About Me

I am from Iraq. I have lived in the US for over 5 years now. I recently graduated from High School and on the way to being a college freshman. I guess I am considered a college freshman at this moment of time. I can do almost anything if and only if I was challenged. I can also do anything in the world "my mind" sets on. I believe in learning and education. I love learning new things at all times. I am looking forward to achieving a bachelor of science in petroleum engineering. Wish me luck, and I look forward to the challenge.

    A comment on Conversation: Can China really become a super power, or will it remain a great power among other great powers?

    Aug 13 2012: A lot of our society today assumes that China is going to be the leading power. However, the truth might not be what exactly people think. Today the USA imports around 16.1% overall from China, very large percentage. That tells us that China is mostly relaying on the US for exporting their not only products but also services. Therefore, China is just a simple landscape of cheap workers and no taxes that American companies take over for business. You see if America would stop importing from China and all the US companies and manufactories would go back to the USA, China will surely be at the end of the list of countries with super powers.
