One of the main things that employers will have to do in order to make money will be to reduce hours, limit job creation, and increase prices. Many believe the minimum wage jobs are not meant to be a career, they are transitional jobs. Therefore minimum wage employees should receive transitional pay. A vast majority of the employees who attain minimum wage jobs have families that are on welfare, so they may receive Link, W.I.C., and Section 8 living therefore their needs are taken care of if they live within their means. Major corporations like McDonald’s and Walmart will barely be affected by the increase but the small businesses will be a thing of the past and slowly but surely fade away.

Internal Memorandum TO: Dane Johnson, CEO Toy Company We”R” FROM: Jane Doe, Division Manager DATE: November 11, 2010 RE: Analysis of discriminatory claim against the company under Title VII of Civil Rights Act 1964, constructive discharge. Recently it was brought to my attention that a former employee has filed a claim against the company under Title VII of Civil Rights Act 1964 stating constructive discharge and religious discrimination due to the recent shift schedule changes. Constructive discharge occurs when an employee feels he or she is forced to quit their position because the employer has made working conditions intolerable. Definition of intolerable workplace practice is when the employee feels discriminated against, harassed, has negative pay or benefits and/or a work overload. Under most circumstances, when an employee voluntarily quits their position they forfeit their right to sue the company for wrongful termination and in addition, they cannot receive any unemployment benefits.

He says technology is eliminating the need for them because you can make chips much simpler with a computer than a human worker. So yes, it seems that the more technology we are creating the less highly educated workers we will need. Section 2 is where he goes on to talk about the working classes and how since 1990 the U.S job market is “hollowing” out. The high and low paying jobs are increasing while the middle wage jobs are all disappearing. The reason for the job market turning this way is the fact that technology hurts those who do physical work and helps those who work with their mind.
Alexander decided that to improve morale within the armed forces, service in the army could no longer be given as a punishment in a court of law, the term of service was reduced by ten years and punishments within the army were made much less severe. The difficulties were also due to Russia’s small industrial force and poor travel routes, while it had the biggest army in the world, badly made roads and antiquated weaponry kept the military from reaching its full potential. The first and only of Alexander’s industrial reforms to be implemented during his reign as Tsar was the building of the first Russian railway. Alexander had many other industrial reforms planned, but due to his assassination, these were put in place during the reign of his son Alexander III. Alexander also realised that in order for the country to move forward industrially, it had to move away from its dependence on serfdom and its archaic social system.
Taven Parker Sociology 142 ID# 005350798 They stole our jobs! “‘Let’s make sure people are educated so they can fill the jobs of the 21st century’” (President Bush, “That Good Education Might Not Be Enough”, Gosselin, pg 1). To a young, naïve individual that doesn’t understand the ways of the world quite yet, this might sound like a promising statement. Let us forget about the fact that companies and corporations want to make more money, so they outsource their working positions to other countries so they can pay them less for the same job. Let us forget about billions of dollars that American companies save by paying foreign wages rather than our minimum wage.
Even though union members—those who keep their jobs--- get their wages increased and enjoy improved working conditions and benefits, the economic issues that most unions brings to the United States outbalance the positive effects. As the United States competes with the rest of the world, firms struggle when one of their highest costs is directly related to labor. In the article Labor Unions by Morgan Reynolds, the author accurately explains this phenomenon: while higher wages are successfully achieved, they simultaneously reduce the number of jobs available in unionized firms. This occurs because of the basic law of demand: once prices of labor rise, then employers will purchase less of it. Hence such members’ benefits are achieved at the expense of consumers, nonunion workers, already unemployed people, taxpayers, and corporation owners (Reynolds,
Prior to the blast, the leaders of United Mine Workers Local 52 wrote to the governor, complaining of conditions in No. 5, so this information was public.

Discussing with the public, he tries to express that developments will dependably be enhanced, how productive is it in fact, in the event that it is never taking care of business. (Document 7) In the first century BCE, a Han government official, Huan Guan, expresses how he believes the non-advanced tools are of much better use than the advanced tools because the old tool are easier to work them and less complicated. The advanced tools were harder for the laborers to use in which caused the production of iron and salt to decrease. Since the production was decreasing the prices were increasing and it
