Dow Corning's Breast Implants
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page report on the debate surrounding the use of silicone gel breast implants. Ralph Nader involved himself in the controversy in 1988. Since then, various groups have come forward with comments: consumer groups in favor of the implants, consumer groups in opposition to the implants, attorneys, insurance companies, plastic surgeons, and even Congress. That there have been problems with the implants is a point that no one contests. The issue at the core of the debate is whether silicone migrating to other areas of the body truly is, as was originally thought, biologically inert, or whether it contributes to some hidden reaction.

Downsizing & The Business Environment
[ send me this essay ]
A 15 page paper discussing the way downsizing was. Much has come of the corporate downsizing experience, on both sides. Business is increasingly competitive, and most businesses have exhausted every avenue of "quick fix" for reducing costs and preserving profits. One "new" approach is that businesses have realized that it costs far more to replace employees than to keep them, and the most forward-looking are those taking very good care of their employees, and building and preserving morale. Such was not the case at the height of downsizing, however. This paper presents two examples each of companies that handled their downsizing well and those that did not. Bibliography lists 30 sources.

Downsizing's Effects on its Affected Households
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper. Even though two-income families can make the downsizing transition much easier than those without a significant second income, there are still substantial issues they will have to overcome. Some end up working in distant cities and conducting long-distance marriages; many more finally take jobs at an income far below their former one. Homes have been lost, retirement funds have been decimated to meet living expenses, and some have even taken to living on credit card cash advances for their immediate needs when they saw no alternative. Downsizing and layoffs all affect specific households, but not all those effects are "bad" ones. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
