Opinion piece on the brokenness of the #ElectoralCollege. I think this one strikes the right balance between hope and cynicism.

Thanks to Maine for joining the National Popular Vote Compact. When we get the NPV adopted, votes from large states will have the same power as those from small states, there will be no more swing states, and candidates will campaign in all states. The Electoral College will be irrelevant.

This can happen by 2028.

If you’re in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Virginia, we need you. Get to work.

Het is zondagmiddag. Vlak voor 17.00 uur stapt Evelien hospice De Wijngaard binnen en doet haar vrijwilligersbadge op. Evelien doet vrijwilligerswerk bij terminaal zieke mensen. Wat drijft haar om dit te doen en waarom wordt ze er zo blij van?

Als je ziek bent, wil je het liefst in je eigen vertrouwde omgeving blijven: er gaat niets boven de liefdevolle verzorging, aandacht en nabijheid van familie en mantelzorgers. Maar deze zorg is vaak intensief. Mantelzorgers kunnen steun krijgen van deskundige vrijwilligers van de Nederlandse Patiënten Vereniging (NPV).

If we could vote for president by popular vote rather than the electoral college, we would eliminate focus on swing states, candidates would campaign in every state, campaign funding would carry less weight because, my vote would matter, and the candidate with the most votes would be pres. it would be spread further. What else?

An effort in Lansing could change the way the #ElectoralCollege operates. A bill introduced in the #Michigan House of Reps would have the state join the #NationalPopularVote Interstate Compact. The compact is a group of states that has committed to give their electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the national popula vote.

I’ve not done the HBS one on Striker, but if you’re comparing #irr and #npv of options, focus on discussing the risks of using each approach. IRR is significantly less certain than NPV, given that IRR ignores the discount rate. Use the case data to show the disparity.

I’d stick with your course’s text. If that doesn’t cover it, try this article: https://i-share-uic.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01CARLI_UIC/1b4dsmk/cdi_proquest_miscellaneous_1556292829

This is a long shot but does anyone have a good resource for capital budgeting explanations? I'm specifically looking at the case study Stryker corporation in-sourcing pcbs from the Harvard business review #finance #npv #irr #mba
