A. To begin with, the poem Ambulance Down the Valley narrated a story wherein people are captivated to trudge on a dangerous cliff in order to witness the majestic view that being on top of the cliff provides. However, most people sustain injuries and some are killed for it is a life- threatening hike. Consequently, the people decided to that a strategic measure should be done in order to mitigate the number of people that are badly affected by the trek on the cliff. Notably, they had arrived at a crossroads, because some of the citizens had wanted to build a fence around the cliff to prevent people from slipping and eventually falling to their deaths. Meanwhile, some had suggested that an ambulance must be situated at foot of the cliff, so …show more content…
The essence of decision making – and, in turn, the essence of politics – is compromise: compromise in both positive and negative aspects of a possible solution. And in every decision- making process, the most efficient way may not be the one that is most followed. People may follow suit to others, depending on their beliefs, on their personal inclinations, and their opinions on the matter. And yes, these idiosyncrasies in every individual eventually show themselves as they decide on the matter as a whole. Less-informed people, on that matter, are more likely to choose a less efficient solution, yet there are exceptions for both parties: more informed people are also likely to give out more convoluted solutions to simple problems. As mentioned before, the key concept here is Balance and Impartiality. What the supporters of the ambulance fail to see is that, despite their well intentions, their lack of support for the fence causes more suffering in the long run. This is akin to how Mother Theresa’s charity had focused on alleviating the sick as they were dying, rather than preventing these deaths in the first place (Hitchens, 1995) By actively supporting a less optimal approach, they had influenced the whole body to act accordingly, as they were the
How is the public supposed to choose a candidate when it’s hard to tell who is telling the truth? One of the main differences
In recent years, there has been a shortage of primary care physicians and clinics, and the rise of healthcare cost. The supply and demand in the healthcare industry in the United States has not met the equilibrium point. Most of these issues have led to the expansion of urgent care clinics. UCCs initially started in the 1980s but were not famous due to lack of consumer interest. But that has changed due to the convenient access that it provides users.
At least in the United States, the population is so polarized between liberal and conservative ideas that almost no one is willing to make compromises. One can only hope that the people of the U.S. will compromise and acknowledge differing approaches or potentially meet the same, devastating fate that befell the Kingdom of Thebes and the Oedipus
Essentially every political gathering shows a rundown of hopefuls and voters can choose a rundown, which is they vote in favor of a political gathering. Gatherings are allotted parliamentary seats relatively to the quantity of votes they get. Fundamentally, Political gatherings assume a key part in making political arrangements (even in a lion's share decision framework). A sensible number of contending gatherings will make more and better thoughts while only two major gatherings (coming about because of the lion's share race framework) have a tendency to be at a stop with rigid positions. Qualities, Advantages and disadvantages with a few gatherings there is more decision and voters will probably discover a gathering that represents their major political feelings than would be conceivable in a two-party framework.
This is a risky scenario because it restricts citizens' ability to make informed decisions and think critically about their surroundings. Citizens must have access to a variety of information sources in order to make informed decisions and fully participate in the political process in a free and democratic
Therefore, once the voters discern that the current status quo is unproductive, they seek another path to follow to tackle these inefficiencies. Since our nation prides itself on the two-party system, voters really do not have the choice but to turn to
This is where stubbornness can be a good thing. In today’s world we see both sides of stubbornness as well. People will choose a political leader that they like, and that leader can say or do something awful, but the person will still support them because they are too stubborn to admit they were wrong. On the other hand, a good example of stubbornness is ignoring negative criticism or something along those
Position on the Topic It is evident that the believing and doubting game involves trying to evaluate the set beliefs and ideas that have been formulated by other individuals against our standards. Most people use the believing tool to test and scrutinize arguments by other people. Consequently, this paper has chosen three opposing viewpoints on the debate against and for abortion. For many years, the topic of abortion has been greatly been discussed in the United States.
I was highly impressed by the overall teamwork in the emergency department. It has a sense of organized chaos that would have taken me some time to adjust to. My nurse and I ended up going through a large group of patient during the time I was there. The nurse has this uniformity to how she would get her tasks done. The thing that through me off was the amount of stuff got done with our patients by other people.
Second, there is a problem of resolving differences in preferences: How much should be provided if different individuals desire that the government should, for instance, spend different levels on providing public goods? 2. Majority voting is the simplest way by which such differences are resolved. Unfortunately, a majority voting
Attempting to enact significant legislation requires Congress and the White House to compromise and anticipate what others will approve of and pass. When a bill successfully passes both houses of Congress, which has become increasingly difficult due to party polarization and radical groups within the House of Representatives and the Senate, it then goes to the president for signing. This is a lengthy process, and in order for groups of people with opposing views to settle in agreement on a measure, a great deal of negotiation is often required. This can result in a piece of legislation that is a compromised, diluted version of its original form that is not an effective solution to the initial problem. Vague, weak legislation often necessitates further action by the other two branches of government in order to interpret and execute it properly.
During a poetry unit, many high school students have read the words, “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood.” These are the opening lines to “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost, a famous poem included in his collection Mountain Interval. The poem starts with the narrator walking in the woods and seeing two roads split from each other. He has to decide which road to take since this decision will forever shape him as a person. The speaker must recognize what can be gained and lost by each individual road and the choice to follow it.
This is the main cause for the failure of the revolutions of 1848. In all societies there are conservatives, moderates, and radicals. The government bases their “party” off of the moderate’s votes. For example, if the moderates vote more for the radicals “party” and the radicals get too radical they will lean more towards the conservative
For example, when discussing group project with my teammates from other countries, I found we had quite different opinions over the topic, as I would focus more on the welfare and benefits of developing countries in Asia through the integration process, while they may consider the benefits as a
For the voter, because there are so many other voters, one vote can hardly make any difference, at the same time, if the "correct" policy wins, the voter will benefit from it no matter he voted for it or not, which suggests that the marginal benefit from correct information is zero. Therefore the rational choice of every voter is to spend no extra effort in getting correct information at all. While voters are not informed, it leaves space for politicians to cheat and lobbies to persuade. For somebody can persuade others and get the parties more votes, they are treated with higher priority
