What goes up must go Down - 0 views

  •  
    this article expresses how the umemployment rates have shot up the past month and increase every day. The problem with unemployment statistics is not just numbers counted it is the numbers of unemployed and underemployed people who are NOT counted. The definition of unemployment excludes a huge number of unemployed and underemployed people. The counters ONLY count people actually, actively looking for work. sooner or later they rates will lower and employment rates will raise.

With the Figo, Ford Tries to Crash India's Car Market - 0 views

  •  
    This article talks about Ford Motor's involvement in the auto market. The article cites statistics showing that sales are falling, which means that the demand is elastic. The attempt to sell cars for a low price in India also shows that the demand for cars is elastic, as people are not willing to pay a high price for them.

Clue to the Low Uneployment Rate? 12% of men in prime work years not working or looking... - 0 views

  •  
    Despite their great numbers, many of the men not working are missing from the nation's best- known statistic on unemployment. The jobless rate is now low 4.6%, yet that number excluded most of the missinf men, because they have stopped looking for work and are therefore not considered officially unemployed. That makes the unemployment rate a far less useful measure of the country's well-being than it once was.

Say No to human trafficking - 0 views

  •  
    Human trafficking is 3rd largest global crime enterprise, exceded only by drug and arms trafficking, as many of you have heard over and over again " We have some very basic statistic on human trafficking". We've looked at this mainly as a law enforcement issue and as a human rights issue. But it is also an industry. By some estimates, the industry is growing, and the worldwide illegitimate gain from industry is as high as $ 32 billion per year. I think that this topic is relevant to this week "development" topic because it is one of the main worldwide crime, and governments all over the world should be fighting against it and it is one thing to develop.

    This article is about American's statistics of Keynesian economics. Some people think that its a good way of economy which helps US to stay in balance, other people think that Keynesian economics ruining US economy. -Washington has continued Keynesian economics well into the 21st century and that alone has caused the current economic collapse of the US economy. National telephone survey suggests that only 11% of Americans agree with the idea that the federal government needs to spend and increase the deficit during tough economic times, while 70% disagree with Keynesian economy. Americans should come ti agreement on which economy they should choose, so it can help them to get out of crisis.
