coments!

I liked a lot the discussion we had in class about the question asked. Like, what is a strong country, etc. It is important to consider the economics of a country but I think it is more important to consider the structure of the government or political system of a country. If there is a country with great economics but a the political system is not working well with it, it will turn out to be bad for the country's economics. Gorge W. Bush, ex-president of the United States, for example, pulled down the economics of the country because of the conflicts he provoked with the war with Iraq.

I will have to disagree with you Tom. Actually I think that war is a money maker for the economic system, if canalyzed correctly.
In the other hand Bush's administrations had some lack in handling economics. I think he focused a lot in foreing affairs and war that he forgot his own economics and industries.

I hope you like my comment and I hope too that it is helpful for you.

Well it's a good point you are making there Fernando. Well as I said, if the money is not good administrated by the government, the country doesn't get a penny. Yes, Bush had some lack in handling economics, for sure.
Thanks for the comment Fer.

I totally agree with you Tom, because the economy and the political system of a country is very important, though the case you show about Bush is a perfect example for it. Bush left out it´s economy and put all the money and effort and people to the war in Iraq, leaving out his own country. This led to what's happening now, the economis crisis in the USA.
