Economic freedom cannot be fully instated as long as interdependence
exists. The reasoning for this is that interdependence directly effects
economic freedom. The basic idea in these two terms is options.
Economic freedom means having unlimited and unrestricted options, while
interdependence equals limited options. It is impossible for these two
ideas to completely coexist to the entirety of their definitions. The
government is forever creating and amending rules, regulations, and
laws, which constitutes in limiting economic choices and options.
Economic freedom is the aspect of choice. It is a concept that allows
each individual to fully choose exactly how they use their money while
having unlimited options when making economic decisions, with the
advantage of unbounded possibilities. If there were unlimited options,
it would mean that anything that is desired should be able to become
reality. With the absence of restrictions, having unlimited options
allows individuals to act independently with their decisions.
Interdependence, relating to the consumer, is practically the opposite
of economic freedom. Interdependence means limited options and added
restrictions. With interdependence, the choices the consumer makes and
the options he has are dependent on the decisions made by others. They
could be other consumers, entrepreneurs, or the government. Laws,
taxes, and the role of Alan Greenspan are also part of this idea.
Interdependence means that all the consumer's economic decisions are out
of his control because they depend on the decisions of others. Based on
this definition, interdependence and economic freedom are opposing
concepts.
The concepts are similar in that they are both economic terms that
entail a system of making decisions based on the consumer. Both also
deal with the concept of options. However, that is also exactly how
they are different. It is like two sides of a coin, one is for options,
and one is against them. Economic freedom is all about unlimited
options; therefore, it could not possibly coexist with a governing that
relies on limiting options. Achieving complete economic freedom depends
on interdependence and what limits are being set. It is possible that
both concepts could coexist in a watered down state, like a compromise.
There may be a variety of choices in one area for the consumer, but not
in another area. It is also possible that complete economic freedom
does not exist. In the American economy, the government is the main
source of interdependence, but without the government, America's economy
would be shattered.
This cycle tends to last anywhere from five to seven years and is shorter for hair on the eyebrows, armpits and pubic area. Inside the bulb of each hair is a component called the dermal papilla which controls the hair growth while the matrix of the hair, which contains a large amount of epidermal cells that rapidly divide, is responsible for the length of the hair. Next is the catagen phase which is characterized as a transition period between the anagen and telogen phases. At this time the hair bulbs are pushed out in order to become keratinized and the hair appears short and thick. This phase tends to only last between two and three weeks. During the telogen phase, no new cell division occurs, which means that the length of the hair remains the same. This pause allows the dermal papilla to fill up the matrix with new cells in preparation for the anagen phase to begin again. This phase can last between three and nine months. After this phase, the anagen phase begins again. The telogen phase is periodically followed by shedding, or exogen. This leads to the last phase, the exogen phase. This phase is characterized by the shedding of hair. Each day about one hundred hairs are shed from the average individual’s scalp. The shaft of the hair is shed and the follicle remains. Despite the fat that the exogen phase usually follows the telogen phase, there are exceptions when it does not, resulting in hair follicles needing to go
According to the World Health Organisation (2017) the social determinants of health are defined as the conditions where people are born, grown, work and live, which also includes the health system. The social determinants of health determined populations health’s outcomes and therefore linked with health inequalities (WHO, 2017)
In Chapter four, The Capitalist Market: How it Actually Works, by Wright and Rogers, there are two parts to human freedom, negative and positive freedom. Positive freedom is “the actual capacity of people to do things” (Wright and Rogers, 48). A person is able to do more things and has a greater reach on what they want to act and do in the world. Positive freedom gives a person a limitless choice as to what they want to do.
The most common type of hair loss is androgenetic alopecia. Androgenetic alopecia is male or female pattern baldness and will affect 40% of men by the age of 35, and by the age of 50 about 50% of men will have significantly thinning hair. In women pattern hair loss is most likely to occur after menopause. It is called pattern hair loss because in men the hair is lost in a well-defined pattern, beginning above both temples. Over time, the hairline recedes to form a characteristic “M” shape. Hair also thins at the crown, often progressing to partial or complete baldness. The pattern of hair loss in women is...
Capitalism is an economic system characterized by the private ownership of the means of production, and where production is guided and income distributed largely through the operation of markets. The objective of a capitalist society is to gain profit.
Health inequalities in any country is an important issue. There are many reasons for inequalities in health, for example, gender and age, economic and social factors.
Over the years, the social determinants of health (SDOH) have been receiving more attention due to its importance in determining peoples’ health access, health quality and health outcome. The social determinants of health have been described by various scholars as the situation or environmental condition in which people are born, or where they grow, live and work; unfortunately these conditions have continued to affect and determine people’s ability to access proper care.1-5 In other words, the SDOH continues to consciously and unconsciously influence people’s access to most opportunities in life including access to healthcare services both in developed and developing countries.2 This issues have continue to deteriorate in most developing countries increasing people’s susceptibility to multi-morbidity among different age groups, with a slight increase among the elderly.6
America is the land of the free. From the moment of its birth to now, Americans have boasted in their country for this reason. However, at some points in history this boast can be contradictory. When national identities began to form in society, they were formed from the ideas of freedom and individuality. Some people formed an identity that supported mainly individualism and freedom, but it did not consider slavery too much to begin with. This identity is the national identity of a free man’s country. The other identity held the same values except it excluded everyone but white males. This is a national identity of a white man’s country. As time grew on, these identities grew stronger. When they finally clashed they brought along
Alopecia Areata is a widespread autoimmune disease that attack our hair follicles. It starts out as one or a couple of bald spots primarily on the scalp, but could happen anywhere on the body. Total hair loss from the scalp could be a factor, which is called alopecia totalis, or complete body hair loss called alopecia universalis. Alopecia areata can occur at any age in males and females, but primarily from most cases, it initially gets profound in childhood. So far, over 6.6 million Americans suffer from the disease, and over 147 million people have, or have had the disease sometime in their lifetime (“What”). The diseases effects are different in all individuals. Some people could have only a few quarter sized smooth spots here and there,
David Grayson once said that "Commandment Number One of any truly civilized society is this: Let people be different". Difference, or individuality, however, may not be possible under a dictatorial government. Aldous Huxley's satirical novel Brave New World shows that a government-controlled society often places restraints upon its citizens, which results in a loss of social and mental freedom. These methods of limiting human behavior are carried out by the conditioning of the citizens, the categorical division of society, and the censorship of art and religion.
Capitalism is an economic system where people and private businesses are able to control their own trade and means of production for profit. It emerged as technology, production and trade began to increase. During the industrial revolution, capitalism started to influence people more. Some characteristics of capitalism are capital accumulation, competitive markets and wage labor. The government isn’t supposed to interfere with trade. Individual markets raise or lower their prices due to competition and demand for goods. There has been a lot of debate over the usefulness of capitalism. Some believed capitalism had negative effects while others saw more benefits. Adam Smith and Andrew Carnegie pushed for a capitalistic society, but had different beliefs on how economic wealth should be distributed; Karl Marx advocated for a communistic society where wealth was evenly distributed.
Threat of substitutes in market as best quality is not always a priority for some customers as they are price sensitive.
Aare we really free in The USA? Are we free to make our own choices? The USA government and corporation control our water supply, food supply, medical, media, military and money supplies. So to say that we are really free is a misnomer.
In 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. closed his famous “I Have a Dream” speech with the lines, “Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!” Each year thousands of American high school seniors express the same sentiment as they graduate. However, many high school graduates have a choice to make shortly after graduation; attend college or join the workforce. These two paths offer their own advantages and disadvantages, but they both share a common trait; independence. This crossroad can place many graduates in an option-weighing quandary, because the lure of quick and sometimes easy money can persuade many to enter the workforce immediately. Whether graduates are right or wrong in their judgments, they all maintain their own sovereignty. The newfound freedom that many graduates inherit brings forth new responsibilities and unforeseen consequences that help shape the outcome of their lives.
Freedom is not free. The United States is known as a “free” nation but it didn't come free. We constantly have troops fighting and risking their lives every day throughout the entire globe in order for us obtain and maintain our freedom. It is ironic to say that freedom isn’t free but it has always comes at a price. Sometimes the price is people’s lives which is what makes freedom such a valuable thing for everyone, but that price must always be payed.
