Government Regulation of the Microsoft Corporation Does the government have the right to regulate large corporations, namely the Microsoft Corporation? If so, then to what extent can the government do so? Based on our research, it is the government’s responsibility to remedy Microsoft’s noncompetitive behavior in order to increase fair competition. The Microsoft vs. the Government trial has many possible outcomes, which may affect a specific party. Not only does the outcome affect the
The federal government of the United States of America is in charge of regulation and supervision of citizens. When it comes to regulation of the economy, the government can either intervene or let the market fluctuate based upon natural forces. I believe that the government should use a laisse-faire method in the economy. One of the greatest aspects of an open market is the use of competition. This causes an overall lowering of prices and a rapid increase of advances in every sector of the market

It is important that the government have some type of regulation on intermodal transportation, because without regulations things tend to spiral out of control.

caused death, disease, and environmental destruction" (front flap) Today, coal provides for more than 55% of the electricity generated in the U.S. (Cullen, Robert Vol.272) Coal miners have had one of the most dangerous jobs in history before government regulation. Many miners had to work underground for 10 + hours a day and 6 days a week(Cobb, James "Coal") The number of deaths per year is the equivalent of a Titanic going down in the nation's coal fields each year (Turkington, Carol) According to
universities, price competition, and also government regulation. However, in order to combat these rising prices, Vedder came up with a number of solutions that could be used to control the cost of tuition, despite some problems with these ideas, his idea of using a voucher system is the best solution that he presents.

"Selling drugs to children would continue to be criminal, and other evasions of government regulation of a legal market would continue to be prosecuted; but by and large the drug connection that now accounts for all of the criminal-justice costs noted above would be severed" (Lindsmith Center). Second, many illicit-drug users commit crimes
the new deal. President Herbert Hoover was the total opposite of F.D.R. he believed in laissez-faire which is the thought that the government does not interfere with its people and economy. This might have been ok, but when the country started to slip in to a depression Hoover took no action he believed that it would make the country week and dependent on the government. This proved to be a fatal decision for the American economy. F.D.R. had great leadership qualities he passed many forms in congress

observe the structure of the Thai society. Men occupy the dominant position in all aspects of life from top to bottom of the Thai social structure. The King rules the society, and men enforce all the laws and government regulations (we see no women participating in the King’s council or in any government office). In addition to that, the ritual and custom behavior point to the humiliating position of women in Thai culture. According to Prince Chulalongkorn, men never apologize to women. The body language

Drugs will even become safer for those who are willing to use them. Government regulations on drug quality will make the drugs more pure, and potent, taking the harmful additives that some drug makers put in. Like cigarettes, warnings would probably be posted on drug packages stating “The use of crack may be harmful to your health
technical innovation which might otherwise not been done. However, it can only be regarded as successful provided there is a "countervailing power" against potential abuse in the form of trade unions, supplier and consumer organizations and government regulation. Many have since argued the formula for East Asian success later in the century was based precisely on this combination of oligopolistic power and "countervailing" institutions. It was his smallish 1958 book, The Affluent Society, that earned
