Read and independently research an Article, Amendment, or Section of the U.S. Constitution of your choice.

Read and independently research an Article, Amendment, or Section of the U.S. Constitution of your choice. Consider how, as the supreme law of the land, it may have influenced or framed one of the laws or regulations that was discussed in the text and lectures. If at first you do not see how, for example, the Constitutional mandate about voting age relates to information security or privacy, think more critically. Did we discuss the various ages that the law views a “child” as? Every law, by definition, relates back to the U.S. Constitution in one manner. Countless civil and criminal lawsuits—car wrecks, contract issues in business, any crime, etc.—contain arguments that touch on the Constitution, even when the issue at bar seems far afield. It is because of that omnipresent and important function of the U.S. Constitution that this exercise will help you understand the entire course in its light.

Interpret the Virtuous Business Model through the lens of a parable (a story told by Jesus).

The parable of the Good Samaritan is one that is unique and, most importantly, makes us think about two different questions. The first question is simple; what must one do to inherit eternal life? As one reads the parable, it is very simple that one must love God with all their heart and must love their neighbor as their self. This leads to the second question; who is my neighbor? The answer is everyone, anyone with whom you come in contact is your neighbor, people we work with, people we socialize with, and people we do not agree with; they all are our neighbors. How we care for people shows our relationship with God, and He has called us to a place of caring for each other no matter our culture, our ethnicity, or even our religion. We must love God with all our heart and love our neighbor as ourselves. 

Upon successful completion of this discussion, you will be able to:

  • Interpret the Virtuous Business Model through the lens of a parable (a story told by Jesus).

Texas Legislature – H.B 21

Every August, Texas has a “tax free weekend.” School supplies and school clothes can be purchased for a few days without the addition of Texas’ 6 1/4 % sales tax – which, around Houston, is really 8 1/4% because of the additional penny for the City of Houston and the additional penny for METRO.

What about college textbooks? Have you priced them lately? Ours isn’t too bad, but some of my students pay nearly $300 for some science and engineering books.

Representative Terry Canales (D-Edinburg) – (https://house.texas.gov/members/member-page/?district=40) wants to cut college textbook customers in on the action before each regular semester.

Go to the Texas Legislature’s website, https://capitol.texas.gov/Home.aspx and look up House Bill 21. 

Hint: Make sure you use the little pull-down menu to select the current legislative session (86R-2019 – that’s the 86th Regular session of the Texas Legislature) and just type HB21 in the search window.

What do you think? 

Write a 2 – 5 page essay explaining this bill and the problem it’s trying to solve. Explain the advantages and disadvantages with this approach. Do you think it will pass? If you were a legislator, how would you vote on this bill?
