This discussion is a review of the protected health information (PHI) regulatory requirement as advanced by the state of Florida, the federal government’s HHS, and the Joint Commission (TJC). I believe that this regulatory measure stemmed out of HIPAA (1996) requirement that facilities restructure their electronic exchange, security, and privacy initiatives concerning PHI. The HHS, therefore, would direct, through Sections 261-264, that hospitals publicize their adherence procedures pertaining these issues. The following is an analysis of these three entities. The state of Florida, through Statute 456.057, advice that hospitals treat PHIs with the respect they deserve. Here, such ...

A bicameral parliament is a system of the legislative branch of the government made up of two complimentary houses that work together to pass laws. This system of parliament ensures that both the citizens and the government are adequately represented in the house and that sufficient consultations are made before any bills are passed into laws. In the case of the United States, the Senate embodies the interests of the state whereas the House of Representatives exemplifies the views of the country population as a whole (Moran 1895). The modes of qualification into these houses vary from one nation ...

How to overcome racism if our own justice system is racial? We know that our nation has struggled a lot of unjust racial cases. For example, in the period of pre-civil war, the southern part of the United States was covered with slavery. The life of Black-African American groups was horrible as they were slaves and were treated as slaves also. They were a property that white people could buy and sell, had no rights, and were not protected by the legislature. In 1865, Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery, and the modern days are known for the public fight with ...

The legislatures believed that capital punishment was the ...

Foremost, in the views of the Federalists, the only means through which the Constitution could maintain the partition of powers into the executive, legislative, and judiciary departments was through instructions incorporated into the structure of government. Accordingly, as Madison explains in Federalist #51, the Constitution gives each department “a will of its own” by ensuring that factors such as appointments are devoid of the other two’s influence. However, the new government gives more power to the “fountain of authority,” the citizens. By that logic, in the strictest sense, the people reserve the right to select the Head of ...

ABSTRACT

One of the interesting unique aspects of the American legal system is that it really is two systems, namely one at the federal level and one at the state level. Generally, the two systems have little interaction. That is to say, the federal legal system focuses on issues involving the federal government, foreign affairs, and relations between the states. Conversely, the state legal system focuses on matters state specific matters such as education and healthcare. Two areas, however, where the state and federal legal system often interact and occasional collide is immigration and crime. The 2012 Supreme Court case, ...

American Government GOVT2011603B-02 D. V. Villarrell The Branches of the Unites States Government IP2 The United States Constitution has ensured that the US government is divided into three separate branches-the executive, the legislative and the judicial, so there would be checks and balances and that neither one branch can abuse the power vested in it.

For instance, President Obama has issued presidential orders ...

Assignment 1: Charter of Privileges Granted by William Penn

What did the first article guarantee for the inhabitants of the province? What did it accomplish? The first article guaranteed to the inhabitants of the province the freedom of faith, freedom to choose whichever denomination, one preferred as well as entitled representatives of any such denomination to be equally eligible for occupying offices, both executive and legislative. However, the very wording of the Charter is a little bit tricky in relation to religion, because having in mind the condition of believing in the Only Almighty God that was stipulated by Penn in the Charter one can conclude that diversification ...

Abstract

Over the past years, the criminal justice system has experienced both praises and criticism involving the manner in which various officers enforce law and order. While most officers strive to ensure sanctity and order prevail among all equals, a section of the officers overlook the art of humanity and apply undue force to innocent and suspected individuals. Unfortunately, the blanket of corruption shields the officers from prosecution in the effort to safeguard the exposition of the inner affairs of the police culture. Corruption broils police brutality and individual victimization with unwarranted allegations as a weapon to silence their sufferings. ...

ABSTRACT

The Sedition Act of 1798 was signed into law by the Federalist Party when there was fear of war in France and to prevent their rival political party, the Democratic-Republicans, from speaking out against and criticizing the Federalist party, which could result in legal ramifications, including fines and jail time. The Sedition Act was and remains an example of unconstitutional legislature that undermined the spirit of the Constitution and the First Amendment guaranteeing Americans the freedom of speech, expression and press. The Act was hypocritical and defied the principles that the United States was founded upon. It made it ...

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 ...

Introduction

The distinction between how the West and the East control their local affairs, and how they organize their institutions is enormous. In a normal context, though, even two states in similar vicinity exhibit major differences in individual economic policies, religious inclination, and political systems. Notwithstanding that, it is important to appreciate the similarities and dissimilarities that manifest due to the location in certain regions. The case of Saudi Arabia and France is a good one to understand how regional influences affect, the systems of government, political institutions, faith and economic policies of a state. For instance, the Saudi Arabia ...

Identify the three branches of Texas government and describe their functions.

Texas was admitted as the 28th State back on 29 December 1845. This was nine years after its secession from Mexico in 1836. The current constitution of Texas was adopted in the year 1876 (“Texas State Government at a Glance, n.d.”). As a result, the Texas’ government operates under its Constitution, which comprises a type of unitary democracy for its state government, one that uses the Dillon Rule in addition to governments both at the municipal and county levels (“Abbott, n.d.”). The Constitution of Texas divides the power of state movement into three specific departments namely the legislative, executive ...

In ancient societies, people believed that the hierarchy of human society was based on the divine right of certain people to lead and the divine permission to keep others as lower class members of society. This shamed the parameters of social order until the Age of Enlightenment and Reformation in the 16th and 17th Centuries. The American and French Revolutions laid the foundation for the creation of a system of civil liberties and human rights which required some basic rights to be accorded to all human beings without exception. Human rights is defined as “a set of freedoms guaranteed ...

The 1876 Texas Constitution is among the most detailed state constitutions within the United States. There have been a significantly high number of proposed constitutional amendments since the document became operational on 15 February 1876 (Ericson). From the outset, it is important to note that the high number of amendments to the Texas Constitution is because it is highly restrictive given that the State of Texas can only exercise powers derived from the its Constitution. The Texas Constitution is similar to the other State constitutions because it provides for the separation of powers, but also includes some provisions that ...

In the 4th Century BC, Aristotle clearly stated that for a government to have an effective constitution, it must have in place three basic elements. These are a public assembly, various officers of the state and lastly a judicial department. One of the most famous quotes of John Adams is ‘power must never be trusted without a check’. This may be said to mean that in instances that an individual or an institution which is tasked with the authority to rule over a people should never be given the absolute authority to have the absolute authority. Institutions checking on ...

When Federalists and Anti-Federalists were debating about the new U.S. Constitution, one of the most controversial issues was the balance of power between the national and state governments. In order give more power to the national government, Federalists had to take into account Anti-Federalists’ views and introduce three branches of power that would be empowered to control each other. James Madison, one of America’s founding fathers, wrote in The Federalist Papers that “power is of an encroaching natureit ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it.” (Cited in The Federalist Papers Project 19). It ...

The ongoing internationalization process persuaded regulators and businesses worldwide to think of a common global accounting language for business affairs. This move led to the development of IFRS. International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), sometimes referred to as International Accounting Standards, is a globally recognized accounting framework for businesses worldwide. The major purpose of this accounting standard is to make company accounts understandable and comparable across international boundaries. Currently, over 110 countries are following the IFRS accounting system in order to address complexities relating to international business affairs. However, the United States has not adopted IFRS yet, and the country ...

The US Constitution was born amidst the uncertainty and the instability that the Articles of Confederation could not correct. In crafting the set of “institutional arrangements of government” (Lowi et al 2015, p. 40), which was believed to result in the strengthening the union of the various states that the Articles were not able to do, the framers had to tread a delicate balance between state independence and federal government power. Their deliberation of the document was largely underpinned by lessons from past historic experiences that underscored the weaknesses of the Articles. In crafting the Constitution, there were several ...

Almost US, but still Latin America. This is the brief definition one can give to Puerto Rico. US is actively engaged in cooperation with the archipelago, but the chances that this area ever really become an integral part of the United States are still unclear. More so, it is a unique habitat with its own unique development system, including the judiciary. Puerto Rico is a dependent territory of the United States and has the status of "unincorporated organized territory”, which means that the area is under the control of the United States (and is not an integral part thereof), ...

Analysis of the Documentary Food, Inc. through the Lens of Ethical Theories and Ideas

Some may wonder whether the food choice is an ethical issue. After all, we make these choices at least three times a day and our individual decisions influence the global industry of food growth, production and processing. As Jones, Cardinal and Hayward remind us, we exist in society and are connected to other people. This is why our choices, in our case, the food choices, affect other people, and their decisions influence us as well (2006, p. 3). Various theories of ethics propose different ways of viewing the problems of food production and consumption and seek solutions in distinct ...

In the United States, apportionment describes the process of distributing seats in the House of Representatives among the 50 states. Each state is given seats according to its population as stated in the constitution. Every state must get at least one seat. Redistricting is a constitutional process that takes place every ten years where American districts of the state legislatures and U.S. House are redrawn. This occurs after the new population is announced by the U.S. Census Bureau. Some states lose some seats, others gain while others remain with the same number depending on the population change. Sometimes gerrymandering ...

For this comparative research, we selected Spain and Germany, two countries of the European Union with similar political parliamentarian systems. Personification is a distinctive feature of presidentialism and it seems reasonable to examine to what extent this trend occurs in European parliamentary systems today.

The position of political leaders in parliamentary systems is different from the position occupied by them in the presidential republics. Lijphart identifies three characteristics that distinguish essentially presidentialism and parliamentarianism (Lijphart, 2000). Firstly, in a presidential system the executive chief is elected directly by the electors by popular vote and therefore without legislative intervention, so ...

The main characteristic of direct democracy is that it gives the people a chance have an immediate impact on the decision-making processes that would otherwise be subject to the whims of individuals. For the given reason, a rift exists between direct and representative democracy. While one may call on direct democracy to rectify or control the actions of political leaders, the actions ought to remain within the confines of real democracy. For that reason, the strengths of the California State Legislature stem from the fact that direct democracy can reassure voters of a chance at law-making processes that the ...

The principle of separation of powers is one of the oldest at common law, having been enunciated by John Locke in his Constitutional theory. In his treatise, Civil Government, he argued that it would be a wrong for the same person to have law making powers and the powers to execute the same law. According to him, such powers were vested in the same institution or group of persons, there would be a great temptation of such individuals to use such powers to their own benefit and also to exempt themselves from their application. This principle was later modified ...

Many a time have people heard about politicians who do plenty of talking. However, verbal rhetoric is only meaningful when backed by actual deeds aimed at the improvement of what politicians oversee, which is society and its welfare. The incumbent Senate President of New Jersey, Stephen Sweeney is one of such politicians who may be said to utilize his legislative authority to its limit. He has showed his aptitude in areas, such as education, property ownership, taxation, healthcare, and the protection of different social categories. Of course, as with other prominent politicians, however renowned, Sweeney has made some controversial ...

In every country, there are three alternatives to the executive systems. The first system is the “presidential system where the president is the head of the government and the head of state” (Verma, 2009, p. 71). The second alternative of the executive system is the parliamentary system. In the parliamentary system, the president or the monarch can be the head of the state. The third system is the semi-presidential system in where there is both the President and the Prime Minister (Verma, 2009, p.72). The difference between the parliamentary system and the Semi- Presidential system is that the president ...

Question 1

The most important difference between the SMD and PR rests on the basis of electing leaders. In the first instance, SMD occurs mostly in larger countries such as the U.S, U.K, and Canada. In this case, the country is often divided into respective districts or constituencies. Residents of these geographically divided areas get the opportunity to elect their leaders to the legislature or parliament (O’Neal). In this case, the contestant who obtains the majority of the vote is declared the winner. This system is also referred to as a winner-takes-all approach or the first-past-the-post method.

America exists as a highly ethnically diverse democratic country. In the mid-twentieth century, Edward Murrow voiced a budding hope about the improving standards of equality across races and genders (NPR, 2005). Equality within the American society describes the equitable sharing of all national resources across diverse social groups such as race, gender, and sexual orientation. Since the eradication of segregation in America, numerous strategies aimed at standardizing healthcare across races have been put in place. However, despite these efforts, there still exist persisting and puzzling health disadvantages to African Americans (Mays, Cochran, & Barnes, 2007).

Question 1

The subject matter of electoral systems is the main component that anyone interested in democracy and governance should focus on. For any democratic and representative democracy country, elections play a very critical role in determining those who are going to rule. In essence, elections execute two essential tasks: one is to grant authority to those elected to represent the electorate and also to hold legislators accountable for their actions while in power (O'neil, 2015). Achieving the two goals ultimately relies on the electoral systems which are in place. An electoral system is defined as formal structure and means of ...

The Fair Sentencing Act

On August 3, 2010, President Barack Obama signed into law the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010, for the first time in the History of the U.S (Grindle, 2010).

Introduction

Most of the African countries were under the colonial rule. Due to the growth of industries in Europe, which was facilitated by the concept of industrialization that saw numerous economic, social and industrial changes in Europe, European countries had to look for raw materials for their industries. Consequently, they ventured into the African continent and other parts of the world in search of places where they would get raw materials for their industries back at home (Ahluwalia, 2012). Various European countries portioned Africa into different colonies, and Kenya was taken by Britain. Kenya is a beautiful country that is ...

When Britain’s' thirteen colonies in North America took up arms against the mother country, the prospects of an independent nation demanded a new government for the free people. Notably, there was pressure to ensure that the new laws were democratic as opposed to the Monarchical rule exerted by the British on the colonists. Hence, in 1777, the Founding Fathers attempted a government based on the autonomy of the individual States by proposing the Articles of Confederation at the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia. The Articles came into effect in 1781when the States ratified them but by 1789, the ...

The legislation is a vital as well as inherent part of the judicial responsibility which helps to balance power representing constituencies and making laws. The bill, however, raises a broader implication emerging with the principles of universal laws. Abdication of judicial responsibility for judges might conflict with the ideas of the rule of law and the separation of power given the fact that this grossly understates the impact of legislation as well as overemphasizes the contrasts along with boundaries between legislation and common law at the expense of their mutual influence, continuities, and similarities. This reflects the way in ...

The constitution emerged to create a structured society through the creation of a stable system of government and protection of individuals’ powers. It creates three branches of government with different responsibilities and mandates that complement each other in achieving the government objectives. The legislature has a responsibility of making laws, the executive implements the laws, while the judiciary undertakes their interpretation (Cox, 1987, p.42). The Constitution regulates the powers of these branches so that none is superior to the other, but rather work in harmony. It also outlines the powers of the federal government such as printing money, controlling ...

Democracy can be explained as a situation in which case the people have the supreme power to elect individuals they deem fit to lead. In the words of Abraham Lincoln, democracy is a government by the people, for the people, and of the people (Shively, 2005). The current global situation illustrates the majority of countries being democratic in nature while others subvert this option to reinforce anarchy and other systems of government. In this instance, this paper will evaluate two main systems of government, parliamentary and presidential systems in order to determine the level of democracy and appropriateness of ...
