In this essay I will be comparing to sides of an argument pertaining to the expenses of universal healthcare in the United States. One written by a man named Greg Olear, and the other by an anonymous author. The first batch of arguments are for a universal healthcare system written by Greg Olear. His first argument says that this is in the Constitution, stating it is the job of the president, the Congress, and the Supreme Court to, above all, uphold the charges set forth in the Constitution.…
Didion sets the tone by connecting morality to the “air” of her uncomfortable environment. Didion’s position on morality is that “we have no way of knowing” about morality, about what is good, right, and correct and she challenges our own consciousness as well. While Didion claims that there are no universal standards of what is right or wrong are correct, I disagree when she says, “How many madmen have said it and meant it” and includes Jesus Christ in her examples of madmen. These statements are one-sided because, which is a major weakness to her argument. Didion informs the general public audience that she is in a very uncomfortable stage.…

In the traditional method of critical thinking, the goal is to find the right answer by discovering and ferreting out the wrong answers. Thus, in a multiple choice quiz, a student could determine that the correct answer was C by knowing that A, B, and D were incorrect. This student knows that, as Sherlock Holmes said, “When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” To me, this quote sums up the premise of what Elbow refers to as the doubting game. Once all untrue assertions have been eliminated, what remains is presumed true.…
Narveson’s argument provides the difference between charity and justice. In his argument, he considers the demands of justice are enforceable to all people, while charity is not. This means that, in some instance people are forced to act with justice because it is morally permissible, though, it is not permissible at all instance to force people to be charitable since, it is not morally permissible. Narveson's argument shows that the call to charity is personal and not forced. He argues that it not be right to force people to act charitably.…
The plain meaning rule says to give effect to text if it has a plain meaning. If text is ambiguous – whether in meaning or in breadth, an ordinary meaning at the time of enactment can be used, supplied by a dictionary. Because of the serious consequences the charge, including long-term imprisonment and overextension of federal power, and the incredibly broad reach of the definition, the court will likely allow evidence of legislative history and ordinary meaning to find a more narrow interpretation of chemical weapon. The court may use the ordinary meaning especially when trying to find the reach of such a broad definition. The court may find a reasonable, ordinary meaning would not describe Dann’s crime as involving a chemical weapon.…

The Dave Brubeck Quartet, comprised of Brubeck on the piano, Paul Desmond on the alto saxophone, Eugene Wright on the bass, and Joe Morello on the drums, released the album Time Out in 1959 (Time Out). Even on the first listen, one can see how revolutionary this work would soon become. Opening with “Blue Rondo A La Turk,” Brubeck’s Quartet immediately presents a rhythmic, swingin’ tune featuring 9/8 time. “Kathy’s Waltz” explores polyrhythm and “Take Five,” arguably the band’s “titular” work today, too pushes the boundaries of common time with its 5/4 beat. Throughout the album, works are contrasted within each other by style changes and time signature variation; yet despite their unfamiliar form, the tunes still manage to provide a solid,…
In order to avoid contingency traps, which means avoiding doing something now and paying for it later, people need to develop rule-bound behaviors. Rule-bound behavior means establishing set of rules that will restrict destructive behavior in advance in order to avoid paying the consequences.

I will make sure my friend do her research about her preferred mate. She needs to find out whether he has any serious medical illness or whether he currently has any medical problems…

The article, “The Case for Paying College Athletes,” by Allen Sanderson and John Siegfried, seeks to provide an in-depth analysis of compensating college athletes. Specifically, Sanderson and Siegfried analyze the history of the NCAA and its governance, the reasons for operating commercialized sports programs, the market for college athletes, the NCAA’s power, the distributional aspects of change, and finally, how changes will arrive (Sanderson & Siegfried, 2015, p. 115-137). The authors begin with a description of both the history and governance of the NCAA. The NCAA was established in 1906, resulting from President Roosevelt’s advocacy to improve the safety of players (Sanderson & Siegfried, 2015, p. 117).…
