Think about the Global Sim Meal Simulation we did in class. Think about these questions and leave a comment on them below!
1. How did you feel as a member of your country?
2. How did you feel about members of other countries?
3. How did your country spend the money that you had?
4. Did you agree with how it was spent?
5. There are enough resources in our world that would allow all nations to live at an acceptable standard of living. Why do you think that nations don’t just share?
6. How do you think our world would change if everyone in the world had access to equal resources?

life isnt fair. and i think that if we shared the money that the world had i dont think there would be much war because its like destroying your food sorce. and instead of giving alot of the money we get on famous people and certain individuals the world wouldnt be having the probles with starvation

By:Brett
1. i felt very poor
2.they were mean
3.bread and jam yum
4.yes,but i would rather have had rice
5.because they dont want to give away there reasources then they wouldn't have enough for them self
6.there wouldn't be world hunger
omg im so full
I felt annoyed as a member of my country. That they got all the good food and had way more money than us.My country spent money on bread and jam,I agreed with what they spent it on. Because they might not be fair to everyone and they might fight over things. Everyone wouldn`t fight over things.
1. Bad because i didn't get alot of things cause somebody stole our food.....DYLAN.
2. I thought they were lucky.
3.On food bread and jam.
4. yes.
5. Becuse life isn't fair.
6. It would be really different.
1.Awesome cuz we could buy anything i wanted, i was so rich
2.i felt that they were bagging for stuff cuz we had money
3.we spent it like we had nothing else to spent it on
4.yes, i did
5.cuz they want it all to themselfs
6.i think we would have a lot of troubles, or not, im not sure
board, angry, not well, no, no because if all the rich countries would give all their food away and then they wouldnt have any, it wouldnt work out good because some countries would take the same amount of food then some countries wouldnt have anything
Very Funny Sydnie
Dylan said:ya i took all the rice but i never ate it so i felt rich.
Ya and how many people were happy with u? oh wait none
Ya dylan everybody was freaking out
1.Well i didnt really get to do anything,4 people didnt even get to go and get water.
2.well for the most part i think they were pretty gererous with thier food because people from other contries kept coming to give us food.
3.well president Avery bought us food with the litte money that we had.
4.Yeah,i guess so because there probably nothing better to buy.
5.Well because maybe they want to make the world a better place.
6.well i think that would probably be a good thing so that people are all equally buying the same pricing of things so jelousy doesnt occur.
1.I felt kind packed in
2.I felt that they were being genrous by donating thins to us
3.they spent the money on bread and jam
4.yes because then we had food to eat
5.i think that nations don't share because there are to many nations that don't like eachother
6.i think that the world would change by there might be more traiding going on
2. jelios because there were rubeing it in
3. bad could of bought more keup
4.more water
5.no
6.no
I think that the only reason is that the world is kinda all in there own divitions and some are more poor than others so thats why people had more food than others.
and people like dylan just waisted all the food he licked the rice and spit it in the bowl and said its for us but whatever im never doing this again =D
1.I felt very stressed because i was the president so i was running around to throw stuff away and to clean up and keep our country clean and representible. And it was hard because i was trying to feed my country with all the food that I had
2.At first I felt like they were bragging but then after i felt like they were being really generous because they would give us bread and water and other foods.
3.We bought bread and jam
4.i agree with how the money was spent because i bought it.
5.because we dont realize how much money we actually have and we dont realize how much money countries like Africa dont have.
6.I think it would be a better world to live in because then everyone would be equal.
Ya alot of people were mad and sad because other people were being selfish and rude.
I felt angry that hardly anyone even TRIED to use an inside voice also, soe of the members of my group where acting ridiculous! Our country spent the money on bread and jam so it was okay.
I think that the nations don't share because people are selfish, there's really nothing we can do about that because people only give what they want. I think that there would still be war because people are power hungry and greedy, but some people would be better off, while other people would loose some things (like $700 jeans).
haha ya i eat to much bread :)
hahah brett thats funny!!
Dyaln said:bad could of bought more keup
What would we of done with ketchup thats all we could of bought?
1- I felt good because we only had two people in our country and we agreed in what we wanted to buy.
2- I felt that they were kinda demanding and always asking for your food if you were richer than them. Also i felt kinda good because we got food from the richer countries and we got water rom them too.
3- WE talked about it and thought that we shouldn't just buy silly stuff like pop and candy so we bought bread and jam and butter and when we got water we hurried so that we wouldn't get money taken away.
4- Yes i agree that we had good choices with what we spent our money on.
5- They don't just share because if you are the top country and everyone is gonna come to you for money and food and it gets tiring.
6- I think it wouldn't be a world because that what the world is; it is about asking everyone fro food and making deals with other countries.
1.It was kinda fun, but it was kinda scary how everybody was fighting, like when we got 1 peice of chocholate and I was pushed to the floor, whitch hurt, by the way.
2.At first they were all kind of braggy, but by the end they were really generous.
3.We spent it on bread and jam.
4.Yes, I agree because it was really good,and it wasnt spent on ketchup or something stupid like that.
5.I think nations dont share because they are greedy.
6.If everything was shared equally there wouldnt be fighting, yelling,ect.
dale i agree with you the rich people were taking there food and rubbing it in your countries face
1. poor and hungry cause some stole the rice....DYLAN!!!!!
2. good
3.pretty good
4.ya
5.Because some countrys, there is barely enough food for on country to live on.
6. Less homeless people and it would be easier.
there should have been tacos
well thats true
@ sydnie Was it fun to have only 2 people in your group?
1. i felt poor
2. they probaly felt very frasrated because some people kept eating all the food.
3. not worth it.
4. yah
5.because they dont want to waste it.
6.there would be less homeless people and people in africa wouldnt starv to death
haha brett i agree what would u do with ketchup ?
my country was so loney......until that teacher came
Hey we only rubbed it in at the start then we got bored and gave you food

@ Blake
Was it fun eating that peice of bread, and rubbing it in my face??
why would u need keup? IT WOULD BE POINTLESS
blake..... u didnt give us any food u just talked to me
1.i felt mad because some people just did whatever they wanted and someone took all the rice.
2.Well they were nice because they gave us food
3.They spent it pretty good because we got bread and jam and lots of people got lots of food so thats good.
4.ya cause lots of us got food
5. Mabey because of starvation or just because there mean like that.
6. The world would change because there wouldnt be wars or arguments
blogs are cool
haha blake u r so mean !!! :,(
i thought the prestiet was bad beause we could of made a plan with our group so it would be even with food and water
@ britt yes it was quite fun thank you for asking but sorry for being mean :p
hey MR.Hyland may we please have some pop
As a member of my country, I felt pretty good. We had enough money to get what we needed or wanted, and the more fortuanate people were great about sharing their riches. The members of one country were not great, as they made too much noise and were really crazy. Our country spent our money on food, because spending our whole $30 on one cup of pop for each of us was a pretty bad deal. We each got enough food though, and it was great. I liked how it was spent, but I did have a pretty big say in exactly what we bought. I think nations don't share because having more is a big status symbol and humans are hoarders. Lots of leaders don't care about their people, like most of the leaders in Africa, and therefore they don't have adequate food, water, healthcare and education. If everybody in the world had equal resources, our world would be more advanced than it is alredy, because all of the great minds wouldn't be oppressed by poverty. There would also be more war, because everybody would have equal access to military stuff and would fight with everybody else to get more, because of that status symbol problem. If we could brainwash society to be happy with what they had it would be great, but it would be terrible if we were brainwashed so much that it became like More's Utopia. And that would be very, very bad indeed. If you don't know what More's Utopia is, Google it.
blake why would i tell u ! ;)
1. I felt like i was not very important, because the people in the other two groups kind of showed off.
2.Some members were not being fair and were stealing and hiding food, exspecially the food that cost more.
3.we bought the bread and some jam, I think we spent it pretty good, a person in our group stole all the food!
4. yes, because it was all we could buy.
5. People are greedy, and always want more, and more, and more.
6. It would be great, but sinse people want more, it would never happen.
@ nicholas
Ya there shouldve been tacos, but we wouldnt have been able to afford them :(
you better tell me
emma a bit to much there
ya it would of been even but somebody ate all our food...... DYLAN
Mr. Sklapsky thinks #1 is bad!
1. bad because my country was poor and we couldnt afford any good food.
2.They were good because they bought us spoons so we didnt need to eat with our hands.
3.We bought rice and bread and baloni with our money.
4.no i thought we should of got chips and pop.
5.Because some countrys need resources that others have so they say if you give me this ill give some of my resouces.
6.The world would be way different because then they would not have that much and every country would be the same pretty much.

1. I felt very legit as we all had an opionin
2. They were all very good
3. we bought sandwiches and rice bread with jam
4. Yes I did agree
5.Well it might compromise treaty's that could get countries money

1.i felt that life isnt fair
2.the members of my counry were very grety
3.we spent it on food that we all wanted
4.yes
5.they wont share because the want to be grety people and have there money all to there selfs
6.it would be great because more people wouldnt starve to death
i felt like it wasnt fair watching the other countries basically pig out infront of us and we had barely anything
1. I felt bad because i was poor and hungry.
2. I didn't like how they had more money, but they did support us so they were alright.
3. We bought bread and rice with our money, and had many generous donations of food and money.
4. Yes, we did agree on how the money was spent.
5. Yes, i do think that some countries do not share.
6. I think poverty and disease wouldn't be a problem in countries that don't have that much money, because we would all be equal. i like eggs and chocolate eggs
1. Poor.staved.unwanted.I wanted to leave my country.
2.I wish I could have been sitting at the table with cuttlery and lots of money.
3. Canada gave us $20 and bought us 2 things of rice. Then we bought bread with bolagna.
4.Yes.
5. So they can have power.
6. There wouldn't be as much power.
I would like it if we could do this again I enjoyed it and I think the 2 and 1 countries had fun. Next time I would like to be country #1.
#1 it was eye opening to see haw people have to live.
#2 I felt good that they woud donate money to my level 4 contry.
#3 my contry spent our mony on rice, bred, and bulony.(but mostly rice)
#4 i agreed with haw the money was spent but others in my groop did not.
#5 Some contrys just cant aford to shere most contrys with larg food output will have a low GDP.
#6 ower contry of canada woud have less food to eat.
1 I feel like i would not be cought dead running a contry
2 i feel good about making allies with other contries because the my think the same way i do
3 My contry spend way too much money for stuff i need but it mostly becuase of rip offs
4 yes i do becuase it is very hard too keep money too get what you need
5 The nations dont share becuase they dont care about others in a lower class contries
6 There would not be war and there would not fight over the food and water
1.I felt good because i was rich for once.
2.i felt bad because they didnt get the same things as i did.
3.We spent some of it on country 4,2 and got coke a cola,bread,butter,jam,rice and ham.
4.Somewhat.
5.They dont share so that other countries have to relie on some countries.
6.It would be a somewhat good place.
1.good cuz i go money from other counties but i got sent to jail for boarder crossing :(
2they were nice :)
3good we got rice:) and we go money from others too
4mostly but i was also given 25 to spend
5cuz there gready and want to rich and want to live at the top an have a nice country for its people and some just cant share because the are to poor to give anything away
6 yes because everyone would be healthy and no one would be hungry and everyone would have be nutrition and better ammune systems so everyone would live better and happier
:) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) (:v) <------ pacman
good and farely
they were very nice because one country buy use rice and spoons
good we got stuff people wanted and not stuff we did not need like pop when we had free water
yes everyone got a say
because if one country does not make any moey and one country make all the money that is not fare because they did not do anything to ern there food.
we would have allot more fight because people might not be pulling there weight in the food part of the deal
1. as a member of a fourth world country i felt poor and hungry
2.i felt like they where spoiled people who didnt care
3.we bought rice and bread
4.yes i did........ but they did not distribute it farley
5.they want to keep more themselves so they can be spioled and rich. the wore resources you have the more power you have over other people
6. there wouldnt be wars or any violence because the reson most wars start is because of the resouces the other country has so ther ewoulndt be near as much wars or violence
1. I felt like we were mistreated and had unfair circumstances compared to other countries that were treated very greatly.
2. I felt that they were treated very well and they had it good, while we didn't even get spoons.
3. We bought rice first of all, then we bought bread and salami and then some people who were generous donated to us.
4. I thought it was spent well.
5. Lots of nations don't share because they just want to make money and make trades for other reasons like building their army, getting more power, ect.
6. Our world might be better, but it could be worse in some ways. It would definately be alot more peaceful.
#3 we got lots of rice, bread, and balgoni. also we only had 3 minutes to walk to mrs.dempsey's room to get a cup of water that was free. but with the water we only got 1 glass each adn thats it.
the rich country was nic the gave food to the poor country and we got alot of gifts from the rich kids:)
1.I felt as if I didn't really get to choose much
2.I felt that donovan donated a little more than necessary to the 4's and 3's
3.Well donovan spent about half our money on 3's and 4's and about 1 quarter of the money on food for us
4.No not really
5.Because they're greedy hoarders that figure " if they die that's not my problem."
6.There would problebly be more peace in the world..... maybe not
1.not good because i only had 10 dollars for 13 people.
2.like their better because they had more money and the 2 richest places had chairs
3.good we got rice and sandwithes but then i went to jail for stealing water.
4. yes because we all shared it equaly.
5. because they dont think sometimes or they want to stay healthy and safe. and also some countries think because its there part they will keep it.
6.it would still be hard because one country might know how to spend it better than another.
yes and no. i think that everyone in nunmber 4 was screaming in the presidents ear so she didnt know what to get. so she just got a lot of rice and bread and balgoni. i didnt like the rice so i wouldnt have spent it on that. i would have got bread and some kind of meat insted.
it was alot of fun we should have it agian
we got a fair amount of money us #1's
1.I felt we were poor because we were the forth and we didnt have tat much money to buy things.
2.i felt that the others members were more rich than use and it wasent fair because they got more food
3.we bought bread,rice,blonie
4.kinda because lots of people wanted jam and butter but kirk decided most of the foods we got
5.i think they dont share because some people are greedy or they are not allowed to share.
6.I think no one would be dieing from starvation and it might be differnt for us because we wouldnt get as much food as we usally do.
hurry harry u dont want to get eaten by the owl
in group 4 the guys were so selfish and they were take everybodys food
i think the nations dont share it becuase some nations are very poor and can barely afford a pot of rice for each person. other nations that have more stuff i think are just greedy and dont want to share with anyone.
1) Hungry
2)Good they shared there money with our country.
3)We bought bread, rice, and baloni
4)No i think we should have all had a say.
5)Because there all greedy.
6)There would be no war or fight i think the wrld would be in peace.
@emma.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................wow thats to long to read
1) As a member of country one I felt good that I got treated so well, it made ma feel special.
2)I felt bad for the more poor country's(country's 3 and 4) it was a litte sad to watch them fight over food, it definatly made me feel good for what I had and made me want to help them even more.
3)We spent the money we had by getting nice things for us like food, water, pop, ect., but we also spent 50$ on the more poor countrys so that they had nice things to, and that made me feel good.
4)Yes I was very happy to help other countrys it made me happy to see that they were getting more food then they could have afforded because of me and my country.
5)I think that they don't share because they like to have that powerand it makes tham feel good to be wealthy.
6)I think our world would change by being alot better of a place if everyone jut helped eachother.
Thank you all for your comments. We will discuss this a little further in class.
road map so i don`t get lost and help us find place
resource map to see what coutery produce
life isnt fair. and i think that if we shared the money that the world had i dont think there would be much war because its like destroying your food sorce. and instead of giving alot of the money we get on famous people and certain individuals the world wouldnt be having the probles with starvation
