question 3 article on war

The United States and other nations are always trying to become independent and free from other nations resources. Providing your own resources, energy sources, food, and raw materials will benefit that countries economy in the long run. This prevents interactions and potential problems between countries, and the steady dollar value of the resource or service being provided. This is seen today as the United States tries to become free from middle eastern oil, as we try to rely less on China for economic support and stimulus, especially as developing nations try to utilize raw materials found in their own countries. Economic independence will provide more work for the workforce of that individual country, and a country non-relient does not have to worry about dramatic price increases, tariffs, and other exporting of good problems can also be avoided. It will also allow a developing nation to make more of its own choices, keeping them free from foreign culture, influence, and even rule.
