This document discusses two tables of data on national health expenditures in the United States from 1970 to 2009. Table 1 shows changes in sources of expenditures over time, with out-of-pocket costs decreasing and payments by third-party payers like insurance increasing. Table 2 breaks down public program payments, putting state and local officials in an difficult position as Medicaid and other healthcare programs rise faster than other budget items like education. The document asks the reader to comment on changes observed in the tables.

Growing Healthcare Costsandthe Federal Debt
The document discusses growing healthcare costs and the federal debt. It notes that social security, Medicare and Medicaid currently make up 42% of the federal budget and are projected to continue increasing significantly. If current policies continue, large sustained deficits of over $14 trillion are projected by 2019. Rising healthcare costs that outpace economic growth are a major driver of these deficits and threaten long-term economic stability and growth. Healthcare reform is needed to control costs and improve the sustainability of federal spending.

The director testified about trends in federal tax revenues and rates. Key points include:
- Revenues have averaged 18% of GDP over the past 40 years, ranging from 15-21%. Individual income and payroll taxes make up most revenues.
- Marginal tax rates have declined since the 1950s-1980s but remain higher for higher incomes. Tax expenditures subsidize activities like homeownership and health insurance.
- Taxes are progressive on average but top earners now earn over half of income and pay nearly 70% of taxes, up from 1979 levels. Lower tax rates can boost work and saving but also increase deficits long-term.
Our National Fiscal Challenge
The document discusses the growing fiscal challenges facing the United States government at the federal, state, and local levels. It notes that mandatory spending programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are taking up an increasing share of the federal budget. It also highlights that total government debt in the US is higher than some financially troubled European countries. The document concludes by outlining steps that could be taken to address these fiscal issues, including entitlement and tax reforms, reducing healthcare costs, and reforming state and local pension systems.

7 Economic Policy Challenging Incrementalism
Incremental and Nonincremental Policymaking
Traditionally, fiscal and monetary policies were made incrementally; that is, decision makers concentrated their attention on modest changes—increases or decreases—in existing taxing, spending, and deficit levels, as well as the money supply and interest rates. Incrementalism was especially pervasive in annual federal budget making. The president and Congress did not reconsider the value of all existing programs each year, or pay much attention to previously established expenditure levels. Rather last year’s expenditures were considered as a base of spending for each program, attractive consideration of the budget proposals focused on new items or increases over last year’s base.
But crises often force policymakers to abandon incrementalism and reach out in non-incremental directions. In economic policy, the president and Congress and the Fed are pressured to “do something” in the face of a perceived economic crisis, even if there is little consensus on what should be done, or even whether there is anything the federal government can do to resolve the crisis. As we shall see later in this chapter, the recession that began in 2008 caused policymakers to search for new policies and make dramatic changes in spending and deficit levels and to undertake unprecedented measures to prevent the collapse of financial markets and avoid a deep recession.
Fiscal and Monetary Policy
Economic policy is exercised primarily through the federal government’s fiscal policies—decisions about taxing, spending, and deficit levels—and its monetary policies—decisions about the money supply and interest rates.
Fiscal policy is made in the annual preparation of the federal budget by the president and the Office of Management and Budget, and subsequently considered by Congress in its annual appropriations bills and revisions of the tax laws. These decisions determine overall federal spending levels, as well as spending priorities among federal programs. Together with tax policy decisions (see Chapter 8), these spending decisions determine the size of the federal government’s annual deficits or surpluses.
Monetary policy is the principal responsibility of the powerful and independent Federal Reserve Board—“the Fed”—which can expand or contract the money supply through its oversight of the nation’s banking system (see “The Fed at Work” later in this chapter). Congress established the Federal Reserve System and its governing Board in 1913 and Congress could, if it wished, reduce its power or even abolish the Fed altogether. But no serious effort has ever been undertaken to do so.
Economic Theories As Policy Guides
The goals of economic policy are widely shared: growth in economic output and standards of living, full and productive employment of the nation’s work force, and stable prices with low inflation. But a variety of economic theories compete for preeminence as ways of achiev.
Measurement and Analysis of the Stability of Local Fiscal Revenue
The stability of fiscal revenue, so called the fluctuation of fiscal revenue, refers to the fluctuation degree of local government's actual fiscal revenue deviating from the expected fiscal revenue. As the main way of funds for local governments to perform public service functions, fiscal revenue is an important starting point for local governments to regulate and participate in economic activities. The drastic fluctuation of fiscal revenue will interfere with the government's economic functions, reduce the quantity and quality of public services, and produce inefficient government activities. The economic and social activities carried out by governments at all levels in practice are numerous and complicated, which can be classified according to different purposes and perspectives. However, no matter which classification method is adopted, stable financial revenue is the core guarantee of government economic activities, which is in the position of "leading the development and affecting the whole body". Based on the combination variance method of white (1983), this paper constructs the stability index of local fiscal revenue, and measures the stability of fiscal revenue of all provinces in China, and interprets and analyzes the measurement results through the theoretical method of economics. It is found that there are significant regional differences in the fluctuation of local fiscal revenue in China. By comparing the changes of fiscal revenue fluctuation index in 2000, 2009 and 2018, the fluctuation index of fiscal revenue shows obvious regional differences. The fluctuation degree of the economically developed eastern coastal area is lower than that of the underdeveloped central and Western Region, and the southern region with lower economic activity is significantly lower than that of the north. On the other hand, the external shocks such as "replacing business tax with value-added tax" and financial crisis also have a positive impact on local tax fluctuations. Through the analysis of the experimental results, it is found that good economic foundation, capital accumulation, industrial structure and geographical location have a great impact on financial stability. Therefore, the government should pay attention to the gap between the stability of fiscal revenue in different regions, actively improve the economic foundation of the poor stability of the central and western regions, formulate differentiated economic and financial policies, vigorously develop the secondary and tertiary industries, and improve the stability of fiscal revenue to cope with regional economic risks and improve the administrative efficiency of the government.
The U.S. DeficitDebt Problem A Longer-Run PerspectiveD.docx
The U.S. Deficit/Debt Problem:
A Longer-Run Perspective
Daniel L. Thornton
The U.S. national debt now exceeds 100 percent of gross domestic product. Given that a significant
amount of this debt is the result of governmental efforts to mitigate the effects of the financial crisis, the
recession, and the anemic recovery, it is tempting to think that the debt problem is a recent phenomenon.
This article shows that the United States was on a collision course with a major debt problem for nearly
four decades before the financial crisis. In particular, the debt problem began around 1970 when the
government decided to significantly increase spending without a corresponding increase in revenue. The
analysis suggests that the debt problem cannot be permanently resolved without creating a mechanism
to prevent the government from running persistent deficits in the future. (JEL E62, H62, H63)
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Review, November/December 2012, 94(6), pp. 441-55.
T
he U.S. debt has surpassed 100 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). This debt
burden is due in part to the extremely large deficits incurred by attempts to mitigate
the effects of the financial crisis, the relatively deep and prolonged recession, and the
anemic economic recovery. Given the emphasis on the financial crisis and its aftermath, it is
important to realize the U.S. deficit/debt problem began over four decades ago. This longer-
run perspective suggests that the recognition of the seriousness of the problem and the need
for fundamental change eventually would have occurred. The recent financial crisis merely
brought the U.S. deficit/debt problem to the public’s attention sooner rather than later. The
analysis here shows that the U.S. deficit/debt problem began during the early 1970s when the
government started to increase spending significantly without a corresponding increase in tax
revenue. This article also analyzes various aspects of government revenues and expenditures
to better understand the different elements of the debate on preventing the U.S. deficit/debt
problem from becoming the U.S. deficit/debt crisis.1

CBO- ECONOMIC 2020 -230
This document provides a summary of the Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) economic projections from 2020 to 2030. It notes that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused widespread economic disruption. The CBO projects a rapid economic recovery in the second half of 2020 and 2021, but unemployment will remain above pre-pandemic levels through 2030. GDP will recover to its pre-pandemic level by 2022 and continue growing at a moderate pace similar to the past decade. Inflation will be stable around 2% after 2024. Interest rates will also remain low through the decade. The projections are highly uncertain due to many factors related to the ongoing pandemic.
Cbo 2013 ltbo44521 ltbo 0
Under CBO's extended baseline projections:
- Federal debt held by the public is projected to reach 100% of GDP by 2038 as budget deficits rise steadily over the long term due to increasing spending on major health care programs and Social Security as well as rising interest costs.
- Deficits are projected to grow from around 3.5% of GDP in 2023 to over 7% of GDP by 2038, pushing debt above the historical high reached just after World War II.
- Spending is projected to outpace revenues significantly after 2023, with revenues remaining between 17-19% of GDP and spending growing from over 20% of GDP currently to over 26% by 2038.
CBO’s 2023 Long-Term Budget Projections
The document summarizes the Congressional Budget Office's methodologies for long-term budget, economic, and health spending projections. It discusses how CBO projects factors like potential GDP growth, federal spending on programs like Medicare and Social Security, and the rising federal debt. CBO's projections estimate the budget and economic impacts of demographic and cost trends over the next 30 years if current laws generally remain unchanged. However, the projections are highly uncertain, especially in later years.
CCIC - Statistical Analysis of Official Development Assistance
This document analyzes trends in official development assistance (ODA) provided by countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). It finds that while total ODA has generally increased over time in current prices, the rate of increase has not kept pace with economic growth. As a percentage of gross national income, ODA levels have fluctuated and remain well below the UN target of 0.7%. The analysis also examines trends in Canadian ODA and budget cuts that have decreased Canada's ODA in recent years.
Today’s Economic Landscape and What’s on the Other Side February 2010
The document provides an overview of the current economic landscape and recovery following the recent recession. It summarizes key economic indicators such as GDP, industrial production, unemployment, housing and financial markets. It outlines the government's economic response through fiscal stimulus and monetary policy. It also discusses future opportunities for economic growth and concludes that while recovery is underway, the US economy still faces pressures from high unemployment, consumer and government debt that will likely result in slower long-term growth compared to emerging economies such as China.

Preface
Social Security is the federal government’s largest single program, and as the
U.S. population grows older in the coming decades, its cost is projected to increase more
rapidly than its revenues. As a result, under current law, resources dedicated to the program
will become insufficient to pay full benefits in 2039, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO)
projects. Long-run sustainability for the program could be attained through various
combinations of raising taxes and cutting benefits; such changes would also affect the
Social Security taxes paid and the benefits received by various groups of people. This CBO
study examines a variety of approaches to changing Social Security, updating an earlier work,
Menu of Social Security Options, which CBO published in May 2005. In keeping with CBO’s
mandate to provide objective, impartial analysis, the current study makes no
recommendations.
The study was written by Noah Meyerson, Charles Pineles-Mark, and Michael Simpson of
CBO’s Health and Human Resources Division, under the direction of Joyce Manchester and
Bruce Vavrichek. Research assistance was provided by Philip Armour, Sarah Axeen, and

Topic: should the U.S Tax Social Security income ceilings for contributions be raised?
If the U.S Tax Social Security income ceiling or the contribution base is increased, this means that there will be an increase in the maximum social security tax to be collected from an individual worker. Thus, the Social Security changes determine the contribution base based on the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners. The contribution base thus determines the cost of living adjustment applied to the recipients. If there is no increase in the contribution base, then the consumer price index for urban wage earners remains the same as well as the cost of living. In U.S., the social security income benefits increases automatically in every year as long as the same (increase) is attributed in the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, from the third quarter of the previous year to the corresponding period of the present year (Internal Revenue Service, 2010). However, this was not the case in the year 2010 because there was no change in the Consumer Price Index for the Urban Wage Earners. This means that the individual’s social benefits remain the same. This is because the social security Act prohibits an increase in the contribution base (Social Security’s Maximum Taxable Earnings). From the past, the contribution base increase was justified by the desire to achieve an improved system of financing as well as maintain meaningful benefits for the higher and middle earners.
The advantage of raising the contribution base is that the social security benefits will be put on a more stable footage. This means that more people will benefit from the program especially the future generation. However, requiring high income generators to contribute more on the benefits may be received with mixed reactions with some viewing the program as less equitable. Other reason to increase the contribution base beyond the wage indexed levels is to reflect the growing earning inequalities and help restore the financial balance (Livingston, 2008). However, according to the statistics, 53 percent of the American people would prefer to raise the contribution base in order to ensure social security’s solvency. This will require raising the income tax cap from the current limit on social security contribution from 110,000 dollars (the current limit) to more than 250,000 dollars (the proposed limit).
Since the amendments were enacted in the year 1977, the contribution base has risen automatically with an increase in average wages. The current proposal to further increase the contribution base tend to emphasis the rationa.
Making Choices About Federal Spending and Taxes
The Congressional Budget Office director presented on the current outlook for the federal budget and criteria for evaluating policy changes. Under current law, deficits will remain high and debt will exceed historical averages. Fundamental choices are needed as federal health and retirement programs grow substantially due to an aging population. To adequately reduce deficits, large cuts would be needed to spending programs, substantial tax increases, or a combination. Any policy changes involve economic and distributional tradeoffs to consider.
New institutions, updates - Mark Hadley, CBO, United States
The Congressional Budget Office aims to promote transparency through several key methods:
1) Testifying before Congress, publishing cost estimates and reports, and answering Congressional questions.
2) Explaining its analytical methods through general reports, technical papers, and computer code.
3) Releasing underlying data and analyzing the accuracy of its previous estimates.
4) Comparing its current estimates to prior CBO estimates and those of other organizations.

CompetencyAnalyze ethical and legal dilemmas that healthcare.docx
Competency
Analyze ethical and legal dilemmas that healthcare workers may encounter in the medical field.
Instructions
You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Midwest. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed.
An important aspect of the provider/patient relationship pertains to open communication and trust. Patients want to know that their doctors and the support staff associated with their care understand their wishes and will abide by them. Ideally, these conversations happen well before an emergency or procedure takes place; however, often times this information is missing from a patient's file. As part of Three Mountains' initiative to build trust with their patients, an increased emphasis has been placed on obtaining living wills from the patient as part of the intake process to ensure that the healthcare team has written directives of the patient's wishes in case of incapacitation. You will be creating a living will for a patient and provide educational information as to why the patient should fill it out during the admission process before a procedure.
Introduction:
Explain the definition of a living will and its key components. This section will provide an educational overview of the document for the patient.
Living Will Template:
Create a living will that can serve as a template to the patients. This should cover the basic treatment issues such as resuscitation, feeding tubes, ventilation, organ and tissue donations, etc. Provide instructions in the template that can be easily altered, depending on each patient's wishes.
Summary:
In this section, you will discuss the importance of this document and encourage patients to complete it. Address how this document ensures that a patient's wishes are known and followed by the healthcare team.

7 Economic Policy Challenging Incrementalism
Incremental and Nonincremental Policymaking
Traditionally, fiscal and monetary policies were made incrementally; that is, decision makers concentrated their attention on modest changes—increases or decreases—in existing taxing, spending, and deficit levels, as well as the money supply and interest rates. Incrementalism was especially pervasive in annual federal budget making. The president and Congress did not reconsider the value of all existing programs each year, or pay much attention to previously established expenditure levels. Rather last year’s expenditures were considered as a base of spending for each program, attractive consideration of the budget proposals focused on new items or increases over last year’s base.
But crises often force policymakers to abandon incrementalism and reach out in non-incremental directions. In economic policy, the president and Congress and the Fed are pressured to “do something” in the face of a perceived economic crisis, even if there is little consensus on what should be done, or even whether there is anything the federal government can do to resolve the crisis. As we shall see later in this chapter, the recession that began in 2008 caused policymakers to search for new policies and make dramatic changes in spending and deficit levels and to undertake unprecedented measures to prevent the collapse of financial markets and avoid a deep recession.
Fiscal and Monetary Policy
Economic policy is exercised primarily through the federal government’s fiscal policies—decisions about taxing, spending, and deficit levels—and its monetary policies—decisions about the money supply and interest rates.
Fiscal policy is made in the annual preparation of the federal budget by the president and the Office of Management and Budget, and subsequently considered by Congress in its annual appropriations bills and revisions of the tax laws. These decisions determine overall federal spending levels, as well as spending priorities among federal programs. Together with tax policy decisions (see Chapter 8), these spending decisions determine the size of the federal government’s annual deficits or surpluses.
Monetary policy is the principal responsibility of the powerful and independent Federal Reserve Board—“the Fed”—which can expand or contract the money supply through its oversight of the nation’s banking system (see “The Fed at Work” later in this chapter). Congress established the Federal Reserve System and its governing Board in 1913 and Congress could, if it wished, reduce its power or even abolish the Fed altogether. But no serious effort has ever been undertaken to do so.
Economic Theories As Policy Guides
The goals of economic policy are widely shared: growth in economic output and standards of living, full and productive employment of the nation’s work force, and stable prices with low inflation. But a variety of economic theories compete for preeminence as ways of achiev.
Measurement and Analysis of the Stability of Local Fiscal Revenue
The stability of fiscal revenue, so called the fluctuation of fiscal revenue, refers to the fluctuation degree of local government's actual fiscal revenue deviating from the expected fiscal revenue. As the main way of funds for local governments to perform public service functions, fiscal revenue is an important starting point for local governments to regulate and participate in economic activities. The drastic fluctuation of fiscal revenue will interfere with the government's economic functions, reduce the quantity and quality of public services, and produce inefficient government activities. The economic and social activities carried out by governments at all levels in practice are numerous and complicated, which can be classified according to different purposes and perspectives. However, no matter which classification method is adopted, stable financial revenue is the core guarantee of government economic activities, which is in the position of "leading the development and affecting the whole body". Based on the combination variance method of white (1983), this paper constructs the stability index of local fiscal revenue, and measures the stability of fiscal revenue of all provinces in China, and interprets and analyzes the measurement results through the theoretical method of economics. It is found that there are significant regional differences in the fluctuation of local fiscal revenue in China. By comparing the changes of fiscal revenue fluctuation index in 2000, 2009 and 2018, the fluctuation index of fiscal revenue shows obvious regional differences. The fluctuation degree of the economically developed eastern coastal area is lower than that of the underdeveloped central and Western Region, and the southern region with lower economic activity is significantly lower than that of the north. On the other hand, the external shocks such as "replacing business tax with value-added tax" and financial crisis also have a positive impact on local tax fluctuations. Through the analysis of the experimental results, it is found that good economic foundation, capital accumulation, industrial structure and geographical location have a great impact on financial stability. Therefore, the government should pay attention to the gap between the stability of fiscal revenue in different regions, actively improve the economic foundation of the poor stability of the central and western regions, formulate differentiated economic and financial policies, vigorously develop the secondary and tertiary industries, and improve the stability of fiscal revenue to cope with regional economic risks and improve the administrative efficiency of the government.
The U.S. DeficitDebt Problem A Longer-Run PerspectiveD.docx
The U.S. Deficit/Debt Problem:
A Longer-Run Perspective
Daniel L. Thornton
The U.S. national debt now exceeds 100 percent of gross domestic product. Given that a significant
amount of this debt is the result of governmental efforts to mitigate the effects of the financial crisis, the
recession, and the anemic recovery, it is tempting to think that the debt problem is a recent phenomenon.
This article shows that the United States was on a collision course with a major debt problem for nearly
four decades before the financial crisis. In particular, the debt problem began around 1970 when the
government decided to significantly increase spending without a corresponding increase in revenue. The
analysis suggests that the debt problem cannot be permanently resolved without creating a mechanism
to prevent the government from running persistent deficits in the future. (JEL E62, H62, H63)
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Review, November/December 2012, 94(6), pp. 441-55.
T
he U.S. debt has surpassed 100 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). This debt
burden is due in part to the extremely large deficits incurred by attempts to mitigate
the effects of the financial crisis, the relatively deep and prolonged recession, and the
anemic economic recovery. Given the emphasis on the financial crisis and its aftermath, it is
important to realize the U.S. deficit/debt problem began over four decades ago. This longer-
run perspective suggests that the recognition of the seriousness of the problem and the need
for fundamental change eventually would have occurred. The recent financial crisis merely
brought the U.S. deficit/debt problem to the public’s attention sooner rather than later. The
analysis here shows that the U.S. deficit/debt problem began during the early 1970s when the
government started to increase spending significantly without a corresponding increase in tax
revenue. This article also analyzes various aspects of government revenues and expenditures
to better understand the different elements of the debate on preventing the U.S. deficit/debt
problem from becoming the U.S. deficit/debt crisis.1

CBO- ECONOMIC 2020 -230
This document provides a summary of the Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) economic projections from 2020 to 2030. It notes that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused widespread economic disruption. The CBO projects a rapid economic recovery in the second half of 2020 and 2021, but unemployment will remain above pre-pandemic levels through 2030. GDP will recover to its pre-pandemic level by 2022 and continue growing at a moderate pace similar to the past decade. Inflation will be stable around 2% after 2024. Interest rates will also remain low through the decade. The projections are highly uncertain due to many factors related to the ongoing pandemic.
Cbo 2013 ltbo44521 ltbo 0
Under CBO's extended baseline projections:
- Federal debt held by the public is projected to reach 100% of GDP by 2038 as budget deficits rise steadily over the long term due to increasing spending on major health care programs and Social Security as well as rising interest costs.
- Deficits are projected to grow from around 3.5% of GDP in 2023 to over 7% of GDP by 2038, pushing debt above the historical high reached just after World War II.
- Spending is projected to outpace revenues significantly after 2023, with revenues remaining between 17-19% of GDP and spending growing from over 20% of GDP currently to over 26% by 2038.
CBO’s 2023 Long-Term Budget Projections
The document summarizes the Congressional Budget Office's methodologies for long-term budget, economic, and health spending projections. It discusses how CBO projects factors like potential GDP growth, federal spending on programs like Medicare and Social Security, and the rising federal debt. CBO's projections estimate the budget and economic impacts of demographic and cost trends over the next 30 years if current laws generally remain unchanged. However, the projections are highly uncertain, especially in later years.
CCIC - Statistical Analysis of Official Development Assistance
This document analyzes trends in official development assistance (ODA) provided by countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). It finds that while total ODA has generally increased over time in current prices, the rate of increase has not kept pace with economic growth. As a percentage of gross national income, ODA levels have fluctuated and remain well below the UN target of 0.7%. The analysis also examines trends in Canadian ODA and budget cuts that have decreased Canada's ODA in recent years.
Today’s Economic Landscape and What’s on the Other Side February 2010
The document provides an overview of the current economic landscape and recovery following the recent recession. It summarizes key economic indicators such as GDP, industrial production, unemployment, housing and financial markets. It outlines the government's economic response through fiscal stimulus and monetary policy. It also discusses future opportunities for economic growth and concludes that while recovery is underway, the US economy still faces pressures from high unemployment, consumer and government debt that will likely result in slower long-term growth compared to emerging economies such as China.

Preface
Social Security is the federal government’s largest single program, and as the
U.S. population grows older in the coming decades, its cost is projected to increase more
rapidly than its revenues. As a result, under current law, resources dedicated to the program
will become insufficient to pay full benefits in 2039, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO)
projects. Long-run sustainability for the program could be attained through various
combinations of raising taxes and cutting benefits; such changes would also affect the
Social Security taxes paid and the benefits received by various groups of people. This CBO
study examines a variety of approaches to changing Social Security, updating an earlier work,
Menu of Social Security Options, which CBO published in May 2005. In keeping with CBO’s
mandate to provide objective, impartial analysis, the current study makes no
recommendations.
The study was written by Noah Meyerson, Charles Pineles-Mark, and Michael Simpson of
CBO’s Health and Human Resources Division, under the direction of Joyce Manchester and
Bruce Vavrichek. Research assistance was provided by Philip Armour, Sarah Axeen, and
L. Daniel Muldoon. James Baumgardner, Sheila Dacey, Benjamin Page, David Rafferty,
Jonathan Schwabish, and Julie Topoleski provided helpful comments on earlier drafts.
Andrew Biggs of the American Enterprise Institute and Paul Van de Water of the Center for
Budget and Policy Priorities also provided useful comments. (The assistance of external
reviewers implies no responsibility for the final product, which rests solely with CBO.)

Topic: should the U.S Tax Social Security income ceilings for contributions be raised?
If the U.S Tax Social Security income ceiling or the contribution base is increased, this means that there will be an increase in the maximum social security tax to be collected from an individual worker. Thus, the Social Security changes determine the contribution base based on the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners. The contribution base thus determines the cost of living adjustment applied to the recipients. If there is no increase in the contribution base, then the consumer price index for urban wage earners remains the same as well as the cost of living. In U.S., the social security income benefits increases automatically in every year as long as the same (increase) is attributed in the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, from the third quarter of the previous year to the corresponding period of the present year (Internal Revenue Service, 2010). However, this was not the case in the year 2010 because there was no change in the Consumer Price Index for the Urban Wage Earners. This means that the individual’s social benefits remain the same. This is because the social security Act prohibits an increase in the contribution base (Social Security’s Maximum Taxable Earnings). From the past, the contribution base increase was justified by the desire to achieve an improved system of financing as well as maintain meaningful benefits for the higher and middle earners.
The advantage of raising the contribution base is that the social security benefits will be put on a more stable footage. This means that more people will benefit from the program especially the future generation. However, requiring high income generators to contribute more on the benefits may be received with mixed reactions with some viewing the program as less equitable. Other reason to increase the contribution base beyond the wage indexed levels is to reflect the growing earning inequalities and help restore the financial balance (Livingston, 2008). However, according to the statistics, 53 percent of the American people would prefer to raise the contribution base in order to ensure social security’s solvency. This will require raising the income tax cap from the current limit on social security contribution from 110,000 dollars (the current limit) to more than 250,000 dollars (the proposed limit).
Since the amendments were enacted in the year 1977, the contribution base has risen automatically with an increase in average wages. The current proposal to further increase the contribution base tend to emphasis the rationa.
Making Choices About Federal Spending and Taxes
The Congressional Budget Office director presented on the current outlook for the federal budget and criteria for evaluating policy changes. Under current law, deficits will remain high and debt will exceed historical averages. Fundamental choices are needed as federal health and retirement programs grow substantially due to an aging population. To adequately reduce deficits, large cuts would be needed to spending programs, substantial tax increases, or a combination. Any policy changes involve economic and distributional tradeoffs to consider.

The Congressional Budget Office aims to promote transparency through several key methods:
1) Testifying before Congress, publishing cost estimates and reports, and answering Congressional questions.
2) Explaining its analytical methods through general reports, technical papers, and computer code.
3) Releasing underlying data and analyzing the accuracy of its previous estimates.
4) Comparing its current estimates to prior CBO estimates and those of other organizations.

Instructions
You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Midwest. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed.
An important aspect of the provider/patient relationship pertains to open communication and trust. Patients want to know that their doctors and the support staff associated with their care understand their wishes and will abide by them. Ideally, these conversations happen well before an emergency or procedure takes place; however, often times this information is missing from a patient's file. As part of Three Mountains' initiative to build trust with their patients, an increased emphasis has been placed on obtaining living wills from the patient as part of the intake process to ensure that the healthcare team has written directives of the patient's wishes in case of incapacitation. You will be creating a living will for a patient and provide educational information as to why the patient should fill it out during the admission process before a procedure.
Introduction:
Explain the definition of a living will and its key components. This section will provide an educational overview of the document for the patient.
Living Will Template:
Create a living will that can serve as a template to the patients. This should cover the basic treatment issues such as resuscitation, feeding tubes, ventilation, organ and tissue donations, etc. Provide instructions in the template that can be easily altered, depending on each patient's wishes.
Summary:
In this section, you will discuss the importance of this document and encourage patients to complete it. Address how this document ensures that a patient's wishes are known and followed by the healthcare team.

Recent Developments in Lifelong Learning
Karl Steffens
Introduction
We think of our societies as ‘knowledge societies’ in which lifelong learning is
becoming increasingly important. Lifelong learning refers to the idea that people
not only learn in schools and universities, but also in non-formal and informal
ways during their lifespan.The concepts of lifelong learning and lifelong education
began to enter the discourse on educational policies in the late 1960s (Tuijnman
& Boström, 2002). However, these are related, but distinct concepts. As Lee (2014,
p. 472) notes ‘the terminological change (from lifelong education, continuing
education and adult education, to lifelong learning) reflects a conceptual departure
from the idea of organised educational provision to that of a more individualised
pursuit of learning’.
One of the first important documents on lifelong learning was the report of the
International Commission on the Development of Education to UNESCO in
1972, titled ‘Learning to be. The world of education today and tomorrow’. In his
introductory letter to the Director-General of UNESCO, the chairman of the
Commission, Edgar Faure, stated that the work of the Commission was based on
four assumptions (see Elfert pp. and Carneiro pp. in this issue). The first was
related to the idea that there was an international community which was united by
common aspirations and the second was the belief in democracy and in education
as its keystones. The third was ‘that the aim of development is the complete
fulfilment of man, in all the richness of his personality, the complexity of his forms
of expression and his various commitments — as individual, member of a family
and of a community, citizen and producer, inventor of techniques and creative
dreamer’. The last assumption was that ‘only an over-all, lifelong education can
produce the kind of complete man, the need for whom is increasing with the
continually more stringent constraints tearing the individual asunder’ (Faure,
1972, p. vi).
Following the Faure Report, the UNESCO Institute for Education, which
was founded in Germany in 1951, started to focus on lifelong learning and
subsequently became the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL, http://
uil.unesco.org/home/). It was under its leadership that a formal model of lifelong
education was developed and published in the book ‘Towards a System of Life-
long Education’ (Cropley, 1980). The concept of lifelong learning also became
manifest in the ‘Education for All’ (EFA) agenda that was launched at the World
Conference on Education for All which took place in Jomtien (Thailand) in
1990 (Inter-Agency Commission, 1990). Ten years later, at the World Education
Forum in Dakar (Senegal) in 2000, the Dakar Framework for Action was
designed ‘to enable all individuals to realize their right to learn and to fulfil their
responsibility to contribute to the development of their society’ (UNESCO,
2000, p..

Introduction
Base Salary Range
For the position of VP of Operations, the National Average Salary is $122,624. In San Francisco, the average is higher and placed at $155,946. This amount is 16% higher than the National Average (Payscale, 2016). The reason for this increase is because of experience and geography. These are the two prime factors that impact the pay scale. Another major factor is the employer. Most employers base their decision to hire an individual on the experience they bring with them. Of course, with more experience, higher pay is required. With our company cutting cost a less experienced individual would be the best fit for the position.
Standard Employee Benefit
In many cases, your employee benefits could be the turning point for a prospective employee. This benefit is a vital portion of any employee packet. These valuable benefits are used as a blanket of security in the case of any sickness, injury, unemployment, old age, or death (Gomez-Mejia, Balkin & Cardy, 2015, p. 362). There is a significant difference between incentives and benefits: benefits are financial and nonfinancial compensations that are indirect to the employee. To have a competitive strategy Blossoms Up! must align their profits with the compensation package that has been already put in place. This action will help provide flexibility to the amount and the benefits available (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015).
There are also some benefits that most companies are legally obligated to provide. Three benefits are required regardless of the number of employees that the company has. These interests involve social security, workers compensation, and unemployment insurance (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). Other laws must be adhered to when dealing with a certain number of individuals. When a company has 50 or more employee they must have the Family and Medical Leave Act in place and since its induction in 2015 the Affordable Care Act for Health Insurance for companies with 20 or more employees. For the health insurance to be considered standard medical, vision and dental plans must be made available to the business. These programs that must be regarded as being under the Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) or a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015).
There are some voluntary benefits that we can include. We are already looking into adding a pension package using the Defined Contribution Plan as well as the 401(K) plan (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). Life insurance is another excellent benefit that could be added to the package as well as short-term and long-term disability insurance. Adding Vacation and PTO, and Holiday pay is .

The document discusses the importance of physical security for computer and network security. It notes that physical access negates all other security measures, as an attacker can directly access systems if they have physical proximity. It outlines several ways an attacker could exploit physical access, such as using bootable media like LiveCDs to access tools and directly image hard drives. The document emphasizes that physical security is foundational and must be carefully designed and implemented to protect against unauthorized access to systems and data.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
