Public good

Almost nothing good comes from public schools. I hear that public school is a place where fights, drugs, shootings, and terrible teachers can happen. Only one thing good comes from public schools, all kids can go to get some education and parents can go to work then. I see schools as necessary but need more improvement. Parents have to deal with their kids bad attitudes that they can pick up from school. In some places, schools don’t have good security and shootings happen. Some teachers do not…

think that he may be happy, great and glorious, by oppressing his fellow citizens; and that he may raise himself to grandeur on the ruins of his country. In a large republic, the public good is sacrificed to a thousand views; it is subordinate to exceptions, and depends on accidents. In a small one, the interest of the public is easier perceived, better understood, and more within the reach of every citizen; abuses are of less extent, and of course are less protected.” Other anti federalists…

By definition, “public good” is a commodity that is provided without benefit to ALL members of a society either by government, a private individual, or an organization. Hank Rearden proudly states, “The public good be damned. I will have no part of it!” (445) Thit profound statement brought the courtroom to an uproar of cheer and applause, leaving Hank just as startled as the three judges before him. His statement was bold, yet it set him apart from a great number of business men such as,…

However, it is undetermined if capital punishment is a public good due to the definition of a public good as something that is universal and a benefit to all people. Thereby, the basis of the death penalty may not fit the definition of a public good because it disrupts the satisfaction of others' (Meerman, 1980). Unfortunately, the cost of the death penalty is the lack of unanimity between the public and its representatives. Such was the case in 1988 when former Presidential Democratic candidate…

School, which is a public high school in a middle class town. There was about 1200 students in my school so I knew a lot of people but I would see new faces almost every day. I believe there are good things and bad things about public high schools because they have good and bad programs, they push you to go to college but have good opportunities if you are going to college, and they teach you based on the standardized test but have good liberal classes. My school had a really good math and…

She talks about how politicians nowadays justify lying for the greater good of society when, in fact, she believes that they lie in order to serve themselves. In addition, Bok tries “to single out, among these lies, the elements that are consciously and purposely intended to benefit society” (Bok 611). In other words, politicians, at first, act in a certain way that seems to be for the good of the country when, in reality, they consciously act this particular way in order to serve…

The subjectivity of what is “good” is substantially overestimated. Countless hours and innumerable pages have been spent quibbling over the boundaries, specifications, and quantifiers of the concept of good. But good has never been all that difficult to pin down. Certainly its trappings, its manifestations over the course of human history, may shift and change somewhat, but the things we as a species identify as “good” remain fundamentally static. What we think of as good, what we as people want…

#1. Why should taxpayers subsidize public colleges and universities? What external benefits are generated by higher education? Higher education creates human capital which is an important component in our economy. It’s no coincidence that employment shared a direct correlation with education. The external benefits are seen through breakthrough research in Universities and the distribution of valuable knowledge to peers and family. #2. If Israel’s private dome is so effective why doesn’t a…

Intro Does homeschooling work as a good alternative to public schooling? In my and many other American 's opinion the answer is yes. Homeschooling has been around for a long time, but it has seen a major increase in participants in recent decades. According to the Home Education Research Institute “About 1.5 million students in the United States are home schooled.” and “There were about 300,000 students in 1990.” Homeschooling has been starting to become more mainstream than it was just a decade…
