Petrecca, L. (2012). 'Supersized' drinks on the way out in NYC. Accessed From http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/story/2012/09/13/supersized-drinks-on-the-way-out-in-nyc/57775970/1

This form of law is almost impossible to regulate on individuals considering that even if the supersized drinks are reduced to the 16-ounce cap, consumers still have the choice to consume more than one cup. A person may also opt to buy sugary drinks from the grocery and convenience stores which would not be affected by such law. To drink or not to drink is solely a personal choice. As such, a law seeking to reduce the quantity of supersized drinks as a way to improve health is myopic. Instead the government should endeavor to change the mentality of the consumers through ...

The Conscription of Wealth: Mass Warfare and the Demand for Progressive Taxation (2010) by Kenneth Scheve and David Stasavage.

Scheve and Stasavage assert that redistribution of wealthy through progressive taxation has remained a major concern for governments for many years. Most governments adopt tax policies, which support the use of progressive taxation to lower income disparity, promote investment and minimize collective sacrifice and suffrage of citizens in warfare (Scheve & Stasavage 529). However, the increase in demand for progressive taxation is fuelled by existence of political parties, which mobilize mass to participate in warfare and the establishment of ...

Conservatism based on Russell Kirk and Phyllis Schlafly’s Works

Conservatism can be defined as a social and or political philosophy that favors the retention of traditional social orders and institutions. This means that in a typical argument between liberals and traditionalists, conservatives would vote for the retention of established dogmas, principles, and institutions, emphasizing the importance of continuity and stability. Following the Second World War, countries, not just the United States, have made great progress in making reforms, either to their existing social, economic, and or political orders. While this may be something that would immediately alarm the conservatives, both Russell Kirk and Phyllis Schlafly presented good points of explanations ...

Immigration in the US has for long been a controversial debate, having both its pros and cons.

Often there are clashes on the basis of colour, creed or any other discrimination the human conscience has crop up. Unsurprisingly, the US Government in various states is now coming up with stronger laws and stricter punishments to drive these illegal citizens ...

In the late 1820’s, the Northern Carolina became more industrialized as the Southern remained non-developed. The Congress had passed a high protective tariff in 1828 that made the southern states more furious because they thought the tariff only benefited the northern states. The southern claimed that high tariff on imports were imposed to them leading to increased costs of importing products.

“Walmart Warns about Holiday Earnings’

This article discusses the issue of decreased earnings from major retailers like Walmart and Target.

Retailers blame the cut back on food stamps and the unusually cold winter for causing economic distress upon their main customer base.

Introduction

Leadership and motivation are concepts that are inherent in any achievement of desired goals. Every individual or organization with personal or corporate objectives respectively needs to apply leadership and motivation concepts. Leadership goes hand in hand with the amount of influence that a given person can impact on his followers. The ability to convince followers towards a common goal determines a leader’s performance. In my opinion, motivation is the basis for all achievements in all aspects. Leadership influences the performance of any individual or organization. In addition, it influences how parties involved in an organization’s activities are motivated towards the ...

After a History in which only the societies’ aristocrats governed the political sphere of the country, Jackson’s decision to vie for the presidential seat was shocking to most Americans (132).

Analysis of “On Terror,” by Philip E. Devine and Robert J. Rafalko

Introduction

There have been several views on terrorism. However, research on terrorism differs from the standard social science research. As one is dealing with underground organizations, often there is little or incomplete data. Terrorism is like a war in the shadows that creates massive publicity. For the majority of researchers, it can be dangerous to do investigative research in danger zones, and therefore, majority of the research is carried out on the basis of reports released by the government and media news stories. Research on terrorism has more often ...

Local governments have the responsibility of taking care of their residents and inhabitants.

Prisons, Privatization, Patronage

Summary
The article, “Prisons, Privatization, Patronage” by Paul Krugman highlighted that the government’s decision to privatize prisons and related public services, such as halfway houses, has come to face its consequences—escaped prisoners committing crimes all over again, sometimes even worse than what they have been convicted for. Krugman cited The New York Times’ investigative reports on this issue and case stories on what has been taking place in the state of New Jersey. These studies reveal that such private facilities are inadequately managed, with insufficient number of personnel, and poor prisoner monitoring equipment. However, Krugman also ...

In the first point of the article, the author says that Talk radio's listeners are disproportionately old and male. I agree with this point because most of the young and medium-aged people are out there working, which means they have less time to listen to talk radio shows. Most young people are interested in reading articles and watching television shows, but not listening to talk radio shows. In radio programs nowadays, most shows are conservative talk programs and political talk shows. The expected audience in political shows is elder people, especially men as women are busy running other errands. ...

The impact of colonialism can be seen in major processes like political structures of countries in North Africa. This is experienced through various forms such as political fragility and instability.

Lack of known common identity weakens bonds leading to disunity. This results to failure of structures used in solving domestic and foreign problems. Also, the right to self-determination between rulers and the ones being ruled in some situations is wanting. Due ...

Such household start ups in poor countries create a thick net of vendors and suppliers so they are active contributors to supply-demand factor. Even if demand ...
