The biggest one that strikes me from the link is the dangers of reliance of other nations. The Great Depression was partly due to every nation relying on each other and when one economy collapsed (Germany), it created a domino effect that transferred to other countries
"Partly due" only holds if you mean very, very, very marginally.
The Great Depression was mainly due - as in, almost completely due - to the gold standard and tight money, which led to a serious loss of liquidity. Now, let me look at those twelve reasons.
The only way the gold standard played a role is that nations suspended it so they can produce more money than they could back with gold. If they were to revert back then their economy would have tanked; that's why a system like gold is the best way to prevent a cloud 9 type of deal where people think they're prosperous when reality is that they are not. On the other hand, America kept it's gold standard during WWI, which led to an economic boom straight afterwards But the Great Depression was due in part of Germany's $10B debt it owed the allies. The allies were dependent on Germany to pay them back and when they tried to pay them back, they resorted to printing money which led to inflation and bombed the world economy

I's bad Multinational companies are the only ones benefiting. They bring in foreign currency, employment opportunities, give funding to the governments in the countries they have bases in, and increase the GDP, to name a few. However their drawbacks outweigh their benefits. These companies can exploit the local workforce. For example some countries have less intense labor and health and safety rules and multinationals use that to their advantage. They might use cheap labor and give unfair hours. Issues of child labor have stemmed from this. The separation of these far-away factories means they do not have the investigative eye of the western media to watch them. Another issue with multinationals is pollution. Some host country's governments for fear of losing all the said 'benefits' of the multinational do not insist on the factories adhering to stringent environmentally conscious practices. An example of this was the Bhopal gas leakage in 1984: In the Union Carbide pesticide plant in India, over 500,000 people were exposed to toxic gases due to a leak in the plant. There were many fatalities. The issue was due to the operating of the plant with safety equipment and procedure far below the regular standards. The local government was aware of this but did not intervene due to the reason I said before-they wanted to keep the large employer. My final issues with multinationals are that they take aware opportunities from local competing firms, they reduce a countries cultural identity by surrounding them with their western ideals, and finally the natural resources of that country can be used for the multinational, and once they are depleted the multinational is able relocate quickly, leaving the host country to pick up the pieces. And here's this which makes even better points why globalization is bad http://ourfiniteworld.com/2013/02/22/twelve-reasons-why-globalization-is-a-huge-problem/The biggest one that strikes me from the link is the dangers of reliance of other nations.

Relevant?
Yet those civilizations before the Middle Ages were far more religious than Christian civilizations in Dark Ages, which was only situated in Western Europe. This had no effect on the rest of the world, especially in the Middle-East where the Islamic Golden Age came to play almost immediate after the Middle Ages had started. This Golden Age basically just transferred the balance of knowledge from Europe to the Arab world, despite being highly devoted to the Islamic religion. You had things like the Scientific Method, discovery of the sum formula for the fourth power, quasicrytalline geometry, Law of sines, finding of the Andromeda constellation, ideas leading to the concept of natural selection The Dark Ages were far more a void of discovery And to add, that image is based on a simple slippery slop

I do not know what Freshmen Friday is.
Just some event where Seniors pick on and do shit to Freshman on like the first and last Fridays of the school ear. Literally nobody does it
Everyone does it. Maybe you were passed over that day because you look like a girl.
I'm pretty sure it only happened to you because of how much of a dick wad you are. Wouldn't be surprised if special-ed elementary kid schools did it to you also
No, it happened to me because I looked like a freshman male in my freshman year, like a normal person.

People are stupid to try and sell shit for this much. People are even stupider to bid on it, assuming any of those are legit bids.
Seeing as how all the desticles were having anal fissures of Ghost editions running out, I wouldn't be surprised if a few of them stole mommy's credit card and placed like a $400
