POL SOC 360 SP15 Stats Everyday Life
This document contains instructions for an assignment in a POL/SOC 360-01 class in Spring 2015. Students are asked to partner with a classmate in a different major, brainstorm areas where statistics are used, discuss what types of statistics may be used in each area and why it's important to use accurate figures. They are then asked to form groups of 3-4 people including both political science and sociology majors to answer sample numerical questions and discuss potential issues with numerical data reporting.
Depression
An estimated 17.5 million Americans suffer from some form of depression, with 9.2 million having major or clinical depression. Two-thirds of depressed individuals do not seek treatment, though 80% of those who do receive treatment see significant improvement. The economic cost of depression is $30.4 billion annually, and by 2020 the WHO estimates it will be the second leading cause of disability worldwide due to lost healthy years.

While most treatment options are effective, only one-third of depressed individuals seek treatment. Depression costs the US economy $30.4 billion annually and has significant human costs as well, with women experiencing depression at about twice the rate of men. By 2020, the WHO predicts depression will be the second leading cause of disability worldwide.

1) The US healthcare system is costly and inefficient compared to other developed nations, with many Americans uninsured or underinsured and poorer health outcomes.
2) A single-payer healthcare system could reduce administrative waste and ensure universal access to healthcare, as seen in other countries, while preserving choice of doctors.
3) Common arguments against single-payer reform such as costs, quality of care, and impact on businesses are unfounded and contradicted by evidence from successful systems in other nations.

The United States spends more on healthcare than any other country but has poor health outcomes. Money influences the healthcare system in several ways. The system is fragmented with different providers and payers not sharing information, leading to duplicate tests and costs. A fee-for-service payment model incentivizes providers to see more patients and perform more procedures to increase payments. Lobbying by the pharmaceutical and insurance industries shapes healthcare policies and regulations in ways that prioritize profits over public health. Transforming how care is delivered, such as emphasizing prevention and plant-based diets, could reduce costs and improve health.

Many Americans lack health insurance, with numbers increasing in recent years. Those most at risk include the unemployed, low-income families, ethnic/racial minorities, children, older adults, and those with mental illness. While costs continue rising, Medicare benefits have decreased and prescription drug costs have increased. The document argues that re-electing Senator Patty Murray is important as she supports increasing access to healthcare, while her opponent Dino Rossi opposes recent healthcare reforms aimed at expanding coverage.

AUGUST 17, 2009
We Don't Spend Enough on Health Care
By Craig S. Karpel
Americans are being urged to worry about the nation spending 17% of its gross domestic
product each year on health care—a higher percentage than any other country. Addressing the
American Medical Association in June, Barack Obama said, “Make no mistake: The cost of our
health care is a threat to our economy.” But the president is mistaken. Japan spends 8% of its
GDP on health care—the same as Zimbabwe. South Korea and Haiti both spend 6%. Monaco
spends 5%, which is what Afghanistan spends. Do all of these countries have economies that
are less “threatened” than that of the U.S.?
No. So there must be other factors that affect the health of a nation's economy.
Mr. Obama has said that "the cost of health care has weighed down our economy." No one
thinks the 20% of our GDP that's attributable to manufacturing is weighing down the economy,
because it's intuitively clear that one person's expenditure on widgets is another person's
income. But the same is true of the health-care industry. The $2.4 trillion Americans spend each
year for health care doesn't go up in smoke. It's paid to other Americans.
The basic material needs of human beings are food, clothing and shelter. The desire for food
and clothing drove hunter-gatherer economies and, subsequently, agricultural economies, for
millennia. The Industrial Revolution was driven by the desire for clothing. Thus Richard
Arkwright's water frame, James Hargreaves's spinning jenny, Samuel Crompton's spinning
mule, Eli Whitney's cotton gin and Elias Howe's sewing machine.
Though it hasn't been widely realized, the desire for shelter was a major driver of the U.S.
economy during the second half of the 20th century and the first several years of the 21st.
About one-third of the new jobs created during the latter period were directly or indirectly related
to housing, as the stupendous ripple effect of the bursting housing bubble should make painfully
obvious.
Once these material needs are ...
Doctors' Note on Medicare
This document is a letter from Republican physicians in Congress providing 10 facts about the challenges facing the Medicare program. It summarizes that Medicare costs have grown unsustainably, the program will face insolvency in the near future, and reforms are needed to strengthen and protect Medicare for current and future seniors. The letter aims to further an informed discussion about adopting bipartisan solutions to these issues.
Dent | 5 Global Trends Report
We are living through transformational times. When people check their news updates and social media feed, it feels like the world is just filled with strangeness. Key events like the war in Syria, the refugee crisis, the Brexit vote and the United States presidential election have revealed the unrest and division in societies to be almost like a tug-of-war between two extremes.
On the one hand, there are those who feel everything’s gone so backward, the road to the future has become a lot more uncertain. Yet on the other hand, living in the same world and through the same events, there are those whose opinions reveal a sense of relief that things are going back to how they believe things should be.
It’s easy to observe what’s been going on and conclude that it’s all a decisive trend that’s determining where we go from here. The truth is, however, it’s all just noise caused by the real trends, and not the underlying forces themselves. The real trends have been building up for the last decade, and they have brought us to this point today.
This report outlines the five big trends that will cause disruption through to the 2020s.
Trend #1 - BABY BOOMERS TURNING 70
Trend #2 - THE MILLENNIAL MINDSET SHIFT
Trend #3 - TECHNOLOGY UNEMPLOYMENT
Trend #4 - AUSTERITY POLICY
Trend #5 - ENTREPRENEURS SOLVING MEANINGFUL PROBLEMS
Your job as a business leader is to tune out of the noise and truly understand the trends behind them. If you allow yourself to get swept into the negativity of all the things happening around the world, it distracts you from the fact that we do live in a time of unlimited, global opportunities. But if you understand the real trends, you can better navigate the way for your business for the next decade, and make the absolute most of the times that we are in.
AGLA Plan For Life
The document summarizes an insurance plan called A Plan for Life from American General Life and Accident Insurance Company. It discusses the importance of planning for future financial security and having insurance to protect against dying too soon, living too long, and ensuring needs are met at death. Specific needs are outlined like final expenses, mortgage, rent, education costs, and more. Steps to developing a financial plan are provided.
David Lipscomb 6.23.09
Rep. Jim Cooper speaks at David Lipscomb University on health care reform. He argues that rationing is unnecessary as the US wastes $700 billion annually on unnecessary health spending. Reform is needed to reduce this waste without denying needed care. However, opponents will claim reform is rationing to protect the profitable status quo. Cooper presents evidence from studies showing reform can be achieved through slowing spending growth, not reducing current levels. The key is finding the right balance between ensuring access to care and addressing the unsustainable growth in health costs that threatens the country's fiscal stability.
Restaurants Evaluation Essay
The document discusses the steps involved in requesting writing assistance from HelpWriting.net. It outlines 5 steps: 1) Create an account with valid email and password. 2) Complete a 10-minute order form providing instructions, sources, and deadline. 3) Review bids from writers and choose one based on qualifications. 4) Review the completed paper and authorize payment if satisfied. 5) Request revisions to ensure satisfaction, with a refund offered for plagiarized work.
