Social security and healthcare Social security and healthcare in this simulation were the hardest sectors to issue tax on. Most of the taxable areas had experienced the highest levels of taxation in which further tax impositions would disrupt the progress and benefits to the ordinary citizen in America (Kelly & Rohland, 2017). Some of the things that caught me by surprise to be exempted from my deduction mostly revolved around the defense department. I believe that most of the government expenditure and taxpayer money goes into defense programs that end up posing harm than good. One such factor I did not cut was the slowing down of new weapon systems and the reduction of military personnel. The cuts that I made mainly relied based on common sense, where substantial long-term needs that benefitted most Americans outweighed government needs. Most of the deductions got centralized in terms of benefits to the state and its citizens instead of overfocussing on international perception. What I kept mainly proved to have some solid basis for future environmental conservation and cost efficiency while also benefiting…

Organizational Leadership Discussion The ethical dilemma involves choosing morally acceptable options from two or more available choices, particularly when one decision prevents the selection of the other. The aspect is predominant in the nursing field, in the provision of medical care in the healthcare systems. The nurses get involved in situations where they have to either put up with watching the patients suffer to fulfill the needs of the organization or attend to them and defy the regulations of their organizations. Such cases are present significant tests to the competence and effectiveness of leaders within the healthcare systems. Effective leaders must find their way through to balance between the needs of the organization while also ensuring that the patients get quality care and enhanced patient safety. Quality and value is an essential element in the provision of care to the patients. The observation of this practice can make organizations avoid getting dragged into the unnecessary dilemma that presents the nurses with difficult decisions to make in an attempt to provide care to the patients and fulfill the needs of the…

Suicidal behavior disorder is categorized by one attempting suicide within the recent two years and it excludes other behaviors like non-suicidal self-injurious behavior and suicidal ideation. The manual describes suicidal attempt as a thoughtful act to induce self-harm with a distinct anticipation of death but non-fatal. Ideation of suicide is just thinking or having plans of plans while non-suicidal behavior is harming one-self with no intention of leading to death.
