GOOD and EVIL

Tales of ECONOMICS in Transit

By: Annette Meyer

The economy of the United States has been in turmoil for longer than most can remember. It seems like everyone is talking about “The Great Recession” or a “jobless recovery,” all the while pointing their fingers across the aisle, attempting to place blame on the other side. Is the increase in partisan politics the result of increased economy volatility or is it the other way around? What other factors contributed to our current situation and how do we fix a system that is obviously broken? Annette E. Meyer breaks the economy down to its basic elements and discusses trends and projections in four key areas: higher education, healthcare, government, and consumer prices. She presents a thorough analysis of every major factor in economics over the past decades and more, and she backs everything up with real numbers and a review of the opinions of top economists and political thinkers. This is more than a crash course in economics—it is a roadmap to help you understand an increasingly complicated world.

Value Added / 14 National Labor Forces

By: Annette E. Meyer

An individual cannot be replaced by a clone, a robot, or other intelligent automaton. As a human resource contributing to national output, the multi-dimensional nature of the contributions is not evident in the accounting estimates. Value Added / 14 National Labor Forces examines the interactions of persons as workers within their national boundaries. The amount and quality of their performance depends on both personal factors-such as health and wage income-and social aspects-such as labor market conditions and available retirement plans.The complex logistics of production within and across nations emphasizes the prominence of external circumstances in decision-making. Multinational corporations, off shoring, new consumer markets, natural resources, food supply, sanitation facilities, internet communications, and growth possibilities are among the tactical strategies to be resolved. In the end, the sum of value added of the individuals at work in each nation is inevitably linked to the global and national government context in which the actual production and financial decisions take place.

Evolution of United States Budgeting

By: Annette Meyer

As a fiscal document recording the spending, taxing, and borrowing policies for the coming year, the U.S. budget continues to be a model for other nations. This book focuses on the various phases of budget making, its historical background in fiscal and monetary terms, and special budgetary issues, including the budget balance, credit activities of Government-Sponsored Enterprises, the future health of Social Security, and the budget's relationship to the financial and public goods aspects of the international environment. Covering major changes in the structure and process of budgeting since 1989, when the book was first published, this volume covers new ground in many aspects of fiscal and financial policy, domestically and internationally. Each section of the book is devoted to a different aspect of U.S. budgeting, ranging from the foundations of the present policies, to the annual budget cycle, to the actual methods of accomplishment, and the containment of those policies in the global framework. One section focuses on high visibility issues-Social Security, surpluses, federal debt, and entitlement programs. The book provides a valuable overview for those wishing to understand the budget process and its foundations while aspiring to help improve that process.

Pioneer Cemeteries

Sculpture Gardens of the Old West

By: Annette Stott

As pioneers attempted to settle and civilize the ?Wild West,? cemeteries became important cultural centers. Filled with carved wooden headboards, inscribed local stones, and Italian marble statues, cemeteries functioned as symbols of stability and progress toward a European-inspired vision of Manifest Destiny. As repositories of art and history, these pioneer cemeteries tell the story of communities and visual culture emerging together within the developing landscape of the Old West. Annette Stott traces this story through Rocky Mountain towns on the western frontier, from the unkempt ?boot hills? of the early mining camps and cattle settlements to the more refined ?fair mounts.? She shows how people from Asia, Europe, and the Americas contributed to the visual character of the mountain cemeteries, and how the sepulchral garden functioned as an open-air gallery of public sculpture, at once a site for relaxation, learning, and social ritual. Here, widespread participation in a variety of ceremonies brought mountain communities together with a frequency almost unimaginable today. Illustrated with eighty-three striking photographs, this book shows how the pioneer cemetery emerged as a site of public sculpture and cultural transmission in which each carved or molded monument played dual (and sometimes conflicting) public and private roles, recording the community?s history and values while memorializing individuals and events.
