The British government usually left American colonists to make their own laws pertaining to local matters. American colonial trade was severely crippled by British trade laws.

Because they were part of the British empire, colonists were constantly involved in England’s imperial wars with France and Spain. Parliament taxed the American colonists as a way to express its authority over them, not because it needed. the money.

...Sean Bouchard Eng101 TITLE IN THE WORKS Who have we become as a nation? What happened to the real and true American spirit? The spirit of individuality, freedom, and happiness? For too long I have seen this nation become sheep, become beggars, and whiners, always looking for a free handout and when they don’t get it, they whine and blame others, or the elites, for not giving them what they think they are owed. It’s as if America has become a nanny state. It’s because of this that I recently started looking into another way of thought, one that I feel is not just American, but truly human. I’m not gonna go on some rant on how things should have been but on how we can still make them. I want to make you wonder about another field of thought, of another way to guide your life and it may even improve it. It’s the thought of true Independence and Freedom. Most of all, I want you to start thinking. For quite a few years now I have been reading the works of Lysander Spooner, Murray Rothbard, Benjamin Tucker, and Henry Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson and the lesser known William Buppert. All of these men have helped to shape my thinking and shape my beliefs (might be a bad thing, but I’m liking the freedom it’s given my mind). It’s given me a power I never truly felt before, the power to live a free life and the power to question. I always felt I lived a rather free life, I mean, we live in a free country right? Freedom to speak, to write, to get a job, to fail? I even felt...

...Global Warming and its Effects on Business: “The beginning of the Industrial Revolution brought many new, exciting inventions into our lives to simplify our lives and made them more efficient.” (Garrett, 1994, pp 234-235). Such inventions included cars, household appliances and plants that burn solid waste, fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas, and coal, and wood and wood products for fuel. Before the Industrial Revolution, human activities caused very few gases to be released into the atmosphere, but now scientists say, through the burning of fossil fuels, a large population growth and deforestation, humans are affecting the mixture of gases in the atmosphere. This mixture of gases in the atmosphere is causing the worldwide problem known as Global Warming. (Garrett, 1994). There are many links between global warming and the future of business, investments and the economy. Global Warming is very detrimental to our future, both scientifically and in the business world. The effects of global warming will have a profound impact on the way we live and therefore the way we carry out our business and investments. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, “the earth has a natural “greenhouse effect” which is caused by energy from the sun controlling the earth’s weather and climate, and heats the earth’s surface. In response to the sun, the earth radiates energy back into space.” (Clean Air Act. 2006. Retrieved January 3, 2007, from http://www.epa.gov/air/oaq_caa...

Meanwhile, management is the function in industry concerned in the execution of policy, which is within the limits set up by administration, and the employment of the organization for the particular objects set before it. Although literature on the field of business management dates back to the late nineteenth century, the study of human service management and administration is relatively recent. Most of the literature has come from the field of non-profit management such as social work, the arts, education, research, science, religion, philanthropy,...

...Harvard Business Review focused on how managers are turning their companies into customer-focused organizations. The growing obsession with customer excellence is driven, in part, by technology. Today customers can obtain and exchange more information about the good and bad of their encounters with companies than ever before. That gives companies a great incentive to work harder to make customers happy — before, during, and after their purchases. © 2011 Harvard Business School Publishing. All rights reserved.

...Bloodlines of Illuminati by: Fritz Springmeier, 1995 Introduction: I am pleased & honored to present this book to those in the world who love the truth. This is a book for lovers of the Truth. This is a book for those who are already familiar with my past writings. An Illuminati Grand Master once said that the world is a stage and we are all actors. Of course this was not an original thought, but it certainly is a way of describing the Illuminati view of how the world works. The people of the world are an audience to which the Illuminati entertain with propaganda. Just one of the thousands of recent examples of this type of acting done for the public was President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union address. The speech was designed to push all of the warm fuzzy buttons of his listening audience that he could. All the green lights for acceptance were systematically pushed by the President’s speech with the help of a controlled congressional audience. The truth on the other hand doesn’t always tickle the ear and warm the ego of its listeners. The light of truth in this book will be too bright for some people who will want to return to the safe comfort of their darkness. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I deal with real facts, not theory. Some of the people I write about, I have met. Some of the people I expose are alive and very dangerous. The darkness has never liked the light. Yet, many of the secrets of the Illuminati are locked up tightly simply because secrecy is a way...
