Comment:
I think that the paper needs more to it, to get the point that is being researched across. It’s a bit confusing to the reader the way that it is written. There also are no citations used throughout the paper, that should be there.

Comment:
I believe that the beginning of the paper does a decent job at introducing the topic, however, I would come up with a stronger thesis and make the first paragraph stand out a little more then it does now. I also am not very sure of the forecast.

Comment:
There is a conclusion, but once again, if the paper was backed up better I believe that this would make for a over-all better flowing paper.
