The term laissez faire is a French term, which describes the absence of government control. The economic doctrine of laissez faire associates the process of a free market to the practice of natural selection. The presence of economic competition will clear out the fragile and reserve the strong. As a result, the economy flourishes and everyone ultimately benefits. The United States has never fully embraced the idea of having very limited government activity, especially in regard to the new…

no evidence backing up this statement and as a result, the audience can easily question the other aspects of my paper, not to mention the confusion I must have caused for my audience. I had failed in building up my own credentials like Stephen A. Smith in his respective show. I fixed this issue in my second paper “The Selfish Nature of Humankind.” Instead of vague statements, I supported claims with evidence. For example in my second paper I stated that “ The relationship developed between…

laws. Friedman argues that this sets up a government where people who are in special interests groups benefit, rather than the general interest of the people. He says that these conflicting policies work against the “invisible hand” created by Adam Smith.5 Friedman says that this happens when one person is advocating to get a major benefit from something that is in their special interest group.

Originally coined in 1972 by psychologist Irving Janis, the term “groupthink” has its roots in 1984. The Encyclopedia of Applied Psychology defines the phenomenon as “a condition in which highly cohesive groups in ‘hot’ decision situations display excessive levels of concurrence seeking that suppress critical inquiry and result in faulty decision making” (Aldag). Janis chose the name groupthink due to Orwell’s “doublethink” in 1984, a similar condition marked by the simultaneous acceptance of…

is a relatively new science. At first, there was no need for the study of Economics because everything belonged to the king. In 1776 Adam Smith wrote the famous book "The Wealth of Nations" and that book was the beginning of classical economics. It is quite ironic that the beginning of economic study was the same year as the American independence. Mr. Smith had the idea that individuals would always do what is best for themselves, and because of this, the cumulative result would be what is…

In Gayl Jones’ Corregidora one of the main texts focus and themes is centered and founded upon the blues. Through Ursa; the main characters singing of this specific genre of music, the reader is forced to recognize that Ursa’s singing ties in completely to her defined belief that her sole purpose is to “make generations” and her singing in a way fulfills that purpose as she in body can’t. The reader is given evidence to this by past recollections in the text, current statements that repeatedly…

The concept of the invisible hand refers to the logic of the free-market, espoused by Adam Smith, which posits that there is an invisible hand in a free market framework that ensures the most effective and socially optimal allocation of resources. Despite the widespread acceptance of this economic theory, the reality faced by individuals especially…

The ever-growing possibility of the panoptic design and totalitarianism ideologies are shown entirely within the pages of 1984 by George Orwell. The mind within, is a trap. Imagine living within the dystopian society of 1984, where thinking is wrong. Big Brother is the trigger that catches all those who question Big brother. There is only one way to survive in a world where ideas are commonly practiced and enforced is to become one with yourself. Which boils down and leaves but one choice, trust…
