Mr. Bailey must decide whether or not to support the merger and determine if the outcome is beneficial to the Opera. Mr. Bailey could show how the Opera’s financial stability, fluid business model and strong cash reserve could be hurt by the Symphony’s financial difficulties and union locked business model. This contrast showing how the Opera could become less economically stable by the merger would lead to the rational conclusion that the merger doesn’t have many positives to offer. Using Vroom Theory in this manner would motivate the Opera not to support the merger because the belief would be that the merger would leave them in a weakened economic state. The illustration of how unattractive this new financial situation would be hard to measure and speculation of losing their financial standing would move the Opera against the merger.

When ask about Mexico, people will tell you they are south of the U.S border. They will tell you about how illegal drugs and illegal immigrants come through the border. For the ones the like to travel they will tell you about some of the tourist attraction, the way of life there and how much cheaper the things are there compare to the U.S.A., other will tell you that we need to build a wall to keep the illegal immigrants and drugs out of the United States, but in my opinion this will not work out because if there is a way they will find a way to get in the United States for example look at the super tunnels that where discovered in the border of California and Mexico. Canadian come to the United States for other reasons, they come in to buy clothing, automobile and pharmaceutical goods. The cost of living is Canada is expensive, so they come in through our open borders.
They would be independent and not have another owner overseeing daily activities. A major disadvantage to building on the hospital groups would be the CFO’s statement regarding lack of space to extend on campus. This problem leads to the idea that it may be a better option to build off site, but it’s important to thoroughly consider all benefits and risks involved first. 1-2b. The next option to be discussed is buying both a building and lot adjacent to the hospital.
Although the government views them differently, they should not. In the United States of America we are a country of freedom and unity, and if the Native Americans do not have to pay taxes, it does not help our country economically. We have to pay taxes and so should they. Native American reservations should not only be taxed for their land, but should also be aware of the lack of police enforcement while on duty and focus on the increase of incidents that occur due to the alcohol and gambling that goes on in and around their casinos. Native Americans that currently live in the state of Arizona and own their own land should be taxed for it.
