The City of Ditty passes a law that requires all pizza delivery persons to sing to customers when delivering pizza. Tone Deaf, the owner of the “No Frills Pizza Restaurant” challenges the law as being a denial of Equal Protection of the Laws because pizza delivery persons are being treated differently from other delivery persons or other restaurant employees. The City of Ditty claims that its governmental interest in passing the law was part of its overall economic plan to attract music industry type businesses to Ditty by creating a “music-friendly” city. If the Court finds this to be a legitimate governmental interest, what else must Ditty prove in order to win its case?
the law is necessary to achieve that interest.
the law directly advances that interest.
the law creates the least restrictions on important fundamental rights while advancing that interest.
the law is reasonably related to achieving the legitimate interest.
the law is supported by more than half the city…
According to a report from the US Census Bureau, "the average lifetime earnings of a full-time year round work
with a high school education is about $1.2 million, compared to about $2.1 million for a college graduate. This
indicates that there is a considerable benefit to a graduate from investing in his or her own education. Tuition at
most state universities covers only about 2/3- of actual costs, so the state provides a subsidy to college
education. If this subsidy is appropriate, is the externality created by the college education a positive or
negative externality? What does this imply about the costs and benefits to the student as opposed to the costs
and benefits to society in general? What are some reasons for the differences?

- The theory of distributive justice that I found to be the most convincing was the Utilitarianism theory. In current times there is a large amount of economic inequality. It states in the textbook, "The top 0.1 percent of American families owns 22 percent of the nation’s wealth–exactly the same share as the bottom 90 percent" (Shaw, 2017, p. 85). The Utilitarianism theory believes that there should be a greater equality of income. They believe that if there was a more equal distribution of income, then the happiness of that population would vastly increase. The textbook mentions that countries that have a more equal distribution of income tend to have lower rates of infant mortality, life expectancy, malnutrition, obesity, teenage pregnancy, economic insecurity, personal anxiety, and other measures, in comparison to countries that have a larger income inequality, such as the United States (Shaw, 2017, p. 92). It is even believed that income equality can promote economic growth (Shaw,…arrow_forwardEkdkckdofockkedarrow_forwardThe City Council of Lincoln, Nebraska has proposed raising the minimum wage in their city up to $12.50 per hour up from the current level of $9.50.

- On December 30, 1974, the hypothetical country Alpha decided to introduce a minimum wage policy. Cities with ID numbers 11, 23, 45, 57, 60, and 61 were randomly chosen to implement this minimum wage policy. The remaining cities in country Alpha did not adopt a minimum wage policy. You are asked to empirically and theoretically evaluate the impact of the introduction of the minimum wage in country Alpha on the labour market outcomes. Assuming there is no labour mobility and using the basic model of minimum wage, how do you expect the introduction of this policy to change the existing equilibrium wage and employment rate in the affected cities?arrow_forwardDiscuss the first and second fundamental theory of Welfare Economics.arrow_forwardBriefly describe the theory of rational ignorance.arrow_forward
