I think Murray’s point of views will change a lot of people and the way they see education as a primary resource to qualify to get a good job. Murray states “for most of the nation’s youths, making the bachelor’s degree a job qualification means demanding a credential that is beyond their reach” (99). This explains how a bachelor’s degree has impacted most of our youth out there as a requirement to get a job. I agree with Murray that Obama should use his power to reach corporations and for them to consider applicants that may actually have the skills for the job by using certification tests. In Murrays essay he says it best by saying, “Certification test would provide evidence that the applicant has acquired the skills the
The Erih T should have asked the HI to do a study on RDH even before signing a contract. Whatever happened at RDH was pretty much predictable. Almost 50% turnover within 3 months cannot be a cost cutting but a question in the mind of people that why would someone do so. This would then affect the business because the entity which is in controversy has always suffered loss and took time to come on the track. It also shows that there was a miscommunication between the HI and Erih T as HI took the task as a long term plan and gradual change.
He provides both facts as well as assumptions about why things have occurred within this large generation of people. His main sources of evidence include: personal assumptions, generalizations, facts, statistics, percentages, and prior life knowledge. He backs up his own assumptions with statistics by stating such things as “85% of hiring managers and human-resource executives said they feel that millennial have a stronger sense of entitlement than older workers.” He continues on to bring evidence to the idea that people within the millennial generation have a lack of loyalty to a company by stating “about 44% would renege on a job acceptance commitment if a better one came along.” Also, “about two thirds of the millennials said they would likely ‘surf’ from one job to the next.” Although a lot of his assumptions about the millennial generations are hard to argue, the real reliability within this article is within the statistics and quotations. Although he does make strong points with his own observations and understanding of the multiple generations his real reliability resides outside of himself. His use of quotes from other well known sources help back up his arguments in his most persuasive way.
Her father was a World War I veteran. For her 13th birthday Anne recieved a diary, where she began expressing her trials and tribulations of a child in the holocaust. Soon after the Frank family went into hiding in rooms
In fact, some of the largest and traditionally most vulnerable industries, such as steel and oil, were making plans to merge. Apparently corporate America and its investment bankers were correctly gauging the waning influence of the Antitrust Division even before it became readily apparent to legislators. MONOPOLIES HAVE A LONG and colorful history in the United States. They have usually been associated with industry, especially in the post-Civil War period. But their history is much older, originating in Elizabethan England.
Because of the revolution there was a rapid growth of cities and business. The working conditions for many workers were a disaster, but as time went on these conditions soon got better. Women now had a different role in society which may have included staying at home and handling the chores of the house, but it also including women finding jobs and it brought them one step closer to equality. Different economic theories were created as a result. One of the theories was radical and unrealistic and the other become the foundation for many progressive nations such as the
According to National Academy of Social Insurance “social security faces a financial challenge from the impending retirement of the largest generation in American history, the 76 million persons born in the “baby boom” years, from 1946 through 1964. Boomers began to reach age 62 in 2008”. I believe that the aging of the population will place a strain on social welfare systems, and generations later will have to pay for the debt because more people are retiring than
In today’s current news nothing is more prominent than that of the American government and it’s struggles. The American Economy has been a main focus of thousands of Americans for the past few years. A lot that has been argued deals with the massive difference between the upper 1% of the nation and the angry 99% of the rest. Occupy Wall Street deals with these angry 99% looking for some sort of reciprocation from these individuals and the hopes that they can began to enjoy their lives without the fear of becoming broke and possibly homeless due to the failing economy of the U.S.A. ("Occupy Wall Street"). This movement has highly appealed to the youth of this nation especially that of the college graduate students that are still struggling to
Reese H. One of the most inspiring women to me is Oprah Gail Winfrey. She was born on January 29, 1954 at 7:51 P.M. EST in Kosciusko, Mississippi, USA. Oprah was the daughter of two unwed teens, Vernita Lee and Vernon Winfrey. Oprah had two siblings, one half brother and one half sister, that both died. Oprah was originally named “Orpah” after the Biblical character in the book of Ruth, but there was a typo on her birth certificate.
An individual offered her a stable place to live, soon after, he trafficked her. (http://helphomelesskidsnow.org/facts/) The primary cause of homelessness amongst youth is the “aging out” effect of the foster care system. Twenty percent of unaccompanied youth arriving in homeless shelters are coming directly from foster care while twenty-five percent of those already in shelters were in foster care within the previous year(https://www.dosomething.org/actnow/tipsandtools/background-11-causes-teen-homelessness). The foster care system defines their wards from being aged zero to seventeen. Once the individual reaches eighteen, they are considered an adult and are almost immediately discharged from their family.
