With shows like this on air for the world to see it is a disgrace. This country is well over dry on money, yet, we can spend millions on each of these cast members who do nothing but party and be belligerent drunks. According to TMZ.com the Jersey Shore cast is getting paid $100,000 an episode and there is 13 episodes in a season, don’t forget to include their appearances, advertisement, exedra. America claims to be out of money and needs help yet we are supplying millions of dollars to people who don’t deserve
Their efforts are primarily unproductive. While they do try to get more of the suppliers off of the streets, it simply raises the price of the product. Hence, more suppliers are encouraged to enter the market because they believe the rewards outweigh the risks. Chapter two of Super Freakonomics begins with yet another comical title that reads, “Why Should Suicide Bombers Buy Life Insurance?” This chapter draws in the readers with compelling aspects why terrorism is so cheap and easy, and of both birth and death. I will begin with the talk of terrorism.
It was a time where everyone was thought to be happy, care free, and making money. Technology was exploding and excess was everywhere. The high demand for anything scandalous made it very easy for anyone to make money. Information didn’t travel as fast as it does today but the demand in the 90’s had made it possible for the mass media frenzies of the first decade in the twenty first century. The capitalization of events no matter how tragic and the dumbing
Braulio Sanchez 5118986 Singer’s Unrealistic Solution In the New York Times article, “The Singer Solution to World Poverty,” Peter Singer tries to persuade his audience to donate a huge chunk of their annual earnings to charities that assist those children that are impoverished overseas. Singer does this by proposing almost insane, unrealistic ideas, such as donating more than half of their income and only living off of necessities. This, of course, is preposterous because as humans we want to have luxury items such as expensive TVs and fancy cars so we can enjoy our leisure time. When looking at this article its ineffectiveness becomes clear; this article in its entirety is a giant appeal to the readers’ emotions with not enough logical or reasonable arguments to support his argument. Although Singer has strong ethos because of his status as a philosopher, his essay is ineffective due to his misuse of two certain scenarios in order to persuade people to donate by making them feel guilty & relies far too much on pathos to persuade his audience rather than focusing on logos and ethos.
I estimated the cost to buy the naming rights for the Dallas Cowboys to be $250 million over 30 years. A long term contract with the team is almost expected as the company wants to leverage their relationship and increased exposure with the team as long as possible. The Cowboys were rated as the most popular NFL team by ESPN and fan voting so any company will want to keep this relationship as long as possible. The naming rights may sell higher than the Texans and do not anticipate them getting anything less than the Redskins as they drive a larger revenue steam and are worth more. I excluded the selling of PSL's to contribute to the financing because the revenue generated from them would be used to
I could certainly use a portion of the money and would most certainly spend it frivolously. I would be more than happy to help re-grow our economy by spending a portion of the money borrowed from other countries instead of giving it all away to individuals and institutions which caused my drop in income in the first

The advantages to a sole proprietorship are, there is no startup cost, and you just simply start collecting money for exchange of services or goods. You set your own hours.

Competitive sports: the most universal activity throughout the world, and possibly the universe. All sports have their loyal fans, who stick with them through the good seasons and the bad, the trophy-raising dominating seasons and the worst in the division seasons. However, obviously not every team can win their leagues championship every year, and mostly many teams go years upon years without winning some hardware. Years ago, teams with the best records that won championships typically generated the most income and revenue and would draft and buy the best players, therefore creating dynasties and would give other teams no chance of winning. In the recent years professional sports leagues have fixed this problem by creating what is known as
A scholarship can be a major financial package, and plenty of your average college students would be more than happy to take the tuition and actually pursue their studies” (Pheifer, 2012). That may be true, but these athletes don’t stay at college long enough to earn a scholarship. In basketball most players (at least the good ones) stick it out for merely a year, while most football players (again, the good ones) leave after four years. You call this compensation? I think not.
