If you look at it from a business perspective, I think it fits due to all the "teams" we have in the workplace.
We have commitees and groups that work together from all sorts of different countries, and we truly do have to act as a team with all the parts made in all different countries.
If you're putting together a car, for example, chances are you're getting parts from china, korea, japan, germany, united states... you can't rely on only yourself for creating a low cost and appealing product. You *have* to be competitive, and to be competitive and successful, you have to have teamwork.
From a personal perspective - I'm not sure. I guess you can look at the fact that we have, in the u.s., all kinds of people in this country from all sorts of different places. To be racist or contriest (I can't remember the exact term for when you think your country is better than someone else's), will show you living in your house by yourself with walls all around.

In the context of world events it barely has any meaning. Governments attempt to put together a coalition of partners to gain some kind of concensus and concerted action, but in reality a country like the US pretty much is on it's own. With ofcourse the exception of our distant cousins in the UK. In sports Lebron gets 80 million to play on a basketball team, and he does try to hand the ball off to his team mates, but lets face it, Lebron is the "I" in "teIam." So, no. Forget about it. We cooperate with each other only as much as we have to. It's all about individual achievement. We're an "Army of One." The mob doesn't get rich. It's the lonely schemer who somehow hits it big.

If you want to be the best you can be, And you are part of a team; then all of the team must work together or you will not be the best at what you do. It takes everyone pulling together to be the best. And no one likes someone who won't pull their own weight!

Is it me, or maybe I'm over simplifying, but, generally when someone says there's no "I" in THE WORD "TEAM", it means that it takes more then one person(I or me) to make something run smoothly: a business, sport franchise, family...it's a group effort..."it takes a village" type of thing; However, there must be a "boarder collie" to run the "sheep", uh, I mean "team", and make sure all is well...Right?

i do not remember on giving governments the means to enact "merciless and unusual punishment." Criminals ought to correctly be wrongfully convicted, and regulations at the instant are not continually merely. An American citizen who blinded and disfigured someone may be despatched to reformatory, really than blinded and disfigured. The founders of u.s. believed that the authorities's means should be restricted through the indisputable fact that is governments, really than inner most persons, who dedicate the worst crimes. I do believe, although, unequal therapy of adult women and men human beings less than the regulation is a severe issue. In eastern international places, women human beings have a tendency to be discriminated by using the courts, while in Western international places, it really is any incorrect way round. God created adult women and men human beings equivalent in dignity. i'm satisfied to you revealed this question, bringing it to human beings's interest that Iranian courts evaluate each and every guy to be properly worth 2 women human beings. It jogs my memory of u.s., even as, for representation applications, a slave changed into counted as 3-fifths of someone (and in the courts, even decrease than that).

Its just as trite and meaningless in the context of world events as it is in the corporate world.
