Issue in literacy

One issue in today's world of literacy that I found interesting was the difficulty people have to getting access to a computer or even the internet becuase of the country they live in and its affects of economic system. The reason why I picked this issue to write about for my research paper was because although many people in America today have full access to the internet I wanted people to understand that technology is also forming a gap between those who have and do not have a computer and countries like China, India and many countries in Africa contain the majority of the population who are illitrate not only in the use of technology becuase they do not have it but in reading and writing as well due to the low income country they live in unlike America which is wealthy.
