Description

Using the chart provided below, you are to make a budget for the state of Texas.

Lesson

Balancing a state budget is much harder than most of us conceive. The state government operates on set revenue. Unlike the federal government, they state cannot print money at will. The state also has a smaller tax base than the federal government. Few of us take the time to consider the balancing act of appropriating money to the various government departments. This assignment is created to provide you with some perspective on how funds are appropriated throughout the state. It is very basic and rudimentary. Yet, it can serve as a great starting point for understanding the political debates that occur around state funds.

Instructions

Fill in the budget sheet provided below. You should place your appropriation amounts in within the highlighted areas. Notice how the budget cycle lasts for 2 years. The budget numbers for the 2018-2019 cycle are provided for you to give you some guidance on what the state already spends.

discussion question

1) You are the Operations Director for the Emergency Department at University Hospital. Earlier this week, you reviewed with your Board of Directors a disturbing trend that shows that patients in your ED have a complication rate nearly twice that of neighboring hospitals (Complications include hospital-acquired infections, allergic reactions to prescribed treatment plans, adverse outcomes due to delays in treatment, etc.).

You have been tasked with developing an action plan to improve this issue. What are some potential causes of the adverse outcomes, and what are some prevention strategies that you may want to employ to prevent them? (Hint: it may be helpful to classify the causes into 3 categories discussed in class and discuss a prevention strategy for each category).

Russian Gas and European Politics or Compare Energy Transition in Germany & Japan

Please choose one discussion prompt below to respond to:  A – Russian Gas and European Politics, or,  B – Compare Energy Transition in Germany & Japan.  After making  your initial post, be sure to make at least one of your response posts  to the other discussion question prompt.

A – Russian Gas and European Politics

Western European natural gas dependency on Russia is a topic of  contemporary interest, but few people understand that this energy  interdependence was a product of political choices emanating from the  political tumult of the 1970s. In that decade, Western European  countries perceived the US  as being in need of economic and political balancing as much as they  wanted to reduce their reliance on Middle Eastern oil, and Russian  natural gas supplies amidst an era of détente offered a solution which  seemed to also increase diverse supplies for the West Germans, for  example. Four decades later, it is worth reassessing these particular  geopolitical conditions and addressing the questions below.

Based on your considered review of this module’s readings as well as  your reflection upon the first three modules, evaluate the questions  below.

  • In retrospect it seems obvious, but exactly how and why did Eastern  European countries come to depend on Russian oil and natural gas after  World War II?
  • Why did the Western Europeans reach energy accords with the Russians  in the 1970s and early 1980s, building large-scale natural gas import  infrastructures and increasing their dependence on Russian gas?

OR

B – Compare Energy Transition in Germany & Japan

The advanced industrial states vary greatly in their energy use and  greenhouse gas emission profiles. They also vary in government policies  and energy company commitments to altering course on consumption of  fossil fuels. Some advanced states have embraced a goal of less fossil  fuels in their electrical generation and transportation sectors, while  others are less interested in this goal and instead seek to maintain the  existing energy systems by simply bringing new fossil fuel supplies on  line to keep up with demand (e.g.,  Canadian oil sands for gasoline). Japan and Germany are advanced  industrial states with legacies of being fully entrenched in the US-led  system with a heavy emphasis on oil as the primary fuel. In each  American ally’s case, recent governmental decisions and corporate  commitments have altered each nation’s energy mix and course. Bearing  these potential differences in mind, address the questions below in this  discussion.

Based on your considered review of this module’s readings as well as  your reflection upon the first three modules, evaluate the questions  below:

  • What are Germany and Japan doing differently in their energy and  climate policies, compared with the US, and how has this affected their  mix of energy sources used?
  • Do you believe Germany and Japan should be working toward a common  objective of energy transition away from fossil fuels? Why or why not?
