Bases for Persistent Income Discrepancies
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper discussing possible reasons for the wide discrepancy of income levels in the US. Though there are many factors, much of the issue involves risk. As in the stock market, the higher the risk of a venture, the higher the return. Factory workers and teachers, notoriously low-paid, typically have assumed very little risk in their professions, while a pro sport star could suffer a career-ending injury at any time. There is no question that income levels in the US are absurdly skewed, but it also is fitting that those with the most to lose also see the greatest rewards. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Can Economic Theory Explain Occupational Pay Diversity
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page paper responds to two general questions: Why do occupations that are more vital to the society paid so little, e.g., nursing, while occupations that are not as vital, such as financial advisors, paid so much more? Does economic theory explain this type of disparity in wages? The answer to the first question must look to reports and articles addressing the wage/salary disparity between men and women because the answer has to do with gender-based jobs. The answer to the second question is: Economic theory cannot explain this difference. In fact, the writer explains this situation defies economic theory. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Child Labor in India: Duties, Reasons, Impact, Conditions and Government Policy
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 9 page paper discussing child labor in India. Child labor within India is said to include between 11 and 60 million children in underpaid, exploitive and hazardous conditions. While the majority of child laborers (78.67%) are involved in agricultural labor positions, most human rights organizations focus more so on the urban-based child laborers within the manufacturing sector as those children are more likely to be bonded. Mainly because of international pressure, the India government has imposed several child labor acts in which they tend to create the “world’s largest child labor elimination program”. However, since the Child Labor (Prohibition & Regulation) Act was legislated in 1986, little has been done to improve the child labor situation. In fact, because of the continued poverty rate at over 35% and the need for India to compete on international trade markets, the child labor industry has continued to flourish. Industries charged under child labor legislation pay minimal fines and many industries “hide” their laborers within small cottage communities which are not covered under the legislation. Within the last decade, various international organizations have reported on the appalling conditions of child labor within India but also report that the Indian government only reports 1981 census figures to keep the true numbers unknown which is why the estimates vary. Regardless of the reports however, the child labor and bonded industries continue within India in all industry sectors and will no doubt continue to remain despite international pressures because of ongoing poverty levels, tradition of the caste system and the country’s desire to remain competitive within the international market. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
