For Mate to say that all addictive drug use is caused from neglect issues is not accurate because he does not account for the people who do drugs because they want to. In spite of Mate’s lack of information, his use of hard evidence, and personal anecdotes aides in validating his argument. Scientific examples are
Chapter 13 Case Study: Playing “Chicken” with Gay Marriage 8 February 2015 1) Was the CEO wise in making his anti-gay marriage views known, exposing his company to such controversy? I don’t think that Mr. Cathy was wise in voicing his views the way he did. Since Chick-Fil-A has been around it has had a reputation as a faith-based company, so most people already assumed the beliefs he threw in the public’s face. Two years after the controversy exploded, Huffington Post published a follow-up article about the incident. “Chick-fil-A President and CEO Dan Cathy apparently laments getting the fast-food chain involved in the debate over marriage equality, but he isn't taking back his anti-gay comments (Sieczkowski, 2014).” Cathy also stated, “Every leader goes through different phases of maturity, growth and development and it helps by recognizing the mistakes that you make,” Cathy told the AJC.
I feel that he should have referred him to another therapist instead of thinking about himself. Dr. Marvin also had an increase willingness to push the sale of his book Baby Steps for the sale of his book and maybe in hopes that it would help Bob Wiley just until he returned from his month long vacation. I believe that Dr. Marvin was thinking of himself and his television interview over the care of a patient. Betty, the switchboard operator, had an ethical dilemma when Bob repeatedly asked for a connection to Dr. Marvin. She knew that it was not permitted to do so and that all of Dr. Marvin’s calls where to be given to another Dr., but instead she sent the call through.
Dan Freda June 4, 2012 Drug Trials-The Constant Gardener In Ms. Shah’s essay she details the experimental drug testing practices of the pharmaceutical industry in developing nations, as well as the inherent consequences and questionable ethical tactics of such practices. She reveals that recently the pharmaceutical industry has been outsourcing an increasing percentage of drug trials outside of the United States and Europe and into developing nations of Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Due to environmental and industrial conditions, the sick are in greater numbers and are more willing to participate in drug trials. This is due to the lack of alternative means of acquiring drugs or proper medical treatment. It is evident in Shah’s essay that those participating in the these trials generally receive no medical benefit from the research conducted, and in many cases are being given drugs that do not have a strong correlation to the medical needs of the populations in which they live.
This just goes to show that there is drug-testing going on all over the United States in many different ways. In some cases drug testing is very effective, but overall drug testing is not very accurate or beneficial in the workplace. Unless someone showed up for work under the influence of drugs or alcohol and the employer wants proof that this person is in fact using drugs or alcohol then drug testing in the workplace is meaningless. After conducting research on the subject of random drug testing in the workplace we have concluded that random drug testing does not work. Not to say that it does not have an impact or that it is ineffective to companies or businesses, but this does not work because the tests are not always one hundred percent accurate.
Professor in criminal law and immigration law van Kalmthout, from the University of Tilburg, already in 2008 presented objections against alien detention in The Netherlands, in a report from the IOM (International Organisation Migra-tion): “Alien detention is inhumane and doesn’t have the desired effects.” After the fire in the Schiphol Detention Centre in 2006, alien detention in The Netherlands got a lot of critique from different angles, but there is still evidence that for many people in detention centres the situation didn’t improve since then. In different media people tell their stories about their time in detention and their experiences in those centres: Being locked up without any information about the time of release, being put in an isolation cell, etcetera. Van Kalmthout states that no other country than The Netherlands makes that much use of imprisonment as a means to get people out of the country. Furthermore, there is no limit to the detention period: “You can hold someone in jail as long as there is a prospect for deportation, and that takes up to sometimes twenty months. The judges quite easily assume that there is a prospect for deportation.” On the criminalization of being illegal in The
Alex was initially chosen and soon learned that this “therapy” was more like torture and he was forced to watch countless hours of gruesome crimes, some that he committed himself. After finishing, Alex found himself feeling physically sick at the thought of any violence whatsoever. Initially in the end Alex’s bad deeds catch up with him and he ends up in the hospital. Unfortunately due to the beatings he received and attempted suicide all the mind tricks he was under were completely gone and he remained the same kid as he was at the beginning of the novel. This book was published in 1962 by Anthony Burgess.
Cohn does not agree with this parallel because it allows the nuclear strategists to be completely “removed from the reality of a bomb.” By this, she means the men do not associate these nuclear bombs with the real world or the damage that could potentially be done to it. In Cohn’s opinion, using domestic imagery takes the men’s “accountability” away from their actions. Along with “RVs,” nuclear strategists employ a number of domesticated images such as, “the Christmas tree farm” of missiles in the submarines, or the president’s annual stockpile memorandum called the “shopping list.” Cohn is convinced that this type of language should be of concern to the human population. She argues, “[t]he imagery that domesticates, that humanizes insentient weapons, may also serve, paradoxically, to make it all right to ignore sentient human being.” Cohn is stating that because domestic words are being used, the nuclear strategists tend to exclude human beings as any source of concern compared to the concern of the weapons systems. Cohn believes that the conversations about these nuclear technologies should never stop because it the human population’s “survivability” that is at
Running Head: MYTHS ON DRUG TRAF 1 1 1. Good job on your title page! [Denise Long (TA)] Myths on Drug Trafficking and the Ghetto Lisa Priebe ENG122: English Composition II Doctor Candy Henry October 6, 2012 Drug trafficking in the United States has depleted the country drastically and the actions that have been taken to eliminate the problem have not been very successful. The 2 law enforcement’s focus is not directed in the proper areas and it needs to be rerouted to where it begins and where the biggest problems stem from. Until the focus is taken away from the ghetto as the core of the drug business the amount of drugs in our society will not decrease.
Good afternoon I propose today that we, as citizens of the United States, demand that all drugs be de-criminalized. With that being said, I do not want this to be taken as an argument for a “pro-drug” agenda and for the U.S. to become the next Amsterdam. I believe that the “war on drugs” does not benefit the society or the economy of the American people and that other means of drug prevention should be put into place. If nobody minds I would like to ask a few quick questions, By a show of hands: * How many of you have had a loved one who has been addicted to drugs? (Alcohol, Nicotine, Caffeine [if your body becomes dependent on it, it’s a drug]) * * How many of you have had a loved one who did drugs and never had a problem with it?
