Today I think all of the groups presented in class. My groups presentation was about China producing goods that are cheaper. Also we talked about China having low pay so they have the cheapest prices guaranteed. Ben in are group was very enthusiastic and it was funny. Otherwise I think are group did good. The other groups did good to but there was a lot of arguing and discussion for Lexie's group.
