Explain what monetary policies will likely be used and how they will impact economic growth.

When you consider the deserted malls, abandoned offices, exceptionally high unemployment, thousands of people dying and the millions of lives on hold in this country, surely you will agree these are extraordinary times that historians will write about. Economic policy makers and political leaders are struggling to come up with a plan to stabilize the economy. As a result, Congress has recently passed the Coronavirus Relief Act — which is probably only the first phase of a multi-part economic assistance package. For your final project in this class, I think it is only appropriate we focus on the economics of today. Therefore, I want you to meaningfully reflect on our current circumstances as a result of the virus and the effect it is having on our economy. Then, I want you to research the Coronavirus Relief Act and other economic stimulus efforts being considered by the government. After collecting and reviewing this information, discuss it with a family member, friend and/or colleague. From your research, reflection and discussions, prepare a well written paper that describes what you learned, current circumstances, how others feel and the anticipated effects of the pandemic on the economy. Also, and importantly, include information about the components of the stimulus package; why the government is intervening with such stimulus measures; how the stimulus monies will be used to increase consumption and aggregate demand (be specific); and, describe the expected outcomes of the package. Further, the government plans to use monetary policies through the Federal Reserve System to stimulate the economy. Explain what monetary policies will likely be used and how they will impact economic growth.

What is an ethical belief that you feel strongly about, but you know it is not shared by some people of other cultures?

To ensure that your initial post starts its own unique thread, do not reply to this post. Instead, please click the “Reply” link above this post.

Please read the general discussion requirements above, as well as the announcements explaining the discussion requirements and answering the most frequently asked questions. If you are still unsure about how to proceed with the discussion, please reply to one of those announcements or contact your instructor.

After reading Chapter 2 of the textbook, reflect on the following:

What is an ethical belief that you feel strongly about, but you know it is not shared by some people of other cultures? This can be a belief that certain things are right or good, or that certain things are wrong or bad. (Be sure to differentiate between cultures and societies – a society like that of the U.S. contains many different cultures.)

Reflect on yourself:
What are the reasons for your belief? Try to explain as succinctly as possible the main reason(s) why you have the belief that this is right/wrong or good/bad.

Do you consider this to be something you were merely conditioned to believe, or do you think these beliefs represent your own independent thought and reflection? Explain.

2. Reflect on the other:

If you were to try to explain and defend the contrary beliefs of some from another culture, how would you do that? (I.e., do your best to speak from their point of view about why they hold certain beliefs on this issue.)

If you had to identify an assumption, background conviction, or way of thinking that best explains why someone from another culture would have a different belief, what would that be?

3. Engage with the text:

Considering what the textbook says about moral relativism, would you consider your belief to be objective or relative? That is, do you think your belief is true (or at least stronger) in comparison to the other cultures, or do you think it’s merely relative to your own culture?

If you think it’s true (or stronger), explain why. If you think it’s merely relative, choose one of the objections to relativism raised in the text, briefly explain it, and defend your position against that objection.

4. Discuss with your peers:

Read the posts of your peers and discuss their responses to these questions. Focus especially on those who disagree with what you have said, and engage in friendly dialogue about the disagreements you have with them.

Remember that how you choose to address these questions is up to you; there’s no required procedure (for instance, you don’t have to answer each in a separate post or anything like that). The main thing is to get thinking and talking about these questions, and I look forward to reading your responses.
