Essays on Burden

Tax that should be paid of the employees is based on their income. In the United States, employees pay taxes through the progressive tax system. It means the higher the income, the higher the amount of tax that should be paid. Taxes are also commonly deducted from paycheck of the employees by the employers (Bernard, 2009). In some cases, employees view tax as a burden due to the high amounts of paper works. However, most of them do not consider lowering their tax burden. Annual tax bill could be legally reduced in several ways. In most cases, lowering the ...

Introduction

The film, “If these Walls Could Talk,” is a compilation of three generational segments of stories that exonerate the plight of women in the society against the general view of the dominant sex. This film was released in 1996, and it exclusively discusses the controversial issue of abortion, which seeps in three distinct generations. The three segments of the film entail different generations and decades, but the setup for the entire story transpires in the same house. The first story is a widow, whose husband was killed on the battlefield (Stuart, 2008). Demi Moore is the woman in the ...

Introduction

Arabs, particularly from Middle East and North Africa have unique psychological challenges that are associated with the back rash that has been brought about by terrorism. In addition to the increased misconception of their religion being associated with the vice, they also face cultural challenges that dictate how they are supposed to live. There are numerous studies that have been carried out among the Arab women on the subject of their mental health. This paper will address the epidemiology of their condition, focusing on the special group on the immigrants, while comparing them with their counterparts at home and ...

The contemporary situation in the U.S. regarding its foreign policy is still unknown. By and large, the latter’s foundations for the next four years will be defined by the President through his behavior on the international arena and the relevant orders. However, the stable to some extent foreign policy of the United States can be different from the previous years. In fact, the worries have been expressed throughout the presidential campaign, as two adverse points of view were supported. One of them was to remain the supporter of NATO, alien for all the friendly states of Europe, East ...

As a representative of my department, it would be my initial duty to oversee those who could possibly lose access to healthcare, or not seek it when concerning the repeal of ACA. With the increase of potential debt, aggressive collection tactics, and full exposure to all health costs, individuals with serious illnesses once covered by various ACA provisions will be left with nothing. In particular, individuals with preexisting conditions will often be uninsured entirely, and will often be individuals in need of care the most often. They may also qualify as a group in need of the highest quality ...

With these social changes, new demands have been imposed on the healthcare sector to provide health services in ways that promote social justice. According to ...

The high percentage of death in intensive care unit is always attributed to the withdrawal of life support machine. In Australia, research shows that a significant proportion of deaths that occurred in the intensive care unit preceded a decision supporting the withdrawal of the life support and this is a case in many countries across the globe including Australia. Withdrawal of life support refers to the process of discontinuing critical care treatment for a patient who is terminally ill, and the decision can be made by the family, government or doctor (Way, Anthony, & Curtis, 2002). The family can make ...

One of the fundamental methods of determining liability in Tort Law is the “but-for” test. According to the test, liability is analyzed by asking the question: but-for the defendant’s negligence, would the plaintiff have been injured or harmed? If the answer is no, then the defendant, and only the defendant, is liable for the plaintiff’s harm. While the “but-for” is a Tort Law fundamental, it sometimes proves inadequate in determining a defendant’s liability. Consequently, Tort Law has developed other means of determining the cause of a plaintiff’s injury in fact. One of the alternatives to ...

Since Vietnam, there has been much debate about the effectiveness of a military draft in uniting Americans in times of crisis and keeping the armed forces representative of all of America. Proponents of an American military draft believe that our current armed forces are not reflective of our diverse society because there is no requirement to join the war. While it is true that the armed forces do not actively reflect the American population, proponents of an American military draft are wrong in thinking a requirement to kill or die for country is a tool that can be used ...

Health care has always been a basic human need and a part of the heritage of people. As a result, health care can be considered as a product of the collective efforts of the previous generations. Moreover, taking into account the fact that every human being represents the human race, he or she has an undeniable claim upon medical aid. However, despite the fact that providing health care is the state’s obligation, its fulfillment encounters numerous problems in the US. American health care has gone through significant historical changes that have led to the recognition of the health ...

Question 1

The deficit can be best reduced by a combination of spending cuts and raising taxes. However, spending cuts are more effective in reducing the deficit. Raising taxes should be as limited as possible to avoid undesirable economic consequences (Mankiw, 2015). Raising income tax adversely affects the living standards of the citizens. Besides, an increase in corporate taxes may lead to higher prices of goods and services, a reduction in employment and some companies shifting their production and other activities to countries with favorable tax policies. Reducing government spending is key to ensuring a balanced budget as well as reducing ...

Part 1

Part 2 I agree with Akers & Chingos (2014) that, “increases in lifetime incomes of college-educated Americans have more than kept pace with increase in debt loads.” According to their research, the average household with student debt has experienced an increase in annual income of $7400 while total debt increased by only eighteen thousand dollars. The statistics show that income of educated Americans has been increasing at a faster rate than the increase in student debt and the increased annual income can pay the additional debt within two to three years (Akers & Chingos, 2014). The increase in borrower’s income ...

Health professionals have recognized and embraced the importance of tailored health messages and health campaigns that are based on social support groups that target populations and help to reduce the gaps in delivering health information to different groups. In the attempt to reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS in developing countries such as Uganda, study findings indicate that issues such as perception of risk, individual knowledge, attitudes and emotions, and policy issues have been critical in the HIV-related campaigns that seek to promote behavioral change (Kaufman, Cornish, Zimmerman, & Johnson, 2014). In addition, the HIV/AIDS infection rate in the country remains ...

We have recently come to a time where college education has grown to mean little apart from the increasing concern over high college tuition. Maybe it is only fair given the unreasonably huge cost which the colleges are charging, one which is rising even faster than inflation itself. But it is worth exploring the true benefit which is beyond the monetary cost itself here. College is far beyond its worth in money and people from previous generations are quite likely to be in agreement of what college meant and the benefits that it brought into their lives. With all ...

The President,

United States of America. Introduction The concept of corporate ethics is widely accepted today. In order to stabilize the growth and development of the overall U.S economy, industries regardless of their nature or size must be instructed to follow certain ethical guidelines. In the current corporate environment, it is advisable for the U.S government to introduce three key changes to its corporate governance framework. First, there should be a single body or statutory regime to deal with corporate governance affairs in the country. Second, corporate ethics is essential to distinguish the roles of chairman and chief executive officer in ...

What are the determinants of the Deadweight Loss?

Introduction The deadweight problem happens when the government through an attempt to increase their earnings from the goods in a country increases the taxation on them. It happens when they impose a certain amount of tax on certain commodities in the market and the end consumer as well as the producer in charge of the production process forced to lose the whole or part of their surplus. The loss they both suffer is the deadweight loss. The government has the right to earn some form of income from the trade activities within their borders. However, they also need to ...

The ultimate goal of Minimally Invasive Multivessel Coronary Surgery (MICS) is treating multivessel coronary artery diseases in an endoscopic manner. There is sufficient progress made in minimally invasive surgery where the burden of the patient is minimized to a lower amount. Rodriguez & Ruel, (2016) in their observation notes that in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), minimally invasive surgery is used for assistance in minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MICS-CABG) as well as robot-assisted CABG. In MICS-CABG, the surgeon positions small incision than under conventional surgery and conducts the operation on a beating heart. Almost 2.8 vessels are ...

Introduction

Data from the US Census Bureau shows that in 2014, some 33 million people (10% of the population) in the United States did not have health insurance (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development -OECD, 2015). While all governments should offer universal healthcare to their people, some poor countries have plenty of socio-economic complexities to handle it, and for now developed countries like the United States are the ones highly capable of offering free healthcare to all their citizenry. The United States has one of the most unstable healthcare systems in terms of its affordability and access to all citizens ...

Obesity

Introduction Even if obesity has tapered off in the United States and contrary to our very worst fears, it is clear that dropping the overall rate of 38% of obese adults is a challenge that one can take on from a public health standpoint (“Obesity Rates”, 2017). Without a doubt, the Root Cause Analysis tool can come in handy here given that its five clear steps can help us get to the crux of the problem (“Root Cause”, 2017). So, without any further ado, let’s find long lasting solutions for the obesity problems in the United States. In ...

Vaccination is an exercise that has been practiced for decades and is considered as an efficient way of managing communicable diseases. Adult vaccination has significant impacts on enhancing public health as it reduces health complications or deaths from infectious (Tan, 2015). However, most people do not appreciate the need for adult vaccination, an aspect that has led to low rates of adult immunization. This paper evaluates adult vaccination as a health care policy by discussing why the issue is gaining attention from different decision makers across the globe. The study further reveals on the right approach to utilize on ...

Introduction

Milton Friedman was a renowned economist and a reputable advisor of the United President Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher who was a Conservative British Prime Minister. Friedman developed an influential and controversial manifesto on the role of the government in a free society on his work titled Capitalism and Freedom. His fundamental objective was to promote the laissez-faire economic policy by often disapproving the interventionist policies held by the government and their cost in economic efficiency and personal freedom within and outside the United States. It is with this light that Friedman provide his view on the significance of ...

There is not a single best way to reduce the deficit in the country by 60% in the next 8 years. The short as well as long-term consequences of spending cuts and tax increases must be considered. The possible way is however the combination of both. With cutting the spending and increasing the taxes the reduction of economic growth can be seen. However, the economic deficit must be reduced because of the current increasing interest costs and spending among others on Social Security, and health insurance and it is estimated to grow to about 100% by the year 2035 ( ...

Part 1

The country that I will focus on this quarter is Kenya. That follows the reason that the country’s major health documents such as the publications by the Ministry of Health are written in the English language that I am fluent in, and understand quite well. Besides, Kenya is classified as a lower middle-income country and has severe disease burden including HIV, Malaria, and tuberculosis, which are all eligible for the global funds. Not to mention, regardless of its considerable low economic status, Kenya is the leading African nation, which contributes significantly towards global health.

Benefits and drawbacks of VAT

As a taxing system, VAT has been used globally since the 1950’s and it presents unique benefits and drawbacks in itself. First, VAT is beneficial in generating income for governments which is important to cover government expenses as Stiglitz and Rosengard, (2015) observe. Since VAT is vast and is imposed to most produced goods and services, most governments regard it as money production engine. Through this taxation system also, tax evasion is minimized. Consequentially, a reliable income source is achieved by governments. Through value added tax system, it is also possible to enter into regional protocols (Pomeranz, 2015). ...

Gap in Care Quality during the Discharge Process for Care Coordination for Patients with Chronic Illnesses

Patients in the United States who experience long-term illnesses may change from one health care setting to another. They might move from home to a hospital, to an assisted living facility, or to other types of residential care. The coordination of care for patients with chronic illnesses is reliant on the abilities of health care providers to interact effectively in order to provide optimum outcomes (NTCC, 2010). In order to determine the best possible option for the patient, care coordinators must accurately assess the patient’s condition, reach a consensus on prognosis, evaluate possible resources, and develop and initiate ...

Diseases like pre-eclampsia can strike women of any age and with any socioeconomic background. The issues associated with pre-eclampsia are global, but there are certain populations that are more heavily impacted than others—and these populations are the ones that require investigation (Sibai, Dekker & Kupferminc, 2005). Pre-eclampsia is a condition that is associated with high maternal blood pressure and protein in maternal urine, but it is a ...

Introduction

The Institute of Medicine, U.S.A, identified global health problems as health concerns that transcend national boundaries. These health issues are influenced by environment prevailing in other nations. Thus, there is a need for cooperative action from countries across the globe to find solutions to these concerns. With the kind of high mobility seen today, an epidemic outbreak in Africa, can readily spread to rest of the globe, if measures to contain its spread are not taken on a global scale. Polio eradication, containment of influenza virus, policies to restrict tobacco use are examples of policies that were instituted to ...

There are several movements in healthcare reform in the USA that promote the transition from disease-oriented healthcare to a culture of wellness: the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), the Culture of Health initiative of the Robert Wood Foundation, and the increased focus on person-centered and fundamental care. These three movements respectively drive healthcare reform on the political, community, and nursing practice levels. The ACA extended health insurance and thus improved access to healthcare for at least an additional 50 million Americans who were previously uninsured (Nardin, Zallman, Sayah, & McCormick, 2016). Sections 4103 and 4104 of the act ...

Absolute and comparative advantages. England has absolute advantages in producing scones (50 > 4), Scotland has absolute advantages in sweaters production (2 > 1). As for comparative advantages, England should be focused on scones production as well (alternative costs for 50 scones is only 1 sweater); Scotland has comparative advantages in sweaters production (alternative costs for 1 sweater is only 20 scones). So, for both absolute and comparative advantages, England should produce scones, Scotland – sweaters. If England and Scotland decide to trade, Scotland will trade sweaters to England. It could be explained by theory of absolute and comparative advantages ( ...

The ACA establishes a relative decrease in healthcare costs for some, improve access to healthcare for others, and an improvement of quality of care. While many are impacted by these stipulations, perhaps none are more affected than the elderly. Medicaid is expanding in many states, as well as nationally at a rapid pace thanks to the Act. For example, the Act’s Title III asserts that today’s healthcare system is ensuring Medicaid’s dedication to future generations, and it is doing so by expanding on the state level, as well as the federal level. It is able to ...

Imagining a family whose income is $100,000 per year with a burden of repaying student loans, I think it will make perfect sense if the payer defaults. The priorities in a family set up should be listed in an order of necessity and importance, and before one gets to repaying loans, he has to sort expenses like rent and food as well as clothing. Other necessities in this list will include budgeting for gas fuel and other facilitation costs. If the income is not enough to cover for these expenses, then it is perfectly okay for the loanee ...

Culture is definitely one of the inherent elements for every person which affects the way one thinks, acts, reacts to the situations, makes decisions and interacts with others. Staying mostly invisible, the aspect of culture, though, is present in everything we do. Therefore being a nurse in the country of diverse cultures, or the one which is completely different from your own, means considering cultural issues and trying to understand them. Additionally, what may considerably differ from country is not only culture, but also the factors of risk. Therefore this essay will consider risk factors in India, and the ...

The Seven Years’ War eventually ended in favor of the British however it came at a tough price. War, in any case, is an expensive ordeal, even when if it were to occur in the 18th century. In order for England to finance the war, the country took huge loans from the British and Dutch banks. The amount of debt had surmounted to £75 million in the year 1754 to about £133 million in 1763 (“Milestones: 1750–1775”). In order to pay the banks back and ease the country’s financial burden, the British raised the taxes on its ...

The primary objective for the formation of the European Economic Community (ECC) was to create a common market to enhance the achievement of a trading advantage over other Atlantic states. The member states hoped that the move would spur growth by promoting marketing scale and capitalizing on specialization among the member states. However, the ECC faced many technicalities when creating a common market due to lack of strategic decision-making structures and protectionist attitude adopted by members. It was especially difficult to remove barriers and enforce common trade regulation. For a common market to have some effect, freedom of capital, ...
