    The future of Globalization
    There should be global regulations for salaries and working conditions
    Governments should impose laws to protect the environment


    1. Government and Society

    What governments can do
    Governments provide public services like healthcare and education
    They support people who are living in poverty or unable to work
    Governments raise money by taxing working people
    They can spend money on resources and campaigns
    They can introduce new laws
    They can impose taxes
    They can raise people’s awareness of issues (e.g climate change/healthy eating)
    They can influence people’s habits and opinions
    They can create jobs
    They can regulate the activities of companies such as banks
    They can provide resources for schools
    They are also responsible for the security and well-being of their citizens
    They control armed forces and police forces

    Public services
    Governments pay the salaries of public sector workers like police officers and teachers
    The necessary money is raised by taxing people’s income
    Free education and healthcare may be provided by the state
    Some governments control public transport systems and even TV channels
    In other countries, these services are provided by private companies
    Some people believe that competition between private companies is good
    It helps to improve quality while bringing prices down
    Other people think that essential services should be free
    Governments should pay for them

    Censorship: Opinion
    Governments can censor what public sees or reads in the media
    To a certain extent censorship is necessary
    We should use censorship to protect children from violent images
    Some computer games involve killing people or committing crimes
    The Internet also needs to be controlled
    Many websites show pornography and violence
    There should be age limits for websites and computers games
    Parents need to take responsibility for checking what their children watch
    It is impossible for governments to control everything we see
