Death penalty VS Life in prison By Colin Robertson “Other states are trying to abolish the death penalty... mine's putting in an express lane.” – Ron White The death penalty, as it is commonly referred, is the penalty sometimes given to the criminals faced with the most horrific crimes possible. Many feel it is necessary in order to keep society safe because of how it permanently removes these select people from society, feeling that this will keep them safe from danger. It has been a part of the justice system since the beginning of human history, used primarily in cases of murder, treason and in military service, but just because something is old, doesn’t mean it’s what is right. The last several centuries have seen the emergence of modern nation states. Almost obvious to the concept of nation state is the idea of citizenship.
The main motivation for the reformation in England was Henry V111 religious convictions how far do you agree with this statement? The reformation in England was the change from Catholicism to Protestantism. Henry V111 played a huge role in the reformation for example he stopped the amount of taxes that were being payed to Rome and he later ordered the dissolution of the monasteries however there are many other reasons to why the reformation in England took place for example for many years Protestants had argued over the beliefs and laws of the catholic religion as they believed some of their beliefs were corrupt. For example the Catholics had a strong belief in purgatory this is a seen as being like a waiting room were your soul is weighed on all of the sins you have committed compared to all of the positives that you have done throughout your life. The church said that the only way you could get time out of purgatory or save a family member from purgatory was to buy indulgences this means that the monks will pray for you and your family.
Jails were managed by the local sheriff department they housed individuals convicted of misdemeanors, and crimes from small infractions to severe crimes like murder. Jail and Prison Comparison King Henry II who demanded that these buildings needed to be built introduced the first jails in England in 1166 they were first called “gaol”. Originally these jails were going to be used for detaining offenders awaiting trial. Between the fourteenth and eighteenth centuries vagrancy started to become a huge problem. Jails were now used to displace people like the poor or the mentally ill.
They had a long wait until 1840 to see the tax-supported status of the Anglican Church be removed, making them equal once again. Not only did the friction between Anglicans and Catholics grow before and while the era, but the tyranny of the Church of England also gave reason to former believer to dissent and form new groups such as Presbyterianism (who did not agree with the order of
Power of Suppliers The bargaining power of suppliers in this industry is low, as there are many suppliers. The required commodities like sugar, and water are basic goods that are available quite easily. So, producers have little power over the pricing hence the suppliers in this industry are weak. Also, the suppliers have almost no strength to integrate forward, so the threat from them is low. Power of Buyers End consumers and retail channels can both be considered as buyers in this industry.
However, before the revolution many different religions were still being discriminated against with voting and public funds, some people in Massachusetts were even jailed for refusing to pay taxes to support their local ministers. The end of the British rule immediately caused people to question the privileged position associated with Anglican churches. Some people would demand relief from taxes because of this religious group. Because of majority of wars to be over religious beliefs , many leaders in the revolution claimed it was dire for the “new nation” to avoid conflicts about religious differences influenced from the past three centuries. Thus separation of church and state came into play, with hopes of keeping public morality and avoiding corrupting embrace from the government.
Physical force was used instead of jail. Jails housed offenders who were awaiting trial and individual who could not pay their debts. Various forms of punishments exercised during the 1700s were mutilation of all or some body parts, whippings, branding, and torture. Some people could be cast out or exiled from their neighborhood or country. The most serious crimes resulted in capital punishment.
Catholics, he found, preferred to master their crafts. He accounted this disparity between occupations practitioners of said religions to the religious atmosphere and the ethics of their community. This changed occurred during the reformation in which there was a switch in the assurance of salvation for followers. In the absence of such assurances from religious authority, Weber argued, that Protestants began to search for extrinsic indications of salvation. Calvinism doctrine decreed predestination for its
Capital punishment saves money and overcrowding in the prisons. The death penalty is the only punishment that would directly compensate for the tragic loss of a loved one. Cons---There are some people against the death penalty because they believe it is not fair to the poor, who cannot afford to hire an attorney to defend them. The poor usually get the death penalty because they are appointed an incompetent court appointed attorney with little or no experience in trying capital cases. There have been a lot of innocent people put to death.
Power of Suppliers – Low There is low supplier concentration relative to the industry they sell to and a single supplier does not account for a large part of a retailer’s business. This weakens the overall power of the supplier because there are more supply options available for discount retailers. The emergence of private labels has also reduced supplier leverage. Supplier power is further weakened by low switching costs and non-differentiated products. As the retailers incur virtually no costs by changing suppliers it is easy for them to play them against each other to get better terms.
