In your view, does utilitarianism provide a more objective standard for determining right and wrong than moral rights do? Explain your answer fully. Does utilitarianism provide a more objective standard than principles of justice? Explain. Utilitarianism is a utilitarian ethical philosophy that positions the locus of right and wrong exclusively on the result (consequences) of preferring one action or policy over specific actions or policies (Mulgan, 2014). As such, it goes beyond the limits of one’s desires and takes into consideration the needs of others. While moral rights, the laws developed for creators of copyrighted works that are widely known in civil legislation jurisdiction and some standard code to some extent. Utilitarianism provides a more objective standard for estimating right and wrong more than moral right and principles of justice because, according to the approach, one of the fundamental insights facilitating the theory is that morally upright behaviors are not harmful to others and the doer too. And instead of causing more pain, it increases the utility or happiness in other words. Moreover, some of its principles also provide more…
The brain helps in the recognition of objects Discussion The brain helps in the recognition of objects that are different in appearance through a cascade of insightful, computations that makes conclusions via powerful representation in the neuronal system to the inferior temporal cortex (Bilalić et al., 2017). The visual system interprets the information in two steps where the local scene is retrieved following integration to notice the properties of the coherent object, including the shape and movement of the object. The image is informative to the visual system, which ensures the recognition of layout. The inferior temporal cortex is a significant part of the brain that perceives objects. The region is divided into anterior, central, and posterior segments. The neuron system in the cortex is important in the recognition of objects. The segments of the brain which are involved in the mental rotation, including the prefrontal cortex, dorsal, and ventral parts, help to organize information that reveals objects that are at various angles. Information about the memory of different objects is stored to help the brain recognize the image in…
Economics In Pop Culture Why did you choose this particular example of economics in pop culture? Why did it resonate with you? I chose Vinnie Paz’s Writing on Disobedience and Democracy as he chronologically gives details to several economic situations that took place in American history and the politics behind them. Economic inequality, especially among people of color, is emphasized in the song. Paz explains how President Reagan got rid of benefits for the poor, which mainly consisted of people of color, to fund the war. The effect trickled down to unemployment, where about thirty million people were unemployed. What do you think the creator was trying to express, and how did s/he accomplish that? Paz was trying to educate people on what really took place historically, the things not accurately taught in classes. He wanted to show that the economic inequality that is taking place in the current world against people of color has a historical aspect. He accomplished this by narrating the events chronologically, giving the problem and the cause. What are some of the benefits of using…
United States Supreme Court Case The Supreme Court is the echelon of the judicial system that handles new cases and cases that appear to be complicated that require a more in-depth interpretation of the constitution to come up with a neutral decision. In re Gault is one of such claims. The case discusses the right to procedural rights to juveniles to ascertain the fair trial process. Part A: Description of the Case In re Gault is a case that involved a 15-year-old boy (Gerald Gault) as the defendant and Mrs. Cook as the plaintiff. Mrs. Cook filed a complaint against Gerald for having abused her over the phone. Following the suit, Gerald and his friend Ronald Lewis were arrested and detained in one of the Children Detention Homes in Arizona. At the time when the arrest was conducted, Gault (Gerald) was still under a probation of a case in which Gerald and another minor had been accused of stealing a wallet from a purse that belonged to some woman. During the second arrest, both parents to Gerald were out for…
The impact of Nurse’s communication device on a patient Personal communication devices that include smartphones, tablets, and computers owned by individuals, inclusive of healthcare providers offer unrivaled convenience in our day to day activities. Personal communication devices have impacted positively on health care by reducing stress, improving unity, and cohesion among the team members. PCDs also improve one’s ability to focus on work. The use of these devices, in general, can improve the quality of health care as long as it obeys HIPPA laws. However, these devices, in like manner, offer a negative impact on health care. These devices have led to increased cases of adverse effects in healthcare provision. They pose increased instances of medical errors, misdiagnosis, and negative performance, mainly when a nurse uses PCDs to reply to texts when administering service to the patient. The ethical and legal implication The use of personal communication devices like phones and tablets by the majority of nurses for clinical communications, then they stand at a risk of violating HIPPA laws and other related federal laws. If the health providers are…
Social justice: Social justice: Social justice is one of the ethical issues that nurses, particularly those at family and community level experience (Butts & Rich, 2019). Working as a women health care nurse practitioners (WHNP) in one of the marginalized communities, I have had experiences of the impact of social injustice, particularly among the expecting women, and had to act to help vulnerable mothers and their babies. Often, these mothers cannot afford high-quality care nor access obstetrician or gynecologists due to their low socioeconomic status, which is not their wish. These impacts their health and babies since most mothers wait for complications to resolve on their own. Expecting mothers were waiting until conditions are worse to seek care, which improves their chances of complications and reduces quality pregnancy outcomes while others gave birth at home, which increased their chances of infecting their babies. A significant number of expecting mothers did not attend any prenatal care visit due to lack of knowledge, particularly the new mothers; inadequate resources include professionals, capital and facilities, and some stated cultural beliefs as a barrier.…
Cleaning up CSS stylesheets. CSS files provide guidelines in how elements on a website appear and the behaviour of the components across different devices. The data may be served from a local static folder or through a Content Delivery Network(CDN). Code development is a continuous process. As such, the CSS files of a website may have several redundant rules that are no longer used by elements on the site. For instance, a website may contain a slider item with associated styles. Suppose later the website is updated and the slider removed, the styles may continue to exist in the CSS files though they are not being used anywhere in the website. More CSS will load your app slow. These unused entries in the CSS files increase the load time of a website. Waiting for a website to load discourages the end-user and is not a pleasant experience. Developers should always focus on performance as it is one of the pillars of website development. Having increased load times can in-turn impact the subscription base of your blog or product. Removing or…
Political actions to improve LGBTQ health Nurses can advocate for the LGBTQ population and convince the federal governments to allocate funds for extensive research on LGBTQ populations. In-depth research on the vulnerable population is necessary for the provision of quality health services, just like other populations. The nurses can also involve in political advocacy on behalf of the LGBTQ population and their associated families for equal rights when it comes to matters of surrogacy and related decision-making. There should be no form of discrimination when it comes to visiting loved ones undergoing hospitalization. The LGBTQ group deserves fairness at all dimensions of life. The general health of the LGBTQ population is vital and should be catered for just like the other populations considered normal in society. Forms of discrimination are likely to discourage the group from seeking health services and, subsequently, death. Nurses should participate in efforts to formulate public policy that is specifically geared to improving health access to the culturally sensitive that is aimed at improved access to culturally sensitive populations, including the LGBTQ (Ding et al., 2020).…
US and China and the COVID-19 pandemic Despite the tremendous global disturbance from the COVID-19 pandemic, the US and China have committed themselves under phase one trade deal. The two make the world’s largest economies, and their agreement is expected to raise US gross domestic product and, at the same time, create millions of jobs. Chinese have taken meaningful steps concerning their phase one agreement between the US and China to address non-tariff barriers to trade that they have had in previous years. According to the chief economist at the Americas Farm Bureau, John Newton, around five hundred beef plants have been allowed to export their product to China. He added that they are enhancing and streamlining the approval processes that require more US agricultural products into China. According to John Hopkins University and Medicine’s latest news, the virus which originated from china has infected two hundred and eighty-six thousand people and nearly killed twelve thousand people worldwide. The pandemic has caused governments around the world to lock down populations, cancel non-essential travel as well as recommending social distancing. China…
