Budgeting is one of the most basic strategies that any number of groups and organizations depend on for financial planning. Families use budgeting to renovate their house, businesses use budgeting to continue providing their services: overall, budgeting is a necessity to insure that sufficient assets are available.

budget could be approved in the House if legislators could touch some of the entitlement programs. The problem with not being able to modify mandatory spending as easily as discretionary spending, is literally paying for stuff without actually analyzing its effectiveness and efficiencies. The Medicaid program is a perfect example. Federal government distributes money to the states and allows them to manage their own system as long as they meet federal standards. Meeting “the standards,” should…

As a result, the employers may not get the highest return for the overall spending for implementing the benefit programs. However, the total rewards program “will have a more positive impact on attraction, retention, and engagement while helping to manage the cost and volatility” (Kwon, J. and Hein, P., 2013, page 32).…

Government is a necessary entity that is meant to keep society thriving. However, when its actions contravene its cause it becomes counterproductive to say the least. Although, the Bible does instruct us to be acquiescent to our government. “Let every person be subject to governing authorities.
