Chapter 10: Allocation of Resources
The American Recession of 2007–2009 has caused a new group
of people to become "poor." Many people lost jobs, homes, and
health care, and some people lost everything they had saved in a
lifetime on Wall Street. These people are being called the "new
poor." In contrast, there were babies born to a welfare mom up
to 40 years ago, who were raised on welfare, then had children
of their own they raised on welfare, and now have grandchildren
growing up on welfare. This group of people have always
received a helping hand from the government for health care
(Medicaid) and living arrangements (low-income housing or
housing assistance), and many have even received job training.
As more people request help and assistance from the
government, resources are becoming even scarcer. Who then
should be allocated the limited resources? Should those who
still have jobs be expected to carry the burden of those who
never worked? Should those who can afford to pay get medical
preference over those who cannot pay? Should funds be
channeled to the young and taken away from the elderly?
Critically think about some of these issues, others that are
presented in the book, or issues that are affecting your
community. Write a 2–3 page essay that identifies an issue or
several issues. Use Liberty’s online library to search for articles
to use as your sources of reference.
Your paper must be 2–3 pages, use at least 2 peer-reviewed
sources, must be written in current APA formatting, and
incorporate a biblical worldview.
