What Are Citizens Getting From Public Agencies?
All too often we hear of government programs that cause inefficient and wasteful allocation of goods and resources. Consider the example of the Australian government home insulation program (HIP), which was designed to prop up business in the wake of the global financial crisis, providing rebates to insulate the ceilings of 2.2 million houses at a cost of (AUS) $ 2.7 billion. As well as claiming that the scheme would create jobs, the government sought to boost its "green" credentials, insisting that home energy bills would be cut dramatically. Countless problems plagued the HIP; houses caught fire, thousands of cases of fraud were claimed, numerous installation companies went bankrupt, and a number of deaths and injuries occurred (despite multiple safety warnings from regulatory agencies). A lack of effectiveness in the program design, administration, and delivery arrangements and a poor management structure for dealing … Read More

The Evil of Bloodshed of Innocent People

Numbers 35:33

“So you shall not pollute the land in which you live; for blood pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for the bloodshed in it, but by the blood of him who shed it.”

Dear people of God, you can see from today’s lead Holy Bible text that a country’s land is defiled when there is bloodshed of innocent lives in it. Bloodshed is a very offensive act as far as God is concerned.

See what God says in Ezekiel 36:18, “So I poured out my wrath upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land and for their idols with which they had defiled it.”

Drawing from the above verses, it is therefore horrendous to see a nation like Nigeria treat with kid gloves people who shed innocent blood of people who have not committed any crime.

From all the qualified retirement vehicles offered by the government, a Roth IRA is probably the most appealing for the financial planners since finally common sense is winning over traditional wisdom. The fact that is better to pay the tax on the seed than on the harvest is being accepted now especially with the trillions after trillions of new federal debt created recently.

People are now struggling with the thought that all that debt will have to be paid and the easiest and more convenient way the federal government has at its disposal is TAXES.

When you understand that you are going to be paying way more taxes later, then you do better paying taxes now, and that is how a Roth IRA works. You deposit money in a Roth IRA with after tax money, which means the money that you deposit there is not accepted in your income tax … Read More

Outsourcing in a Post-Recession World

The current economic crisis in Western Europe and the US has adversely affected nearly all industries globally. The financial crisis resulting from the subprime crisis in the US has forced companies and even entire countries to adopt austerity measures in order to keep costs/debts down to improve on the bottom line or decrease losses. This drive to decrease costs has resulted in layoffs even in case of larger corporations and many businesses have been forced to cease operations or merge with other companies. Ironically, outsourcing, a key cost reduction tool for many companies, has resulted in the deepening of the crisis. Some of the main costs of outsourcing are as follows:

Job Losses in the country of Origin

Most critics consider this as the single greatest cost of exporting jobs overseas. In western economies currently witnessing high levels of unemployment, the governments are under pressure … Read More

Closed circuit television, or otherwise known as CCTV camera systems, can be seen at present in many shops, stadiums, train stations, offices and even homes and other private venues. A security camera is usually installed in an area to improve the safety of the people by preventing crime or to monitor what happens there. Many people and organisations around the world have learned to take advantage of a CCTV kit and employed it use for various purposes, including research. In fact, it has been decades since men discovered and experienced the benefits of having one. For those who are curious about the history and origin of these monitoring devices, read on.

1940s

Back in 1942, surveillance equipment was used to monitor the taking off of rockets and missiles in Germany, which is primarily a military activity. A well-known German engineer designed the device, backed by Siemens AG. The activity was … Read More

DAC Report – Government Subsidies Are Top Downfalls for Truck Drivers

Training standards for new CDL drivers have reached a higher concern for the FMCSA in recent years. Social media has played a major role in highlighting the further needs for safer commercial vehicle driver training.

Union or Non-Union, the two major attacks on all truck drivers is the DAC report and the government policies that deliberately oversupply drivers into the industry. Government subsidies and grants provided to training motor carriers are actually driving good drivers out of the industry as fast as they come in.

Training companies can receive tens of thousands of government dollars to provide on-the-job training per student. Once trained, these new drivers are paid as low as .23 to .27 cents per mile: a non-living wage. Furthermore, CDL schools should have a new curriculum regarding who can be taught.

Many schools continue to accept any student that walks through the door; even those with felonies, DUI’s … Read More

Curbing the Talented – Social Pressure on Sportspersons

The Olympic games at Rio ended up with a bunch full of desires contrary to the expectations from the second most populous country of the world. India bagged two medals and yet again proved its consistency in giving poor results at the Olympics.

Seeing the golden bird go off lustreless in the congregation of games, the prime minister of India gave his new slogan "the playful kid develops" but in the country where the tag line goes "the playful kid would be beaten" you can hardly expect anything better.

When the geeks are shown behind the pile of books, having a poor health and horn rimmed spectacles while the poor section of the society symbolizes the dusty ragged children focusing more on sports than doing homework.

Sports is always seen as a wholesome development for the children, but when it comes to taking it as a profession things may not … Read More

Start an Online Home Business Using Your Computer – Staggering Evidence Says You Must

If you are employed you should start an online home business using a computer. If you are unemployed you should go to your computer right now and start a home business on the Internet.

If you are breathing you are a very good candidate to make money online. Think about this.

I just read that nearly 1 out of 10 Americans are unemployed. There are 5 applicants for every job opening. Businesses are hesitant to hire because of the unstable economy.

Even industries thought to have job surpluses recently are showing more people applying than there are jobs. For example 9News in Denver did a story last night that students just out of nursing school are not getting hired.

You probably already know that in many states teachers jobs have been cut as school districts try to balance their budgets. Not everyone can just print money and run up more … Read More

The Greenback

When the Kingston Trio came out with their rendition of “Greenback Dollar” with the lyrics saying “I don’t give a dam about a greenback dollar I spend it just as fast as I can” today, half of that phrase is actually true. Too many of us continue to spend that greenback ever faster though. But, what we do care about is why that ever disappearing dollar doesn’t afford the things it used to. We do give a dam about every last dime that comes into our possession today.

To understand the seriousness of the United States financial status is to trace the history of the dollar or Greenback as it was known during the Civil War. The term greenback refers to legal tender, printed in green on one side and issued by the United States during the American Civil War. Currency at that time was backed up by gold but, … Read More

Accounting jobs are among today's most stable career opportunities. IT jobs, conversely, is among the least stable job fields. Both careers can pay lucratively, and both require a great deal of specialized training to enter. For those on the cusp of deciding which career field to pursue, a breakdown of the differences in these two careers may be a helpful guide in pursing the future.

Accounting has many branches of practice. Public, private, and government accounting are the three main branches. Public accountants will need a 4 to 5 year education from an accredited college to be competitive. To work in the public environment, these individuals will also have to complete four basic tests of proficiency in order to earn their CPA (Certified Personal Accountant) license.

Private accounting may have a lower entry range, and depending on the size of a company and the scope of its accounting needs, individuals … Read More
