The military basis are considered as ''ground zero'' for epidemic outbreaks because of the constant movement of the people. The soldiers are moved from one place to another regularly. They can be in a military base in Africa, than sent in a military base in Asia, after that get back home. Wherever they are, they are in constant touch with people. The diseases that are found in certain places in the world can be very easily transferred to them, and they will easily transfer the disease to their colleagues, to the people in another military base, or to the people back home, thus being the ones that spread out the disease and cause an epidemic of the same.

Decide whether each item is a benefit or cost of economic globalization.
andriy [413]

Answer:

Benefits:

  1. Access to a larger market
  2. Increase in production of goods

Costs:

  1. Loss of jobs in developed countries
  2. Depletion of natural resources.

Explanation:

On the one hand, a global market means that a company or firm can potentially reach a larger market to sell its products and services. And in turn, make more profit. On the other hand, it also means that the competition is global and that a firm has to compete in this larger market with hundreds of firms. This often means that to be competitive, companies have to lower their costs. One easy way of doing that is by outsourcing or moving parts of their production process to countries with lower salaries. This leads to the loss of jobs in the home countries.

The increased competition and the larger market also mean that more goods are produced at a better price for the customer. However, this production can easily get out of hand and deplete natural resources.
