Comparisons

Sometimes professional ideas don't align with a business' strategy and customer demand. Even though the professionals are trying to do what they think is right for the business, they may champion the wrong ideas.

One point would be that HDI incorporates policies such as health and eduction. This means that it can better represent the impact of governments as it demonstrates the impact of the supply-side policies they can utilise. Furthermore, due to the fact HDI comprises of expected years in education and life expectancy at birth, HDI serves to illustrate the potential development of a country's living standards as it might take time for an increase in expected years of education to affect GDP and living standards.

Ancient transportation comprised waterway (sea and river) and land transportation by foot and packs or animals ridden or towing carts and wagons. Land transportation was limited by the low loads and slowness, which made carriage of goods uneconomic beyond a couple of hundred kilometers (draft animals would eat the equivalent of the loads they drew) So water transport was the only economic means of commercial transport.

Today's transportation offers choice of high capacity, high speed road, rail,water and air movement of people and cargo.

Pros: Higher rail traffic volume, which takes away a significant amount of road traffic, both freight as well as passenger. Also decreased localized pollution, especially if the line is electrified.

Con's: displacement of people who live near the railway, because of condemnation of their land (ie literally taking away their backyard to make room for the new line). Rail also has to be very linear, flat and straight, especially if it's a high-speed line. This causes significant increases in building and infrastructure costs (digging tunnels, grading, long-term maintenance, etc.).

Another con: many people or many tons of freight can be inconvenienced if the rail line is damaged and there's no redundancy available.

First of all both groups were Roman and had the sense of Roman patriotism. While initially the plebeians were the lower, poorer class, by the mid to late republic they were generally wealthy and were considered part of the aristocracy along with the patricians. Both classes held public office and the consulship.

A recession is a low point in the economy.

A depression is an extreme low point in the economy that lasts a long period of time.

We are at a recession, in the 1930's their was a depression in the US.

If markets functioned perfectly, there wouldn't be any need for regulation. There would be enough buyers and sellers in any market that none of them would have market power, there wouldn't be any externalities, and everyone would have perfect information, and as a result, everyone's incentives would cause their local choices to guide the market to the most efficient social outcome. In practice, lots of markets are dominated by one or a small number of firms, there are lots of negative and positive externalities, and consumers aren't always well-informed. The idea behind regulation (in theory at least) is that in some markets, under regulation the market will come closer to the outcome of a perfect market than if it were left unregulated - prices will be lower, avoiding deadweight loss, firms will invest heavily into research and development rather than building up piles of cash or paying dividends, etc. The case against regulation: Regulation is created and enforced by the government, which often isn't actually incentivized to create the most efficient outcome. Governments are driven by politics and are heavily influenced by lobbying, the media, and irrational consumer sentiment. And especially with the rate of change of technology, the government often lags behind the development of new markets and important changes in old markets. Even if the government was good at regulating, there are some more reasons why regulation might not be necessary in cases where one firm is dominating a market: A firm that appears to be a monopoly based on a narrow definition of the market might actually compete in a more general market, providing an incentive for them to price competitively and invest in future developments (airlines compete against other forms of transportation, Facebook competes against email, etc). Also, the threat of entry by a new competitor can motivate a firm to keep prices down and keep research going, even when that competitor doesn't exist yet. Foreign competitors often can't be regulated by a government very well, and so regulating domestic firms can put them at a disadvantage in the global economy. Even when a firm is monopolizing a market and can charge prices far above what they'd be in a competitive environment, there's an argument that this serves as a reward and can incentivize a large amount of research and development when the market is new. For example, if a new market starts out competitive, and founders and investors behind many of the companies know that the value of winning the market is very high (because they will be able to charge monopoly rents), in theory, that will cause much of the surplus that is expected to be generated later to get invested immediately. This causes technological development to happen much faster than it otherwise would, and the monopoly profits go toward "paying back" this investment. Under this view, anti-trust regulation discourages investment and slows down progress in new markets. For example, Facebook stock prices are lower than they otherwise would be because of the expectation of future regulation - this means the company has less money to invest in development than it otherwise would.

what are the rules of basketball? There are 13 oringinal rules in basketball. Here are the 13 rules of the game of basketball as invented by Dr. James Naismith in 1881: 1. The ball may be thrown in any direction with one or both hands. 2. The ball may be batted in any direction with one or both hands. 3. A player cannot run with the ball. The player must throw it from the spot on which he catches it, allowances to be made for a man who catches the ball when running if he tries to stop. 4. The ball must be held by the hands. The arms or body must not be used for holding it. 5. No shouldering, holding, pushing, tripping or striking in any way the person of an opponent shall be allowed; the first infringement of this rule by any player shall come as a foul, the second shall disqualify him until the next goal is made, or, if there was evident intent to injure the person, for the whole of the game, no substitute allowed. 6. A foul is striking the ball with the fist, violation of Rules 3, 4, and such as described in Rule 5. 7. If either side makes three consecutive fouls it shall count as a goal for the opponents (consecutive means without the opponents in the meantime making a foul). 8. A goal shall be made when the ball is thrown or batted from the grounds into the basket and stays there, providing those defending the goal do no touch or disturb the goal. If the ball rests on the edges, and the opponent moves the basket, it shall count as a goal. 9. When the ball goes out of bounds, it shall be thrown into the field of play by the person touching it. He has a right to hold it unmolested for five seconds. In case of a dispute the umpire shall throw it straight into the field. The thrower-in is allowed five seconds; if he holds it longer it shall go to the opponent. If any side persists in delaying the game the umpire shall call a foul on that side. 10. The umpire shall be the judge of the men and shall note the fouls and notify the referee when three consecutive fouls have been made. He shall have power to disqualify men according to Rule 5. 11. The referee shall be judge of the ball and shall decide when the ball is in play, in bounds, to which side it belongs, and shall keep the time. He shall decide when a goal has been made and keep account of the goals, with any other duties that are usually performed by a referee. 12. The time shall be two fifteen-minute halves, with five minutes rest between. 13. The side making the most goals in that time shall be declared the winner. In the case of a draw the game may, by agreement of the captains, be continued until another goal is made. The roof was suspended by poles in the middle of the court, that had giant fire heaters built onto them (it was cold as it was Winter). These were used by the players to push the opponent into them and burn them so they could not play. It depends on the level, as NBA rules differ from college rules and HS rules. But the biggest difference is that in the original rules there was no dribbling or moving with the ball. Other differences are time, NBA is four 12 minute quarters, three pointers, the basket is different, there are no automatic points awarded for fouls but there are free throws, and there are many others. 1. The ball may be thrown in any direction with one or both hands. 2. The ball may be batted in any direction with one or both hands. 3. A player cannot run with the ball. The player must throw it from the spot on which he catches it, allowances to be made for a man who catches the ball when running if he tries to stop. 4. The ball must be held by the hands. The arms or body must not be used for holding it. 5.

During the Battle of the Atlantic, the goal of the German Navy was to prevent Great Britain from receiving food and military supplies and to prevent the United States from building up their military forces in England. By doing this, they hoped to force Britain to surrender and to prevent and invasion of Europe.

Columbus began forming colonies for Spain in 1492 and 1493. They colonized for about another century.

The reformers believed that the Pope represented that "man of sin" in the Bible and believed the Papacy to be the antichrist system (little horn of Daniel 7).

Jamestown was founded first, and was a financial venture (they hoped to make money) Plymouth was settled for religious reasons. First settlers at Jamestown were all men, some of the first settlers at Plymouth were women.

The comparism between the definition of economics given by Alfred Marshall & Robbins is that it both studies human behaviors.

Pros:

-Heavy industry (improve standard of living for citizens)

- Ability to fight (helped when World War II came around)

Cons:

- People starved either through refusing to hand over their crops or having no food (food was being sold to foreign markets)

26th President

THEODORE ROOSEVELT

PRESIDENCY

His 7 Years, 171 Days as President:

PRO

He was the first man to use the office of the presidency to combat the abuses of big business. His celebrated "trust-busting" advanced the principle that corporate interests must be subordinate to national interests. In his handling of the Anthracite Coal Strike, he dealt fairly with the miners' union and enraged their bosses, thereby becoming a hero to millions of workingmen. He signed into law the Pure Food and Drug Act to protect the public and established the Dept. of Commerce and Labor to give government a greater role in the economy.

CON

Despite the fanfare and all of his colorful words, TR's economic "progressivism" was more show than substance. In his reforms, Roosevelt attempted to satisfy the popular desire for change without any basic reforms in business institutions. His closest advisers were bankers and businessmen, and in his election bid in 1904 he had the support of J. P. Morgan, Henry Clay Frick, and the other robber barons.

PRO

Roosevelt led the U.S. to a new position of power in the family of nations. He built the Panama Canal, sent the U.S. fleet around the world to head off threats of Japanese expansion, and intervened to settle the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, for which he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

CON

He was an expansionist and imperialist who helped create great hatred toward the U.S. with his high-handed dealings with Latin American republics. He completely disregarded Congress in all his major foreign policy decisions and arrogantly told congressmen that there was nothing they could do to stop him.

PRO

Shortly after he was sworn in as president, he invited Booker T. Washington to the White House--the first time a black had been the guest of a president. This caused great indignation throughout the South.

CON

On the night of Aug. 13, 1906, gunfire was heard near Fort Brown, outside Brownsville, Tex., where three companies of black infantrymen were stationed. The town whites, fearing an attack by the blacks, embarked on a shooting spree. One white was killed. The blacks swore they had played no part in the Brownsville raid. Nevertheless, Roosevelt signed a harsh order dishonorably discharging 170 black GIs. Not until John D. Weaver exposed this racial discrimination in a book in 1970 did Congress act on the "black Dreyfus affair," and in 1973 it reversed Roosevelt's infamous order.

PRO

He was our first conservationist president. He awakened in Americans a new concern for our soil and water, and he stressed the need to preserve the remaining wilderness. He set aside 150 million acres of timberland for national use, established 50 game preserves, doubled the number of national parks, and founded 16 national monuments.

CON

Like everything else in his administration, his conservation achievements were exploited to political advantage. The public loved to read accounts of the President's well-publicized hunting and camping expeditions into the wilds.
