Find A Job Financial Stability
849 words
Sometimes it seems as if our jobs are slave
masters, barking out orders telling us when, how
long, and where to do our needed task. Why do
people listen? Why would someone want to work a
graveyard shift with double-overtime? It is not
because they want to, as the old utopian adage
goes, accomplish their job for the betterment of
the community. No, most people work because they
are stuck in a financial rut and they are trying
to claw their way out. Why else would anyone put
himself or herself thr...

commander who fought valiantly in World War One
and achieved mythic stature among the armies of

knew Germany was going to lose the war but fought
the battles all the same. Sadly though his life

Fights For The Right Reasons Idea Of Hubris Lines
607 words
Websters dictionary defines a hero as one greatly
regarded for his achievements or qualities. This
is only a rough definition, and applies only
somewhat to Beowulf. A hero is usually the main
character; he is, according to Mr. Re, a man who
fights for the right reasons, usually confident
and possessed of superhuman abilities, at least as
it applies to Beowulf's time period. Less common
in that period in time is the idea of hubris, a
fatal weakness on the part of every hero. Beowulf

Predatory Pricing Antitrust Laws

The case against Microsoft is based not just on
bad economics, but on a fundamental
misunderstanding of government's decision-making
role when it comes to market operations. This
misunderstanding has led to an attack on one of
the USs most successful firms. It is difficult to
measure consumer "harms", much less harms that may
only occur in the future. A common misconception
about antitrust law is that its purpose is to
ensure fair competition. That's not true;

Brutus And Cassius Julius Caesar

In William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, Caesar was
elected ruler for fear of instability and killed
for fear of tyranny. The citizens of Rome are
timorous about having an unstable government
because they dont want war and fighting within
their country. But a fully stable government can
and must be run by only one person, because no
matter how well two people get along, they will
always have disagreements. Therefore, if tyranny
is reached, one person has all the power and
cannot be controlled. Th...
