    it is possible to discern them through their intent. Lawyer knowledge and persuasion techniques can be separate from morality and justice. justice can have different interpretations and ways of being enforced in the legal system to different people. the intent principle comes into effect and is blurred by the lines of the system. in an ideal means thought it is a black and white principle, forced to be hindered so the two can be present to be presented in a system that can be defined to be exact through the jury and the other people it must come to be inferred through.

    1) Consider the nature of Jay Z's approach to managing his persona and his subtle influence in handling the challengers in the hip hop/rap industry.

    From a policy standpoint, how is it that this may be registered to the people were it a political debate between candidates? and in regards to our modern issues of war and the economy, what combination of pacifism and relentlessness would be favored between handling enemies and then the people governed/influenced?

    2) Now think about Dan Pink's video and how money was viewed negatively as a motivator, but as an inducement it was beneficial. what draws the line between the two and how might that be present in our modern issues today?

    I would agree that healthcare has been turned into a commodity more than anything. Our market capitalism has turned it void of the just moral sense of going about the notion of a fair system or what health care should entail. We've become infamous for only what is produced.

    In the market system in general I feel there has to be a social reformation of it. At the trend of Keyenesian economics the internal stabilizations of the system is constantly at odds with people prompting the desire for an input of the fair market system of the polis and its input. Essentially its policy gridlock where not one can flourish at the detriment of the other.

    Money often times is the means thats forwards even some sense of culture. It envelops universal means to a status and structure for governance. Money in itself with nothing to give it ends and a purpose is essentially useless since it entails the basis for any foundation. Virtuous notions intended or not, the tendencies to be part of a collective does accrue for a need of a source of income to really buy a way into that collective and more over function into it. Culture can be skilled and detail oriented in being more over developed rather than money alone accounting for the the style of capitalism the united states essentially is diluted in amongst its melting pot collective of communities. each community really holds a foot due to paying its dues; in a literal and figurative sense. Culture is rich in certain spheres, just not so widespread as Rosling would intend.

    I absolutely say this framing technique has been going on for years. In the old west days of american civilization, "medicine men" would sell you concoction of a plethora of absolutely nothing significant to yield results for their claims of living forever. They would set up a public expo at a time and before hand meet with a friend who would arrive either before or after and rise to the claim of "trying it out" and then saying "I feel great. you do feel younger and stronger after drinking this!" Logistics of this method were short hand then so a man's word was his worth and people wanting to believe people can be good would buy into this illusion in good faith, other placed in the wrong people. Luring in with a scapegoat like that is no different today. Taking this innocent mind set of faith into this next example, If Beyonce says this makeup is wonderful for her, everyone who wants to be like her will more or less buy it. Same for David Beckham; he appears in GQ wearing this, this this and that, even guys would have a notion in mind that maybe its worth the added charisma you'd get to be more like him. It comes down to principle of how people carry themselves. Too optimistic and too much faith sets you up to be used by the good of people out for nothing of your well intent. They just come off as so. Too pessimistic and no one will want to be involved with you. Only so many people want to be saviors and even that role of oneself is dying off. In good faith and good mind you have to no reasonable warning signs or positive reinforcement of when to back off and when to push forward to know the set of circumstances you as the consumer desire an if they can yield from what is in front of you when you rise up to them respectively.
