Why is it important that we follow news from Europe?

  1. Even though we are our own country, it still matters what happens in other parts of the world. For instance, when Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, it effected our prices of gas and drywall, even though we live in Iowa.

  2. I think it is important that we follow news from Europe because there is many news in Europe that we use today. News from Europe never dies down. Its always important to remember the what goes on around the European area.

  3. It is important because what happens in Europe or any other wealthy country affects the USA in multiple ways. So if the value of the European dollor goes down our stock market will go down. If natural distaster happens in Europe the stock market will drop. Events that happen around the world affect people of the US in some sort of way.

  4. It is important because Europe helps the U.S in many ways. If something bad happens there we should know, so maybe we could help them out. Even though its not our country we should still know whats going on around there.

  5. It's a good thing to know because if something that comes from over there that we rely on has a problem, that means that it will affect the U.S. If it's going to affect the U.S we need to know about it so that we can prepare for the devastation that it may or may not cause.

  6. The things that happens in other countries affects us more than we think. When there is weather that hits and there is a need for people to be sent over to help the less fortunate, than we are sent over to that country. I also think that sometimes, our country also needs to look at what things are happening here, and look out for the people that are living in the streets and going hungry IN our very town.

  7. I think it is important because Europe is still part of our world, and it still affects us. As Erin said, as an example, even though we are in Iowa and Hurricane Katrina happened in New Orleans, it made our gas prices go up, along with some of our other essentials.

  8. I think its important because we need to know what is going on around the world. Like if iraq is planning attacks we need to know so we can counter it. Europe needs help with there debt but we cant help them with it because were 13t dollars in debt.

  9. It is always good to know what is happening overseas, because of the war and who is angry and whos going through hardships,ect. Its just like people that live overseas are interested in what is happening in the U.S. because it is big news to us and it may effect them too.

  11. It is important because we most of our Allies are overseas and we need them for resources and all kinds of things. It's very important we keep in touch with them so we can help them and then in return they can help with us. We depend on them as much as they depend on us.

  15. I think it's important because there could be something going on over there that involves us. Maybe we can prevent that if we look at there news. That is why i think its important to fallo there news.

  16. It is important that we know what is going on at other places besides our own country. There could be something that would affect us if we get something from them.

  17. It's important that we know whats going on in Europe because it does effect us in many ways for example if H1N1 breaks out in Europe and we don't know about it all those people coming over to the US will spread the disease. We need to stay in contact with all other countries.

  18. Its important that we follow Europe, because a lot of the stuff people do around the world effects us too. They also might need our help in some way. Only if they ask though.

  19. It is important that we follow European news because most of the time it will effect us. We get a lot of our goods from there so we have to know what goes on from that. If something breaks out over there, it could easily come over here. We would need to be prepared for it.

  20. It is important because Europe has so much to do with the USA. As an example, last year when the miners in chile were trapped in the mine, that was all over our news. Europe has a lot more effect on the United States then everyone thinks. If a disaster happened here, they would try to help us. If something happens there, we would be effected by the stock market and many other things.

  21. It is important for us to keep up with the European news because we do a lot of business over in Europe. We get a lot of exports and goods from Europe so if something bad happens over there and we do not know about it, it could effect us badly.

  22. I believe it is important for the U.S. to follow European news because if something happened to the U.S. Europe would try to help us, so we should try to help them. Like others have said, even though Europe is not right by us, things going on there will affect us. Everything in the world affects every country, and we don't realize this.

  23. We need to know whats going on over there because we trade with them and get stuff from Europe. So if there is anything we can help them with they would like our help and then they will help us sometime if we need it.

  24. Because the world's economy is interconnected, a debt crisis like what is happening in Europe can damage our economy, which is still quite weak after our own recession. Therefore, it is important to watch European news.

  25. Because we should know what is going on in Europe because it is kind of interesting whats happening over there.

  26. When you think about our country what do you think? How do we effect the world? Who are we to the world? We also need to keep other countries in mind. I bet none of us would have known about the Storm in Europe, or the strange disks in Sweden. Europe is important, but so is Asis, Africa, and every other continent. Whatever effects the world effects us because we are a part of the world. Everything that effect one country will effect another, like a domino effect. The news in other parts of the world may not seem important to you, but they effect you nonetheless.

  27. We need to follow Europe because they help shape our economy, via trade, their stock market, ect. That continent also is a big part of our weather patterns. We also depend on them for goods we cannot produce-- bringing us back to the trade aspect of it. All countries depend on others. It is just the way the world is.

  28. I would say it's important to follow European news, even though we live in Iowa, because we need to know what's going on everywhere to help find ways that could help us or we could possibly notice mistakes that are made in other areas that could help us stay out of any more trouble then we're already in.

  29. It is important that we keep track of what is going on in Europe and around the world so we don't make the same mistakes and so we can help them if they need it. Also what is happening in the world effects our country sometimes so its a good idea to know what's going on.

  30. I think it is important because if europe has any types of problems we could help them, and if we had any problems they could help us. Also its important because what other countries do can effect the U.S in so many ways.

  31. It is important that we follow news in Europe because the USA and Europe's economies are connected in ways, and even though we are two separate countries, we still have dependencies with Europe and if one economy is suffering, the other will be affected as well.
