... or the G- 7 plus some others, re-direct a
small percentage of their defense spending for the
defense of the worlds poor. We know that
redirecting just 5 % of what the world spends on
weapons and soldiers over ten years would be
sufficient to guarantee basic education, health
care and nutrition, potable water, and sanitation
to all of the worlds people. If we focused only on
funding a mandatory minimum of nine years of
education in every country, that percentage would
be even less. How quickl...

Comparing The Business Principles Of Carnegie And Lloyd
994 words
Survival of the fittest (502 Lloyd): it is the law
of businesses from past to present. Within two
very interesting excerpts from Andrew Carnegie's,
Wealth and William Demarest Lloyds, Wealth Against
Commonwealth, we as the reader get smacked in the
face with two very different views. Although both
writers have a common ground of money being the
main issue, they differ on how it should or should
not be administered from the rich to the poor. I
believe both writers present us with good points,
but...

Single Mothers Young Males

... to go to about problems, they cannot be blamed
when they grow. Children today cannot be expected
to go through their lives without anyone to lean
on for support. In most environments today
children that are born to young parents will have
no one to run to when they get stuck in a bad
situation. Instead of talking to a responsible
adult about their problems they are forced, as
children, to figure it all out themselves. Often
these children go solely on what they have seen on
the street when t...

Affirmative Action In College Admissions
774 words
Affirmative action is the practice, usually by
institutions, of giving preference to racial
minorities or women when hiring employees, giving
awards, or deciding whom to admit. Affirmative
action arose out of a desire to bring minority
groups into institutions and professions that had
traditionally been dominated by white males. It
first appeared after the Civil Rights movement of
the 1960 s. One of the largest groups that uses
affirmative action today are universities during
the admissions proc...

divorce. Given this startling figure, the

exactly about divorce that causes negative
consequences for these children? In what ways will
these children be effected? Will these effects
show outwardly? The unsettling fact is: young

Spinal Cord Stem Cells

Stem cell research looks to be one of the most
promising treatments for spinal cord injuries.
Stem cells are special because they are the
primitive cells that give rise to different kinds
of tissues in the body, and because they are self
renewing in the body and in the laboratory so that
large quantities can be produced for medical
purposes (The Promise of Stem Cells, 2002).
Another great quality of stem cells is that they
have the potential to develop into many different
cells in the body. When...

Psychological Egoism Human Nature

Why do elder horses protect the foals despite the
fact that they are often not related? Why do
baboon troops put the young baboon males in the
front to protect the group from predators? Why do
young men go to the front to save their country
from war? The traits described above are forms of
altruism. Individuals sacrifice their own fitness
to protect that of others. Yet when you look at it
in the Darwin evolutionary scheme of things, why
would this occur? Would not these genes be weeded
out over ...
