Economy essay
Have you ever thought what a traditional economy is? How can it help us? You should know some of this, because this economy is the hottest economy and the people always think of it. You are in this economy but you didn’t know. Traditional economy is all about working in an ethnic group, spend time with you family, trade products, but it is about working in the whole community. Traditional economy is good because it is all about trading products, family and ethnics, and agricultural ways of farming goods, every one is equal, everyone have work to do. It usually found in rural area long time ago; we can hardly found them in some village in the mountains. Traditional economies positively affect the citizens by allowing them to trade freely, improve family relationship, and use traditional farming method.

Traditional economy is the economy that work and get goods through trading others, because we don’t need to bring a lot of money around. We get what we got for the day, or we just trade with other what they got. For example if a person got 2 fish and another got vegetables, they would trade a fish/ gram of vegetables, that is how traditional economy worked. Thanks to traditional economy, we can spend more time with our family, and every one got their job. You can see it in the rural area of Vietnam, people in villages usually trade stumps with each others when they have what the other needs. We take the good that we caught from that day and bring back home for food, or trade with others. This is better than using money because we don’t have to work to get money to buy goods; we just catch them, grow them and trade them or bring them back for the family.

Traditional economy can make family relationship closer together, every one can gather around the house at night after a hard day. After a day that one has hunt animal, go fishing, and his wife is tries to grow vegetables, his kids go to school…but in the night, they just gather around the small fire in the middle of the house. They can talk about what they have done in that day, and their elders can teach the younger to study, or teach them the skill of farming. The traditional economy is very good for making the family relationship closer together. Like the story “The wise old woman”, by Yoshiko Uchida, the people in the village was try to stay with their family, but the leader of the village have the law that ban the old people in to the mountain until they died. But a farmer love his mom and he hide her in a tunnel and live there. But thanks to her, the villagers were saved by the farmer’s mother. So the leader abolished the law. It talks about the traditional economy people (that’s the people in the village) don’t agree with command economy people (the warlord that want to take over the village). For that they just stand up and fight against the command economy.

The traditional economy people are always working on farming, fishing… and a lot of other things but they don’t use machine to do those works, they use men strength to do their work. In a traditional economy places, you can’t find any factories, or any machines that use fuel to do works, you can see that in some of the villages in the countryside, they just use showel, landrail… All kind of tools that need man strength. Like the cotton making machines in the US in the early of XVI, or people use showel to dig for the ground more soft and good for plants.

Traditional economy is giving us the chance to work and we don’t have to have competition, and we can decide what we want to do, there no one here to control us. We can live well just by trading, traditional farming method, and our family relationship will be closer together. We can farm on our land, as many plant and vegetables as we want, and we use those plants for food, or trade with others. We can work, and make our family relationship closer together, we can have a good life when we living in a traditional economy.
