Firstly, he was successful in managing the royal finances by innovatively using the Royal Chamber to efficiently manage the royal income. Unlike any of the previous monarchs, Ed began using the Royal Chamber increasing whereas before him all reliance had been upon the Exchequer. Now though, with this new scheme the revenue and expenditure was much more systematic and consequently the income rose significantly. Furthermore as he got older his experience increased, however even when he started he did a better job than his predecessor, Henry VII. Previous kings had only used the Chamber erratically in times of war however Edward decided to make it more systematic, which in turn siphoned in much more money.
Their interest is to see the profit they make increasing and the value that the business has rising. Like other stakeholders they want to business to have a good reputation and to grow.

Progressivism had been growing the last decades, as it had roots deep in American society, and the New Deal shared many aspects with Progressive ideals. Even though the Progressive and New Dealers had different core problems and wished to accomplish different things in different time frames, they shared “a far greater willingness than had been seen in previous American history to make use of the machinery of government to meet the needs of the people and supplement the workings of the national economy” (Hofstadter 302). Therefore the New Deal did have some resonance in American minds. It resonated further because before Roosevelt took office “a silent revolution had taken place in public opinion…the federal government was to be

There were also unethical issues involving the entity that was supposed to secure and watch over those that are investing our money. That entity, known as the Securities and Exchange Commission, failed to properly investigate certain claims that were made against Madoff long before this scheme broke wide open. The SEC was warned numerous times about the inconsistent information from Bernie Madoff. Ethical misconduct within this case has made more investors aware of what is needed besides forking over large sums of money and charitable contributions to someone who claims they are doing the work of the people. Investors now know that it is also their job to challenge and be more “in tune” to what their money is doing and how their money is working.
Although the Sarbanes-Oxley Act was passed by Congress for positive reasons, there are many disadvantages that come along with it. A major issue is the cost of regulation, especially for smaller companies. Expanding internal controls delay the timeliness of financial statements by adding processing time to accounting functions. To follow the SOX, companies would need to separate duties, causing an increase in personnel. The SOX also calls for additional audits which increase business costs.
It states that because the costs of healthcare continue to increase so does the number of uninsured which in return increases the costs even more. “Primary care coverage for the uninsured is the first necessary step to reform and can be more cost effective and tolerable than a major system.” (Stephens, J. H., & Ledlow, G. R., 2010). Hospitals and physicians would spend much less on uncompensated care and patient’s health care debts would be much less. The idea of providing basic care as a right for all citizens would not only help the healthcare systems cost issues it would also increase the quality of healthcare. Everyone would then have the availability to preventative services and treatments meaning that less people would be likely to wait to seek medical care for an acute illness and the number of people attending emergency care departments would decrease.
Nero actively sought to create an Augustan rebirth after his incompetent predecessors, and with the aid of two brilliant men: the Praetorian prefect Burrus and the his mentor Seneca, he made many reforms that improved the lives of the common people exponentially. The tightly censored and regulated senate enjoyed greater freedom, he made many reforms that succeeded in stamping out corruption, he improved the infrastructure used by the common people, he passed intelligent reforms that helped create material prosperity, he even wanted to ban public executions, as he felt it was a barbaric practice. Perhaps this is not really a positive judgement of Nero, but rather a positive judgement of his advisors Burrus and Seneca, who played a huge role in forming Nero’s opinions and preventing people like Agrippina from exercising political power. Regardless, for a long time, Nero’s reign (or his clique’s reign) was brilliant and very close to a golden age, where there was stability, military successes, and many cultural and artistic
He stood firm during the trial, even though he was bombarded with threats, and protest. It would be a sad day to see a man who started his public service career as a protester against corruption, to end his career with a criminal record with charges of corruption. Senator Mendez has also not been afraid, in the past 23 years, to make his voice known, even if it meant stepping on any public figure’s toes. Lately, he has been known as an unyielding opponent against President Obama’s foreign policies on Cuba, and Iran. So how could a man who has always stood firm on his morals, and his virtues, take any monetary goods to help grease any wheels, on a fraud charge?
Or are doctors and specialists just charging too much for the services they provide. Has it actually increased the quality of care the patient receives? Physician income in the U.S is among the most highly trained and well compensated professions reported in 2003 (Getzen, 2007). The more specialized a physician is (i.e. ; a surgeon versus a primary care physician), the higher the income compensation.
