A chart in source B shows that the amount of mail that needs to be delivered has greatly decrease over the past two years. The USPS needs to work on streamlined and more effective method of sending mail. Source C states how Potter plans to improve the system. It states, “that could mean an end to Saturday delivers, longer delivery times for letters and packages, higher postage-stamp prices that exceed the rate inflation...” I however, disagree with the methods they are using to attempt to improve the system. I think instead of cutting back on hours, more should work to get mail to a place quickly and efficiently.
David Barajas English/poli.sci. Eric martinsen March 26,2014 War Mentality Before watching these movies, a little doubt set in that between these two movies there would be a difficult time finding differences and similarities because of such a huge time gap between them. The thought process when approaching these great war flicks was the major military advancements the us government has made to the armed forces since the late 70s. To a nice surprise, a common foundation for these great stories were starting to become clear. The more the movie went into depth, the more stronger the similarities and differences presented themselves.
The store has not been able to bring in the same return on investment as the first location. One of the major problems seems to be the median household income for the new location doesn’t support the exact same business model. Kathy should have done more research on the new location to determine customer needs, income level, and population. KFF’s strategic plan was not implemented until 2003, so it appears market research was not conducted prior to expansion. The Del Mar location is at the break-even point, it appears the local economy may not be able to handle the same type of business opportunity as La Jolla.
Wilson and not heath was responsible for a decade of decline and economic failure. (45 marks) Wilson and Heath’s time in office was to begin with optimism both hoping for promising change and attempting to modernise Britain and try and catch up with industrial rivals. Whether it was through a ‘white heat’ or ‘quiet’ revolution, both PM’s promises however never lived up to their expectation, the previous governments had badly hindered the economy for both Wilson and Heath and as a result during their 10 collective years in power resulted in economic decline, instead of promised transformation and advancement of Britain. It is arguable that much of the responsibility of the economic decline in this period could be seen to be Wilson. During
As Baby Boomers grow old and the necessity for health care expands, the United States is expected to have a shortage of nurses. The shortage of nurses has been taking place since World War II, but the major impact to the health care systems have only started to show the past few years. According to Rosseter (2010), “Compounding the problem is the fact that nursing college and universities across the country are struggling to expand enrollment levels to meet the rising demand for nursing care” (p. 1). The reason for this is because there are not many educators to teach nursing. A future concern is the need of nurses is imagined to increase drastically over the next 25 years when the Baby Boomers arrive in their 60s.The common age for registered nurses (RN) is around 45 so the demand for nurses will continue to rise.
2009 Free Response Questions 1. In The Federalist paper number 10, James Madison expressed concern over the possibility that both majority and minority factions would have too much power over government, and he presented ways of minimizing that danger. The United States Constitution established a democratic government but also contained several provisions that limited majority rule. Throughout the next two centuries, the role of majority rule in the United States government and politics continued to change. a.
It hasn’t all happened naturally. Our unique policy model of multiculturalism goes a long way to explain our success. But during the past decade or so, multiculturalism became something of a negative word. In many people’s minds, it seems to privilege cultural diversity over national identity. It seems to show separation rather than integration.
Some federal programs have become so complicated and wasteful that perhaps the states should just let them die. Isabel Sawhill asserted that the two most significant recent changes in U.S. intergovernmental relations have been the enactment of a long-term plan for eventual reduction in federal aid to state and local governments and the substitution of block grants for matching grants. The potentially adverse ramifications of aid reduction have yet to surface because the strong economy has shrunk welfare caseloads and TANF offers states generous short-term increases in assistance relative to what they would receive under the old AFDC program. However, states would probably lower their levels of welfare benefits if the economy fell into recession, the incidence of single-parent families and poverty among children continued to rise, and the long-run caps on
How America Turned Its Dream into a Nightmare Miguel A. Montano Jr. April 4, 2012 English 1302 5/6 Abstract This research paper explains why I believe that the American Dream is no longer as easily attainable as it once was. But also gives some of my personal insight on how we can make it a reality once more. In my opinion the American Dream is the idea that those seeking a better life can find it in the U.S. This belief is unfortunately not as easily attainable as it once due to the immigration laws and economic hardships. Obstacles such as the border wall and visa acceptance are some of the immigration aspects that are currently dissolving the American Dream.
On several occasions, advocates believed they were on the verge of success; yet each time they faced defeat. First major attempt to fix the failing healthcare system was proposed by Clinton administration in 1994. The proposed plan was an enforced mandate for employer-provided health insurance through competitive but closely regulated HMOs (Aaron, 1996, p. 87). The idea of Universal Healthcare was aggressively opposed by conservatives, libertarians, and the health insurance industry. Opposing parties argued that it was overly bureaucratic and restrictive of patient choice.
