.... not because of skills or qualifications (in that case the white man would have provided the same result), but for his skin color. This seems to be blatant discrimination, but many believe it is justified. Some feel retribution for years of discrimination is reason enough, but that issue will be discussed later. First, lets focus on why this is not a solution to creating an unbiased society. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." He desired a world without discrimination, with .....

.... built better and consumers are not afraid to buy them. Of course, this choice does not come without an opportunity cost for the consumer. A used car will generally be bought on the condition "as is" or, at best, with a very limited warranty. If a buyer of a used car drives off the lot and finds they have purchased a vehicle that needs lots of money spent on it for repairs, they may possibly find themselves out of luck. Another downside may come as more people continue to saturate the market, looking for used cars to buy, the resources available will become scarce. An increase in used car prices may gradually start to rise. As the figures indica .....

.... 18,000 employees work at ComEd, which operates 6 commercial divisions and 15 generating stations. A long time leader in generation technology, including nuclear power, the output from Edison’s six nuclear stations represents 11.5% of the total nuclear production in the United States. Currently 75% of our electricity is nuclear generated. ComEd has been a monopoly for over 110 years and is currently facing deregulation. This would mean freedom of choice for the customers. The choice to have another electric supplier (one of many competitive forces) other than ComEd. I will begin by explaining what deregulation means, and try to give .....

.... had spent most of the time outlining the details of Texas Air's offer to buy Eastern. Frank Lorenzo and Frank Borman had been talking since December originally about consolidating the computerized reservation systems, then , as Eastern's problems deepen, about a possible sale. As Frank entered his office, he found his his loyal excutive assistant; Wayne Yeoman; and Dick Magurno, Eastern's senior vice president for legal affairs. For about 20 minutes the three discussed the fourthcoming meeting and the prospects for saving the airline. Negotiations were going to come around for ALPA and TWU but no break .....

.... take actions to slow spending and decrease the money supply. This corresponding with the money equation MV = PY, by lowering both M and V, P and Y can stabilize if they are increasing too rapidly. The Fed does this by selling securities on the open market. This, in turn, reduces bank's reserves and forces the interest rate to rise so the banks can afford to make loans. People seeing these rises in rates will tend to sell their low interest assets, in order to acquire additional money, they tend move toward higher yielding accounts, also further increasing the rate. Soon this small change by the Fed affects all aspects of business, from the pric .....

.... moved to Jersey City. In 1928 Colgate made its greatest merger of all time with the Palmolive-Peet Company and in 1953 took on its present name of Colgate-Palmolive. By 1967 Colgate-Palmolive was on a roll with sales passing the 1 billion dollar mark. In the years after, Colgate began acquiring major companies and expanding its product line with the purchases of Hill's Pet Products in 1976, the Mennen Company in 1992 and in 1993 acquired the liquid soap brands of S.C. Johnson. Before the purchase of Mennen Co. in 1992, Colgate Palmolive had no major presence in the deodorant industry. With the purchase of Mennen Co. they held 16% of the d .....

.... models that in trying to be scientific leave out too much and leave modern economists without a true understanding of how the system works.� Mr. Heilbroner believes that modern economists don’t include other fields like sociology, psychology or history to their work. According to him, today, the facts and numbers are considered too much, and the morals and the society’s long term benefits are squeezed out. Math and computers have taken over noneconomic motives and the changes in the forces of human nature haven’t taken into account in the process of developing the scientific data. Uchitelle supports Heilbroner’s ideas with the quo .....

.... are our recommendations. Sales and Profit Growth Compared to our competitors, we hold the lowest sales growth rate – for the financial year between 1997 and 1998, our rate stood at 5.9% against Tesco’s 18.47%. This suggests that Tesco are “running away� with the competition – having analysed them, there are measures we can take to reduce this deficit. A wider range of products and services will provide Safeway with a more powerful “pulling� ability, thus increasing sales and profits: Clothing is an area of growth within supermarkets – due to their size, large supermarkets are able to purchase garments in large quantitie .....

.... the amounted debt would quickly absorb it. The last time the budget ran a surplus was in 1969 during Nixon's presidency. Budget deficits have grown larger and more frequent in the last half-century. In the 1980s they soared to record levels. The Government cut income tax rates, greatly increased defense spending, and didn't cut domestic spending enough to make up the difference. Also, the deep recession of the early 1980s reduced revenues, raising the deficit and forcing the Government to spend much more on paying interest for the national debt at a time when interest rates were high. As a result, the national debt grew in size after 1980. It grew f .....

.... uncertainties about the tax situation, the flat tax would eventually benefit businesses. However, they would see their tax burde n rise by about two-thirds, on average, from 31 percent of the total tax burden to around 50 percent. This tax increase on businesses would result from the loss of deductions for state and local taxes and for employee fringe benefits, among other things. Though businesses will try to pass on these costs to consumers and employees-by raising prices and trimming fringe benefits, for example-shifting the nations tax burden to the business community will not produce successful tax reform. Next, the flat tax initiall .....
