Social Security

Dear Mr. President,
Social security program is the backbone of the American society. The current shortfalls in the fund will adversely affect many people in the coming years. Therefore, it is imperative that a long-term solution be found to solve this problem once and for all. The social security fund depends on payroll taxes paid by both workers and employers and the retirement age. Hence, the fiscal problems can only be solved by adjusting three key measures: payroll taxes, pension payouts, and retirement age.
Firstly, the government can increase the payroll tax. Currently, workers pay 6.2% of their ...

Fundraising practices have changed over the recent past with a majority of the shift recorded being the complete shift from transaction to relationships. In order to ensure proper fundraising, development and maintenance of long-term relationships with donors should be enhanced. The relationships maintained may be either aimed at one time donation or lifetime relationships to enhance better donor relationships.
With the complete shift from transaction to donor relationship management approach, it should be more than playing with words. There should be a concise strategy to ensure better donation luring modules that emphasizes on performance rather than the need to generate ...

The allocation of tax dollars is an ever-present debate among Americans, both in and out of legislative positions; one priority in particular is the issue of welfare. In the modern political narrative, there is a perception that 'welfare queens,' those who have the ability or capacity to work but simply accept welfare instead, are a drain on the system. In order to curb this abuse of welfare, the proposition has been made in various state and federal legislatures to implement drug testing policies for welfare recipients. The argument is that this screening would weed out drug users who might theoretically ...

Dear Editor,

I am writing today in response to comments made recently by Congressman Paul Ryan indicating that a massive overhaul of the social security system is needed. While I agree that perhaps the system needs to be tweaked in light of the demographic change that is occurring due to the retirement of the baby boomers, I do not believe that the kind of change Congressman Ryan seeks is going to improve the system, but instead would help to dismantle it.
Ryan’s proposal would cut benefits dramatically and take steps toward privatization. Doing so would break a promise not only to ...

In modern times we are bombarded with so many news stories in our everyday existence it can often be difficult to distinguish the true relevance of this information within our own lives.

With the recent attention focused on the 2012 presidential elections, one key issue that was the focus of many newspaper articles was welfare reform. This is a very complex topic that can confuse or bore the casual ...

Abstract

OPEC is an international cartel aimed at securing interests of the oil producing countries by restricting the oil production levels. The market structure of a cartel is similar to an oligopoly, the only difference being collusion between the dominant players. The paper attempts to understand these market structures, their welfare benefits and how the firms respond in certain situations. Game theory explains the incentive for firms to cheat in a cartel. The future strategy for OPEC is suggested based on synthesis of these concepts. It includes maintaining an active dialogue, designing a detailed disincentive plan and innovation.

Keywords: collusion, cartel, OPEC, oligopoly, ...

The issue of gene patenting is an interesting one, bringing up concerns about the extent to which we ‘own’ our cells, and what rights we have with them. While some believe that, for instance, organ donors do not have the right to tissue that they have donated, others think that there must be some sense of bodily ownership that must be accounted for in issues like these. To that end, the work of Schleiter (2009), Caplan (2010), Satel (2008), and Rubin (2010) will be examined in order to see the ways in which organ and tissue donation intersect with ...

Introduction

Predominantly, economic well-being has great connections with social well-being (Easterlin, 2001). As such, most of the public policies that are intended to improve the social welfare are usually directed towards variables that indicate economic welfare. However, not all aspects of social well-being have direct linkage with economic wellness. Thus, economic progress in a country does not entirely translate to social happiness among citizens since some economic growth policies involve trade-offs between social risk and income growth (Bok, 2009).
In essence, economic well-being entails a measure of economic wellness of citizens in a country ...

APPLICATION OF ECONOMIC CONCEPTS

Economic concepts in all economic systems are interrelated such that a change in a particular variable in a concept affects other variables in other concepts. For example in market determination of prices, the level of supply and demand of commodities in the market plays a large role. The equilibrium prices are determined by the availability of the commodity in the market and the extent to which buyers are willing and able to buy the commodity. Consumers’ ability to purchase the commodities may be affected by various issues like high prices as a result of inflation or unemployment during recession times. At any price less ...

The two main objectives of a healthcare delivery system are to provide healthcare for anybody who needs it, as well as to deliver quality care at a price patients can afford to pay. Countries around the world have a different position on how to deliver these two main objectives. For example, Canada has true universal healthcare. Citizens pay higher taxes in order to afford this healthcare, but in return if an individual is hurt, sick, mental ill, becomes pregnant, needs a dentist, or just has a chest cold, almost all of the expenses are covered at a very reasonable ...

Dear Mr. Buffett:
Can anyone believe that in the American city of Chicago, on an ordinary morning 5,700 children endure a shocking surprise in 190 classrooms at not finding a teacher (Kozol)? What about the stark truth that there are still schools in Chicago helplessly witnessing 700 unlucky children sharing 2 bathrooms, not to mention the strict rations enforced on using toilet papers and towels? One public school in Chicago still conducts classes for the children in an abandoned roller rink with not even a single encyclopedia, leaving a rare exceptional teacher to buy teaching ...

Terrorism has an enormous dependence on surprise. As a result, a terror attack has the massive potential of causing damages to an unprepared, as well as, unwitting target.

For purposes of securing its homeland, setting up intelligence, as well as, warning systems which can detect terrorist activities before their manifestation has been instrumental towards curtailing the attacks in the United States.
