Money gives the illusion that it has a direct relationship to the work that is done. That is, the work one does is worth so much, equals so much money.

The "Religious Freedom Peace Tax Fund Act" in the United States, for instance, would give the government more tax revenue and would not change how much or how high a percentage of this money was spent on the military.

Perhaps somebody else is drafted to do so instead, but the conscientious objector does not

If they fail to guess, they still win PHP1,000 for being chosen.

Unlike the virtues discussed so far, an unjust person does not necessarily desire what is bad for himself or herself as an individual, nor does he or she even necessarily desire too much of things, if too much would be bad for him or her. Such "particular injustice" is always greed aimed at particular good things such as honor or money or security. To understand how justice aims at what is good, it is necessary to look beyond particular good or bad things we might want or not want a

It discusses the differences in the Canadian and US healthcare spending patterns and also discusses why healthcare expenditures are so much higher in the United States. Fuchs and Hahn found that the higher US expenditures were entirely based on 234 percent higher fees for services than Canada even though there are more physicians per capita in Canada. That shows that the typical view of Canada saving money by delivering fewer

Ponzi scheme


high returns to attract investors and entice current investors to invest more money. When other investors begin to participate, a cascade effect begins. The schemer pays a "return" to initial investors from the investments of new participants, rather than from genuine profits. Often, high returns encourage investors to leave their money in the scheme, so that the operator does not actually have to pay very much to investors. The operator simply sends statements showing how much they have earned, which maintains the deception that the scheme is an investment

We ask each worker how much time he needs to do each job, but, the workers might lie to us. Therefore, we have to give the workers an incentive to tell us their true timings by paying them a certain amount of money. The challenge is to design a payment mechanism which is incentive compatible. The truthful job scheduling problem was introduced by Nisan and Ronen in their 1999 paper on Algorithmic

The most potent result that arises from such distinction between the eastern and western application of academic entrepreneurship is the effect on the salary of the researchers. For the US, compensation for their researchers is decentralized, which gives the universities a profound amount of autonomy in determining how much they wish to pay their employers. This means that, in many cases, the salary of US-based AE
