What are government officials, in a democratic government?
Q. I'm doing this project for my Civics class. I have to create my own government. It says how will government officials be elected, and I'm using the U.S.A.'s government(democratic government) as my government. The teacher said we could pick a government or use one that already exists. To be back on track, I want to know what government officials are and if you know how are they elected.

A. The intent of the designers of our Democratic Republic was to place elected Government officials in positions that answered to & served the citizens. We are currently experiencing a perversion of that intent with executive & representative branches that are ignoring & actually defying the people that put them in office. A majority of the citizens of the USA are frustrated at present. Frustration is a form of anger.

How did the Weimar government allow hyperinflation to occur?
Q. Part of what I study at school in history is the Weimar republic and one of the problems faced by the republic was the issue of hyperinflation. The main reason hyperinflation occurred in the first place was because the government was pretty much bankrupt and decided to print more money, but something I've always wondered is why the government did this. I mean surely someone in the government would point out that no matter how much money they print it wouldn't make them any richer and would only lead to hyperinflation. But printing more money solves nothing. In fact, it makes things worse, surely they realised that?

Other than that, hotels are largely regulated by the state government, with optional, relitively minor, "add on" regulation by the local government.

One major difference is that the make up is more akin to the American system than the British. There is an executive made up of the Prime minister and Government Ministers (regjering). These do not sit in the legislature (storting) which is the equivalent of parliament. There is also a Judicial branch (the courts) and these are again independent, unlike in the UK where they sit as part of the legislature.

A. The regular expenditure multiplier (assuming a closed economy and lump sum taxes) is: 1/(1-MPC) ==> 10 The tax multiplier (again assuming a closed economy and lump sum taxes): -MPC/(1-MPC) ==> -.9/.1 = -9 As for the gap, according to Okun's law, unemployment will be 1% point above the natural rate for every 3% that output is below potential output. I can't tell from the question what the to assume for the unemployment rate at full employment. To keep things simple I'll use the Beveridge estimate of 3% structural unemployment. If you're using the NAIRU, you would choose 0%. Therefore, 9.5% unemployment is 6.5% above the potential rate. This imples a 19.5% gap between full employment GDP and actual GDP. The gap is therefore .195 x… [cont.]
