The Stranger By Albert Camus, Movie: Werner Herzog film collection: The Enigma of Kasper Hauser http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x12aofw_the-enigma-of-kaspar-hauser-1974-pt-1_creation http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x126umw_the-enigma-of-kaspar-hauser-1974-pt-2_creation You have now read two of the most famous examples of the unreliable narrator—Meursault (The Stranger )—and watched an example by one of the masters of the unreliable narrator in the medium of film, Werner Herzog. Though we cannot fully trust the accounts, what is it that we can know about the three male characters? About their experiences? What do we know from the information that, Camus and Herzog omit from their respective narratives? Your goal for this paper is to find where two of these characters intersect as they set off on the paths that are so painstakingly described for us, that is so painstakingly shaped by the societies in which they respectively exist. Remember that this is a close reading paper; outside sources are not necessary. It is often— if not always—easier to notice and analyze between people. This paper challenges you to find where they are also, more importantly, the same. This is where you will have to think critically about the characters you choose and provide textual evidence to support your conclusions. Outside in—meaning, you are analyzing the character's environmental factors that contributed to the development of their respective identities inside out—meaning, you are looking at the mental, emotional, behavioral aspects that form the identities of your chosen characters. Yes. Outside and inside are complexly linked. It is crucial to note where and when this is true for your characters.

Government spending and taxation

/in /by

I was needing help with these questions.  They are from the book Macroeconomics: Private and Public Choice, 14e.  It is the Special Topic 1.

2) During the past five decades, there has been a shift in the composition of the federal budget toward more spending on income transfers and health care and a smaller share for national defense.  Does economics indicate that this change will help Americans achieve higher living standards? Discuss.

3) Because the structure of the personal income tax is progressive, a larger share of income
is taxed at higher rates as real income increases.  Therefore, economic growth automatically
results in higher taxes unless off-setting legislative action is taken.  Do you think this is an attractive feature of the current tax system?  Why or why not?

4) Compared with the situation before 1981, the marginal tax
rates imposed on individuals and families with high incomes are now lower.  What was the top marginal personal income tax rate in 1980?  What is the top rate now?  Are you in favor of or opposed to the lower marginal rates? Why?

7)  Can democracy survive if a majority of the citizenry pay little or nothing in taxes while
benefiting directly from a higher level of government spending?  Why or why not?  Discuss.
