.... workers. This 35% hike in the minimum wage paid by the business will be one of the biggest increases in California history. And, it will hit just when the state is recovering from a long recession. Approximately 2 million of California's nearly 13 million workers earn less than $5.75 per hour. Most of these workers would be directly affected by this increase. Roughly one-forth of those earning less than the proposed $5.75 minimum wage are teenagers, while the remaining three-fourths are adults age 20 and over.

.... the new reserve requirement. The tool known as open market operations influences money and credit operations by buying and selling of government securities on the open market.

.... they tend move toward higher yielding accounts, also further increasing the rate.

.... human population tends to double. So if world population is represented by 1, then after each 25 years it would be 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and so on, provided there were no limits on such "natural" rates of population increase. Food. To learn how fast people might produce food, Malthus examined agriculture in several countries, and made a rough estimate: all food produced could increase each 25 years by at most the prior 25 years' increase. So if food production is represented by 1, then after each 25 years it would be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and so on. In other words, food could only increase arithmetically, whereas the population if .....

.... Our schools teach American students to be good at memorization. To be able to spit out recorded information. "You do have the knowledge but you are basically robots with skin; machines, tape recorders that teachers use to record their information. At the end of a chapter, they rewind you and press the 'play' button to see if you can repeat everything they said."1 Also, our schools are not stressing the importance of math and science. Because of this fact, foreign born workers such as engineers are taking over the jobs American workers could have. Our students need to be truly smart because memorized skills can only go so far. Gr .....

.... 95% of the total possible credit. A grade of 95 in most cases is equal to the letter grade of an A. When a student receives a number grade of 70 then they have gotten credit for 70% of the work. This 70% works out to a C, which is customarily known as satisfactory. This satisfactory grade of a 70 means that on a test the student has basically absorbed only 70% of what should have been. This 70% means that a full 30% of what should have been learned has not been. By calling this 70% satisfactory, it is basically saying that it is alright for the student to not learn everything that is taught in the class. By giving stu .....

.... economy which for sure would create new jobs in Europe. The German population, however, is scared that a United Europe would create new jobs only in low wage countries like e.g. Portugal. Many think that a European market with no barriers would would even cause “job hollowing out” of Germany. Moreover the German population likes the strength of the D-Mark and is worried that a single European currency would be weaker. As a result of this many Germans change their money into Swiss Francs. So far Switzerland has done quite well by not taking place in all events available. One reason why they are better off is that .....

.... Casino Niagara had revenues of approximately 650.0 million3. Of those amounts the government will take two to four percent4 for funding programs. This funding goes towards such areas as agriculture, environment, fisheries, and aquaculture. If the funding was not from these casinos where would it come from, and would these mean the each of these areas would also get funding cuts like other sectors? Since the money is coming from casinos, it is saving the average tax-payer money also. In the event that the funding from casinos was stopped then taxes would have to be raised to keep money in the listed areas or the areas would re .....
