The Environment and the Economy Our economy has relied on growth and consumerism for quite some time now. A society has been built full of consumers to provide a basis with which to keep profits high, and when they do go down, to expand by increasing production. Maintaining this system comes at a price, though. Not only has our environment been seriously degraded, but the rates of diseases, including cancer, are on the rise. Only 10% of cancers are hereditary, so one can postulate that the other 90% must be attributed to various environmental factors which are due to releases of toxic chemicals into nearby waterways by corporations to, once again, keep profits high. The focus, from the government as well as non-profit groups, has been to find a cure for cancer rather than preventing it from occurring in the first place, thereby increasing the expenditure of resources. Preventing these negative human health and environmental impacts would mean changing our entire social and economic system. However, there is hope that this can happen in the future. The common belief in…

economy of the US, and the level of job satisfaction for workers The article focuses on the economy of the US, and the level of job satisfaction for workers. From the survey conducted on 5,000 households by the Conference Board Survey, it was established that only about 45% of workers in America were satisfied in their jobs. According to the article, a 45% level of job satisfaction in America is the lowest level that has been recorded in the last 22 years. In 2008, only 49% of those who were surveyed reported to be satisfied in their jobs. The article shows that the huge decline in job satisfaction among American workers can partly be blamed for the worst recession that was experienced since the 1930s, which made it hard for most people to find suitable jobs. It has been indicated that the dissatisfaction has grown steadily for the last two decades because only a few workers consider their jobs as interesting, workers income has not been able to keep up with America’s inflation, and the increased cost of health insurance…
Impact of Refugees in the Economy There are millions of refugees across the world, and it has sparked widespread concern about their economic impact on their host countries. According to the report by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNCHR), there are close to 22.5 million refugees across the world. The arrival of refugees in several nations leads to a competition of resources that are scarce such as land, social amenities, food and water with the local population.

The United State is also home to a vast number of entrepreneur refugees who have been able to generate close to 4.5 billion U.S. dollars in business…

Author “Eavan Boland”. The poem title is “A woman without a country.” Author Institutional Affiliation Author “Eavan Boland”. The Poem Title is “A woman Without a Country .” Massive social development correctly described the beginning of the 21st Century. American contemporary culture underwent a significant shift in idealism and perception. US citizens stopped focusing on the various aspects that made everyone different but instead focused on centrism and pluralism (Halliwell, 2008). Modern American culture recognized the need for incorporating everyone as part of society regardless of beliefs, race, or gender identification. Art played a pivotal role in ensuring that modern society accepted new views. Today, young students produce films and plays that display the existence of talent regardless of social boundaries.

Name Affiliation Course Date The most important rights that are guaranteed by the first amendment The first amendment has been and still is the most significant amendment in the Bill of Rights. The first amendment gives freedom of religion, speech, press, and appeal, which limits government and ensures freedom. Without these fundamental rights, America would not be the “land of the free.” In actuality, there is hugeness in all of the articles of the Bill of Rights, and together they make a solid establishment to the American Constitution. Nevertheless, on the off chance that we did not have one of the other Nine Articles, the effect on the country would not be as noteworthy as though we did not have the first amendment. Numerous individuals would accept that the Freedom of Speech is the most significant right of the First Amendment. In any case, I accept that the Freedom of Speech is significant to the American vision of freedom. This is because it is the freedom to express one’s real thoughts that it covers with the Freedom of Religion. The…
Fishing Fishing is the act of catching fish for food, as a sport, and also for trade. There are several techniques of fishing, which include trapping, hand gathering, and hooking. Fishing is not only the practice of catching fish but also other aquatic animals and edible marine invertebrates. These practice date back to ancient times and has been done globally with different methods and traditions. In the modern era, fishing practice varies from profitable ships gathering food fish on a massive scale to people fetching food for families and from a fun activity like stream fishing to skilled deep-sea sport fishing (Abbott,2016).
