It seems to be a legal blunder that is very straight forward, but becomes a heated debate. It begins with the argument should we prosecute a gamer for stealing via the virtual world? Alex Weiss is correct in saying that prosecution for virtual theft is wrong in the scheme of things, because each player reacts differently to behaviors. Even though a person is a “raider” in a game, it doesn’t make them a criminal in the real world. Weiss opens up his article with, “As a reformed online gaming thief, this ruling makes no sense to me.
This disconnection between the government and society shouldn’t be happening because we should know why we have to send our loved ones out to another country to fight for a “cause” that the government thinks is right. Next to war is the conspiracy that the government is tapping our phones and listening in to our conversations. If this is true the thought of this being an attempt of protecting is a bit crazy. For instance, 1984, the main character Winston says that everyone is being watched through a television kind of thing and that they cant commit thought crimes.

Article Analysis University of Phoenix ACC291 Taking a look at whether or not companies are acting ethical because they have integrity or because they have to follow the laws set forth by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 is something all investors should do before they invest. Companies do not always act ethically because they want to be open and honest with their customers, employees, or investors, some do it simply because they have to in order to abide by the laws, rules, and regulations, and then just barely. While reading “Eight Years After The Fact Is SOX Working? A Look At The Brooke Corporation” one can notice several things wrong and ways that could lead to unethical practices and behaviors in accounting.

American citizens pressured the government to regulate cooperations and trade in order to stop them from creating pools, make use of rebates, the monopolization of trade, and take advantage of the consumers which violated lassie faire ideas to a slight degree. Even though the regulations were small and did little to solve the problems presented by the people, it set the precedent for larger and stricter regulations to come into play in the future generations. American citizens also pressured the government to help preserve healthy competition in the business world but only to a minor degree. All of these actions changed the standards of what the government can do in the world of economics forever. Railroad expansion was relatively new during the gilded age.
The Cynical Smirk In this chapter Loeb discusses the cynical mindset we as a people have. He says cynicism is a self imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. He makes the argument that by our passiveness we allow big companies and government officials to do whatever they like. They believe that they are to big to be beat because we let them believe that. As long as we don’t push back, naturally they will continue to keep taking from us and pushing the boundaries.
His previous works of art suggest an anti-war, anti-capitalist stance and this mural follows that theme very well. His ironic view of capitalism is shown in this quote Shah 2 from his book Wall and Piece, "We can't do anything to change the world until capitalism crumbles. In the meantime we should all go shopping to console ourselves." Banksy supports those who are looked down upon by the rich and is a critic of today’s greedy society.

His investigations into the men that claimed wisdom brought about much hostility against him. The real issue in his trial is not “criminal meddling” or that he taught his pupils to disbelieve in the gods or to “make the weaker argument defeat the stronger,” but is really his life style or philosophical life and is that these investigations expose the fact that his accusers pretend knowledge when they are ignorant and they have their reputations to protect as being learned men. The revelations of Socrates could also bring about the loss of power and worth of the ruling class, which relied on tradition and the acceptance of the people and would affect the faith in the gods that were accepted by the state as the one true religion. Wisdom according to Socrates is that in respect to wisdom, you are worthless. He felt that wisdom of the Gods was true and relevant and that of humans was not even comparable.
