Business ethics is an oxymoron.  for example a rich man shouldn’t use wigs

and fake teeth to conseal his identity.  would he take advantage of his consealed

identity and wealth to get into the pants of many of woman in edmonton? 

is dinner and a 5 dollar bottle of wine too much?

What role should any level of government take in social media? (federal, provincial ,city, crown corporations, educational institutions, etc)

I would be so excited if governments and educational institutions made better use of social media. In particular, I think governments should take advantage of the widespread use of social media among younger demographics in order to raise voter turnout in elections.

The voter turnout for Alberta’s last provincial election was a dismal 41%. That is the lowest turnout for a Canadian provincial election in the last 50 years!

I think a lot more young people would be inclined to vote if a couple of things were to happen:

1) There were a way to vote online without having to go to the polling station. It’s not as big of a deal here in Edmonton to stop by the neighbourhood polling station, but for people in rural areas, the nearest polling station could be a 20 minute drive away, and they might not always be able to go. Also - let’s be honest - people are lazy. I think a lot of people would be more inclined to vote if they could do it without leaving their home.

2) Politicians got more involved with social media and interacted with their constituents directly. It’s hard to be an apathetic voter if your premier/MLA/MP/mayor etc. solicits your feedback and responds to it. This sort of interaction would be a way for youth to be directly involved in policy and feel as if their opinions actually mattered. Websites like dearmrpremier.ca are a huge step in the right direction!

What do all of you think? Would you like an online voting option? Would you use it?

Call it a law or call it a favour. Government has used Media since its inception for a positive propoganda. Without media, government is crippled but is it true vice versa? Is the media crippled without governmental support? I think no. The goverment might have more powers over the laws and regulations guiding the industry but the general public is the one who subscribes to the service. The government might be able to exert some force over what is shown and what goes unnoticed in the media but too much involvement will surely call for the doom of public media. In short, the government should be aware of its clear limits on media control.

Donald Trump’s ever so influential words. Business is what brought us together here competing for the grand prize. Business is the reason why you have a job. It is the reason, we are studying. It is the reason we had the Economic boom and the crash. In short, Business is life.

What have you learned about business? Why is business important?

Business is just about organization and communication.  Business is an organic process that happens naturally in life.  It can’t be avoided.  If business wasn’t business, we would still have business.  Business is only the word, not the idea.

It is important because it is apart of life.  Nothing else can be said.  Every aspect of life is essential and business is no exception.

Business is complicated, constantly evolving, and dynamic.  No one will be able to master business, but I’m sure many can properly tame it.
