He references documents such as the United States Constitution and The Declaration of Independence as grounds for his arguments against the “Taylor Machine”. Holding the ideals that he was raised upon is how Jefferson Smith demonstrates the same idea of civil disobedience that Thoreau refers to. Senator Paine was oblivious to the strong heart and mind of Jefferson Smith. I believe that Smith was looked down upon and maybe even considered an imbecile due to his lack of knowledge about political affairs. Had Paine known of his plans to build a facility near Willet Creek then he surely would not have allowed him to be sworn in.
The stockholder’s argued: (1) the plaintiff’s certificate of incorporation does not expressly authorize the contribution, and under common-law principles the company does not possess any implied or incidental power to make it, and (2) the New Jersey statutes which expressly authorize the contribution may not constitutionally be applied to the plaintiff, a corporation created long before their enactment.

Can Congress pass legislation that allows for the creation of citizen suits that confer standing upon citizens who would not be able to allege an injury in fact? Opinion of the Court: Even if the Court were to assume that the agency-funded projects at issue threatened listed species, there was no proof that these actions would produce "actual or imminent" injuries to particular respondents who might someday wish to visit the foreign countries in question. The Court disregarded the proposed theory of "ecosystem nexus" which claimed that any person who used any part of a "contiguous ecosystem" adversed affected by a funded activity had standing to

Is there anything unsatisfactory about it? Could it have been improved upon in some way? Cost-benefit analysis is a legitimate tool, by using the lowest cost to obtain the biggest profit out of it. However, it is unacceptable to sacrifice human life in exchange of paying a lower production costs. Before they made any decision, they should hold an ethical meeting about the improvement of fuel tank, if they would change their mind by paying more then people would not have to die.
Mr. Richards also testified that Mr. Kurtz “didn’t feel that the Association could, in fact, come up with that type of savings, but the negotiations still had to move forward.” Id. Mr. Richards, of course, was not competent to testify as to what Mr. Kurtz felt. In any event, as noted above, the record shows that the Association subsequently submitted a proposal projecting a savings to the District if its transportation services remained in-house. Thus, whatever Mr. Kurtz may have felt, it
§59 Requisites of a Will (Vernon 1980), is there sufficient evidence to support that Mr. Goldschmidt’s will is invalid. The Petitioner alleges that the will is contestable due to the method of preparation and signature. CONCLUSION In conclusion, I believe Ms. Goldschmidt can bring an action against Ms. Richardson in the matter of Mr. Goldschmidt’s will. Because Mr. Goldschmidt’s will was not entirely handwritten, or not entirely typed wholly, this could be grounds for the will to be deemed invalid. Also there are no subscribing or “credible” witnesses that executed Mr. Goldschmidt’s
Hence, our conception of one substance would be understood via an external property in relation with the other substance. Since substances cannot be understood in terms of external properties in relation with each other then they cannot be said to account for one another either because they do not relate to each other. Hence, since they cannot account for another, then they cannot cause or produce one another. From this line of reasoning Spinoza provides the corollary that substance cannot be produced by anything outside of it because there only exist substance and their
The second choice is for Green Giant to stay in Salinas so individuals are not laid off and deal with executives “light but firm hand upon” career implications due to Green Giant not substantically and quickly increase profits. Both paths have severe positive and negative impacts no matter the route Green Giant decides. It is Green Giant’s decision to deal with which avenue is the lesser of two evils and will have least severe impact on society as a whole. The most relevant parties in both scenarios are as follows: Green Giant Executives, Grand Metropolitan Management, Green Giant Employees, families of Green Giant Employees effected from losing their jobs if Green Giant moves to Mexico, Salinas Economy, Economy of Mexico option #2, Mexico’s water , increase in price corn and bean supply in Mexico and therefore increase in cost of living in Mexico, quality of products produced in Mexico. This issue is an organizational issue, starting from with top management in both Grand Metropolitan and Green Giant.
