The Impact of Large Corporations and Legislation

According to a report by the Council of Economic Ad-visors issued a report stating that large corporations and heavily legislation are damaging the American economy. The tide has turned away from American entrepreneurs and into the hands of big companies and institutional investors. Revitalizing America's competitive nature may require removing legislation that hinders small business by revamping our political structure.

Consider the difficulties the small business owner now faces trying to open up a mom and pop shop. There is a maze of rules and regulations that are making nearly impossible for people to make a living outside of working for another company. Would be entreprenuers are now being funneled into large companies and this is having an impact on innovation.

Small companies adapt quickly and large companies find new innovative ideas by buying and using these ideas. In the present market, small businesses are suffering to start and survive; most fail in the first few years. Innovation is being wasted as the entrepreneurial spirit moves away from the dream of business ownership to corporate desk jockey.

Legislation can make changes to ensure small businesses can survive and revitalize our economy. As many of our Midwestern cities are dying there lays dormant an untapped source of rejuvenation. Removing red tape and encouraging reinvestment in neighborhoods and downtown helps to redevelop these cities.

The problem is that the legislative structure is both aggressive and funneled toward large contributions. Many of our government officials find themselves cushy jobs in the very same people who are supporting their campaigns. As long as they hold the line on their positions they are very well taken care of when they move on from their government positions. This report shows us that there are problems with this approach as regulation stifles new business in favor of protecting large companies. Government can balance the needs of both to create a stronger economy where all businesses sizes can succeed.

The Meaning of A Boundless Moment by Robert Frost

A Boundless Moment by Robert Frost He halted in the wind, and — what was that Far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost? He stood there bringing March against his thought, And yet too ready to believe the most. "Oh, that's the Paradise-in-bloom," I said; And truly it was fair enough for flowers had we but in us to assume in march Such white luxuriance of May for ours. We stood a moment so in a strange world, Myself as one his own pretense deceives; And then I said the truth (and we moved on). A young beech clinging to its last year's leaves. The poem is one of seasons changing and the cycle of life. Each May the bloom comes out and brings life to the death of winter. The poem is about a single moment when the characters see that life has changed. The layers of meaning can be deep but on the surface it appears Robert Frost is discussing nature and its cyclical momentum.   Everything in nature moves through patterns. The poem indicates that

Art Review: The Kiss by Gustav Klimt

The Kiss is Gustav Klimt’s most famous and well known painting. Produced in 1908 in Vienna, Austria and incorporated oil and gold life on the canvas ( 1 ). This was unique for his time and represents both tile works with Asiatic influence. The painting and the romance it brings forward is still wonderment to onlookers. The picture depicts a passionate relationship between a man and woman in a sort of perfect place.  The couple is embracing, bodies entwined, wearing robes of wealth and decadence. It provides linear constructs of the Art Nouveau style and the movement of arts with crafts ( 2 ). The male is square and masculine while the woman painted is in curves to represent femininity. The couple is a pair with the woman and man equal in stature. They are in a field of flowers and appear to rise above it.  To many this painting represents the concept that love has no bounds. Social position or worldly wealth cannot hide what goes on under the fancy clothes and standard m
