Jordan Gaines's curator insight, December 6, 2021 11:38 PM
This is a great example of how our economy works. People will use their salaries to purchase good from major companies like Apple. As a result Apple's market value increases making it more desired. The more people believe in a product the more money the company will make. By giving companies like this all this money it allows huge margins when comparing businesses and their overall values.

The World Trade Organization on Tuesday said the European Union could impose tariffs on $4 billion of U.S.

Nyan Min's curator insight, November 4, 2020 5:49 PM
The following is a video from Bloomberg News.

The video discusses how the WTO is allowing the European Union to impose tariff of $4 billion dollars on the United States for giving subsidies to aviation company Boeing.

This may incentivize the EU and the United States to reach an agreement on how to help a struggling airline industry in both areas of the world. The EU may or may not come to negotiating table at the moment depending on the outcome of the United States presidential election in 2020. There is hope that the leaders of the EU and the United States can come to an alignment on subsidies for the airline industry.

From my perspective, I’m sure why would need that much money invested into tear gas. That three billion should go to health care and curing starvation.

Its a shame were going on lockdown again and have to see so many business close as a result of it, I have seen dozens of restaurants close and a bunch of people lose their job as a result to a cold that is not even close to being as bad as H1N1 was when Obama was in office. Quite a shame to see what's happening with the lockdowns and mask mandates. 
Jordan Gaines's curator insight, October 29, 2021 9:41 PM

The corona virus caused many businesses to struggle. Many companies had to close because of a decrease in production. While some just didn't want to risk infecting others at the workplace. There was no other option but to lay people off putting restaurant owners in terrible positions. Going from week to week, most don't have extra cash stashed for savings. They were forced to pivot and had to utilize delivery and to-go orders just to stay afloat. Many having to shorten their menus, hours, and work staff, all to keep people safe and meet the demands of the government. All these factors caused restaurant owners to get creative with their customers and production of food. Many utilized apps like door-dash. Or systems like curbside pick up. Restaurants had to completely shift their business ideas just stay afloat.

Jalen Thomas's curator insight, November 19, 2021 3:21 PM
This video is about how restaurants have had to layoff many workers due to the covid outbreak. March, April, and May of 2020, there was an estimate of $225 billion decline in sales. During the times of covid, many small businesses struggles to keep workers because of how little they made in sales which is also due to everyone having to stay home and cook homemade meals.
