The Crisis in Male Wages - Richard Florida - Business - The Atlantic - 1 views

  • The returns to analytical skill rise consistently across the skill distribution; moving from the 25th to the 75th percentile increases earnings by more than $25,000.  The same basic pattern holds for social intelligence skills, like teamwork, communication, people management, and so forth;
  • "men's work" as it was once understood--low skill, relatively well-paid physical labor (good factory jobs, in a nutshell)--is clearly the victim of the deep structural change in the economy. For the past several decades, the combination of technology and globalization has not only reduced the number and share of high-wage, low-skill production jobs that were once the province of male breadwinners. On top of this, the rate of return to these physically-skilled jobs has declined.

Perplexing ethical dilemmas of online marketing - iMediaConnection.com - 1 views

  • That is, agency-side audience networks are leveraging the targeting data in which pu

  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Question 2: Is it morally correct for agencies to be opaque with publishers and/or clients as to how they're leveraging data?
  • Question 3: Is it OK for agencies to both buy and sell inventory to the same advertiser?
  • There's that issue, plus the question posed by the arbitrage situation itself. What's the "acceptable" margin for ad inventory if an agency acts as both buyer and seller to an advertiser? Is that situation even morally permissible?
  • We all need to be thinking about these questions. And we need to think about it more deeply than simply drawing parallels to what happens in the traditional direct marketing business or by propping up imperfect analogies that don't apply in the digital world.

    This article does a good job at examining one of the ethical dilemma of online data... this article probably well positioned for a graduate student.

Do oil companies deserve tax breaks? - The Arena | POLITICO.COM - 2 views

  • At a time when citizens need jobs such proposals to raise taxes should be a non starter. Higher taxes are job killers. Pawlenty's record is not one of raising taxes which should bode well for him.

    I love how supporters of Reagan economics refuse to do what he did time and time again, raise tax's when we NEED to!

Internships and Employment Law - 0 views

  • However, if you read the scripts and perform any work that is used by anyone in the company to make any type of decision about that script, then you must be paid for your time.
  • The U.S. Department of Labor has outlined a list of criteria that ALL must be met in order for an internship to be unpaid. The training, even though it includes actual operation of the facilities of the employer, is similar to that which would be given in a vocational school; The training is for the benefit of the trainee; The trainees do not displace regular employees, but work under close observation; The employer that provides the training derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the trainees and on occasion the employer’s operations may actually be impeded; The trainees are not necessarily entitled to a job at the completion of the training period; and The employer and the trainee understand that the trainees are not entitled to wages for the time spent in training.
