.... within our society today; young people are not taught to save for retirement. I think that many of my friends do not even think much of saving for their college graduation, let alone for their retirement. Eventually, however, most of us will reach a point in our lives where work shall come to an end, yet the existence of living expenses will not. Social security, many of us find out; will provide us with a monthly check at this point. What we do not realize, however, is that this amount is not intended to be used as our sole source of income. Unfortunately, the tragic irony is that many of us reach retirement and realize too late how impossible it would be ....

.... healthy, well adjusted adults. Something must be done to break this cycle, because besides helping children to develop to their full potential, government assistance "saves society the costs incurred when intellectually and socially impaired children grow up to be intellectually and socially impaired adults"(Collins 59). The need for some sort of assistance for many children became obvious to me on a volunteer project I did in high school. The summer after my junior year I took a trip to San Antonio with about twenty other students. We were divided between two different projects, and I went to work in a summer day-care program in an underprivileged area. The day-care w ....

.... Brewery. In 1935 Falstaff purchaes the Krug brewery in Omaha, Nebraska and became the first major brewer to operate seperate plants in different states. Business was so good that Falstaff aquired the National Brewery in New Orleans in 1937. Joseph Griesedieck died in 1938 and his son Alvin took over. Things stayed this way until 1948 when Falstaff bought the Coulumbia Brewery Co. in St. Louis and began to make Falstaff there. Falstaff had three plants in St. Louis. In 1952 Falstaff bough another Brewery in San Jose. That same year Falstaff closed the former Otto Stiffel brewery in St. Louis. In 1954 they bought the Bergoff Brewery in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. 1956 brought ....

.... that the government had to urge Canadian producers to save some news print for its own newspapers. This was just the beginning in the Americanization of Canada. As more and more Canadian exports were being directed into the United States, the British invested less and less into the Canadian economy, while the Americans invested more, and more, and more. More and more Canadians began to believe in their country again, and more and more began to invest in various money making systems, such as stocks and bonds, investing in companies, and even making their own company. Anyone who had an idea could make a company to produce it. The most powerful bu ....

.... skills. A better understanding of the Japanese society provides the framework to understanding the workings of Japanese business (and possibly the Japanese mind.) The ways of the Japanese provide a foundation for their economic adaptability in modern times. Japan is a culture where human relations and preservation of harmony are the most important elements in society. "It is their sense of identity and destiny which gives their industrial machine its effectiveness."1 "Among the Japanese, there exists an instinctive respect for institutions and government, for the rules of etiquette and service, for social functions and their rituals of business. Japan is a traditionally ....

.... generate over $21 billion in revenues (Dept. of Communications, 1992, p7). Telecommunications helps to overcome the obstacles of distance in a vast country such as Canada, permitting remote communities to benefit from services taken for granted in large urban centres. More than 98 percent of Canadian households have a telephone, and there are more than 15 million telephone lines for a population of nearly 27 million(Dept. of Communications, 1992, p7). It is therefore not surprising that Canadians are among the biggest users of telecommunications in the world. For example, in 1990, Canadians made more than three billion long-distance calls (Dept. of Communications, 1992, p8). ....

.... account, or the stock market. Right now, the average American has withdrawn all he has put into Social Security within 7 years of retirement. This forces the everyday worker to support those currently on Social Security with his payments. Whoever is still in the work force should be given the opportunity to do with their money as they see fit. If someone feels that they are unable to invest wisely in the stock market, there are other options available. For instance, and perhaps the simplest, is to invest the funds into a money-market account, which will on average receive 1-1 1/2% more interest than a traditional savings account. From the time the average American starts ....
