number 1

I learned alot of new facts about the world today and in my opinion it was scary. It was a new way of thinking. I think the most surprising thing to me was that America isn't as high up as I thought and what I mean by that is that other countries are excelling at the same rate if not faster. We do have so much technology and people going to college but in India and in China they had way more people graduate in 2006. And not even that there was more people in India graduate, but that everyone of them could speak english. I can't believe that every 8 seconds 34 babies were born. India had more babies than china too. That just surprises me because there are so many people living in china that you would think they would have more babies.
The greatest standard of living was Great Britain. I always thought America was. I know that we have economic struggles and we haven't had a great president in a while and we are at war rite now but I still thoght we were better off. It's kind of scary if you think about it. It really makes me wonder how much will change within the next few years. And where out economy is going.
