The main reason for this is that the private demand for the investment capital is very weak. I disagree with the notion that the future market psychology will change to reflect the reality, as it always does, and if this happens, then the effects that Peterson describes in his book will possibly
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.
Nonetheless, both articles are idealistic. In another phrase, they are morally wrong. To get a true understanding of what an essay is saying we must concern ourselves with is what the author is truly trying to convey. There are often hidden messages in writing that inexperienced readers often look over and take for granted. This is the issue that is at stake with both readings of “A Modest Proposal” by Jonathan Swift and Garret Hardin’s “Lifeboat Ethics.” Hardin’s essay that is serious in tone, while Swift’s offers similar views appears to be poking fun by starting at in a serious tone at first glance but in reality is far from it.
The modern ethics argue it would be abnormal if nobody had evil urges. By saying that, Thomas then adds in how the first accountant is a bit strange because he didn’t even have the urge to do wrong. He ends his text saying that the
Rather than looking upon it like head-shaking witnesses to a horrific train wreck, let's focus on how situations like these evolve, because, in truth, a leadership failure of this sort could happen to any of us. Smart, successful people, even those who see themselves as particularly ethical and moral, cultivate a collection of blind spots. In Blind Spots: Why We Fail to Do What's Right and What to Do about It, authors and business ethicists Max Bazerman and Ann Tenbrunsel argue that we overestimate our ability to act ethically. They say we succumb to "bounded ethicality," which they describe as "systematic constraints on our morality that favor our own self-interest at the expense of the interest of others." That means we may say we're all about doing the right thing -- and even believe it.
1) Are information gathering techniques like rajaratnam’s common on Wall Street? If so, what could regulators, investors, and executives do to reduce the practice?

Exposing violence in the media teaches bad morals and is not supported by the greater good of society. In the show “24”, the main character, Jack Bauer is effective and powerful in saving America, by using torturing methods. The message sent is, “..as long as the tortures manage to choose the correct victim…those who know a lot and those who know a little spill... information within seconds after pain starts-which is not a common occurrence”(Cusac 140). The show makes scenarios look so unrealistic, that you can’t determine what the truth is and what is make belief. Some may say, “Its unfair competition.
Many people make brash financial decisions based on what they feel is right at the time only to later realize their hindsight is 20/20. In other words, people, being imperfect, have a tendency to make illogical decisions based on emotion. They may make a risky investment because they had a good feeling about it, or they may get very excited about a new strategy and let their emotions get the best of them by overlooking obvious logical flaws in that strategy. For Lora, when dealing with a decision of this magnitude, she must make sure that her emotion is not weighing her one way or the other. This can be done by taking a step back and analyzing the data and information that she has and making sure she has not overlooked anything by taking a non-biased approach.
The easy way is often referred to as the wrong way and in some cases this is true, such as when Victor ignored his creation. By not facing his fears he was granted the absence of the monster, but only contributed to emanate problem just on the horizon. Victor’s tone of boastful arrogance soon turned to forlorn warning when he “Had finished and saw, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled his heart” (Shelley, 42). A fantastic example of the “easy way out” could be found in The Importance of Being Earnest. As Jack quickly finds out, lying about your true name to win the girl of your dreams can be successful, but also have consequences.
One reason is that we always think that these things are not worthy to judge, another reason is that we usually do the same thing as them and we don’t like to face the dark side of ourselves. However, when we experience a lot of unfair treatment or pressure, we may become to be depressive and like to complaint or even curse, which is the hotbed for extremity and evil. From now on, the gate of unscrupulous is opening, and our happiness index is sharp declining and is hard to get a favorable
