it says that in stores located around Britain, it is hard to find a product not made from China. I think that it is also the same case here in America. The fading of the British Industrial Era is a perfect example of what is to come for The United States if some things are not changed.
