The Trolley Problem is set up in two parts. The first part of this problem puts the reader in a passive position to choose between shoving a large person onto the track causing one person to die to save the five other people and refraining and doing nothing would allow the five to die and the one person to live.

There is no question litter is as big problem not only on campus but around the world. Most litter found on campus is fast food wrappers and bags‚ and drink containers. A few reasons people give for why there is litter are: laziness‚ lack of motivation to wait till they can get to a trashcan to throw trash away‚ and lack of available trashcans in parking lots and heavily trafficked areas.

might not be so good as everyone thinks. Around the world people are laughing at us. We need to fix America’s problems. We have problems like the rich being more powerful and more considered than the poor‚ we spend our money unwisely‚ and we don’t have the respect from citizens or other continents.

“Some problems are so complex that you have to be highly intelligent and well informed just to be undecided about them.” --Laurence J.

objective may not always be the priority for managers as they may rather prefer to maximize their own wealth or further other personal interests of theirs. This conflict of interest between the two is an example of the principal agent problem. The principal agent problem occurs due to two reasons.

This gives
