With regard to the question “should marijuana be legalized,” we conclude the answer is “yes.” This conclusion is made based on the economics of the issue. The existing system involves significant expense to local government with no appreciable result. Marijuana remains readily available virtually anywhere in the nation, decades of the war on drugs notwithstanding. That a demand for this product exists is undeniable. Continued criminalization will accomplish nothing beyond driving costs up marginally. The evidence is seen in the results. To continue to do the same thing and expect a different result is one classic ...

The knowledge of non-consequentialism and its principles, whether unconsciously or otherwise, allows readers to perceive ...

It is a process of combining diverging viewpoints in order to arrive at an agreement. Negotiations can prevent or end a conflict while guaranteeing that both parties get at least fraction of what they desire. When both parties obtain major advantages, the negotiation is considered most successful. Nonetheless, any negotiation involves the risk of making a bad deal, and sometimes, a failed negotiation can worsen the existing conflict (Zartman ...

Many people agree that the most severe crimes deserve the most severe punishment. A great deal of people views the death penalty as a just and the most appropriate measure in this case. But do you know how many executions were carried out since 1978? Only thirteen. And these thirteen deaths cost about $4 billion taken from the pocket of California taxpayers (Alarcon and Mitchell 541). Impressive numbers, aren’t they? These figures speak for themselves. The death penalty system turned out to be ineffective and has to be replaced with more productive measures. The Proposition 34 is a ...

Me puse un fin de hacer claramente los fundamentos de las obras algunos de los detalles y ...

Gun ownership in the U.S. faced several controversies because some people were from the idea on the implementation of the gun control laws while the others opposed the idea. The proposed second amendment of the gun control is based on both the advantages and the disadvantages, but it is possible to identify some truth in it.
