NAFTA - North American Free Trade Agreement created a larger scope of free trade covering United States, Canada and Mexico.

Explanation:

Major positive impact of this agreement is that it tripled the trade profits of Canada, Mexico and United states. It also removed tariffs which weer considered to be the international barriers. It increased the economic output which resulted in economic growth up to 0.5 % every year. Also Foreign investments are attracted. US oil imports from mexico was considered to be beneficial as there were no tariffs imposed by  US. This had a major impact on the economy.

The transportation costs lowered due to low gas price and the food prices were also marginalized. Each nation's government contracts became available to the major suppliers which increased competition and lowered the costs.

The negative impacts are, this agreement favored import and export industry but many labor oriented industries suffered a lot which included manufacturing, textile and electronic appliances due to which many started to migrate. The companies started to reduce their wages if they refused to work for them.

NAFTA agreement totally eliminated in doing good to the farmers. It subsidized the farm products and the farmers could not make profits due to  the lower farm prices which forced them to search for many other illegal jobs. They plunged into poverty and starvation.

The next impact is the degradation of the environment in Mexico. Farmers used many chemicals and pesticides to increase the production at that short period of time which resulted in unhealthy foods and deforestation resulted in global warming. No safety standard followed by the Mexican truck transport.

Write a paragraph that compares and contrasts how wealthy people might have lived in ancient Rome with how poor people and slave
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

For wealthy Romans, life was good. They lived in beautiful houses – often on the hills outside Rome, away from the noise and the smell. They enjoyed an extravagant lifestyle with luxurious furnishings, surrounded by servants and slaves to cater to their every desire. Many would hold exclusive dinner parties and serve their guests the exotic dishes of the day.

and for the poor ,

Poorer Romans, however, could only dream of such a life. Sweating it out in the city, they lived in shabby, squalid houses that could collapse or burn at any moment. If times were hard, they might abandon newborn babies to the streets, hoping that someone else would take them in as a servant or slave. Poor in wealth but strong in numbers, they were the Roman mob, who relaxed in front of the popular entertainment of the time – chariot races between opposing teams, or gladiators fighting for their life, fame and fortune.

Although their lives may have been different, they did have some things in common. In any Roman family life, the head of the household was a man. Although his wife looked after the household, he controlled it. He alone could own property. Only he decided the fate of his children and who they would marry.
