Nearly all of us participate in the labor market. Persons who are 16 years old or older and not in the armed forces are in the labor market if they work at least one hour a week for pay or 15 hours for no pay in family businesses, or are unemployed and looking for work. So workers include teenagers doing farm chores, dishwashers, unemployed veterans, mechanics, gas station clerks, high school teachers, tire salespersons, professors, and, yes, CEOs. Each supplies labor that is demanded by firms to make products valued by consumers. Although government's primary function was initially limited to protecting an individual's rights to life, liberty, and property, today it has taken on a more interventionist role. According to some (normativists), government should do more to improve the lives of America's working poor like raise the minimum wage or close the border. In a world of constants, such policy can benefit those most in need. The world we live in, however, is dynamic and uncertain. Others (positivists) point out the unintended consequences of well-intentioned policy. Fortunately or not, interventionism is the rule not the exception because our world is somewhat ill-informed on these and many other issues of interest to business owners, managers, and labor economists. This book teaches business leaders, managers, policy makers, and others who haven't been formally trained in labor economics to understand this discipline. By incorporating clear graphs and non-technical language, the book explores various government policy decisions made on behalf of labor and the consequences of those decisions. The book begins with an accessible, concise, and thorough development of labor supply and demand. The book then explores the tradeoff(s) between the economic efficiency of free markets and government equity interventions including anti-poverty policy, migration, unionization, discrimination, and education.

Lange provides a cultural analysis of maple syrup making, known in Vermont as sugaring, to illustrate how maple syrup as both process and product is an aspect of cultural identity.Readers will go deep into a Vermont sugar bush and its web of plastic tubes, mainline valves, and collection tanks. They will visit sugarhouses crammed with gas evaporators and reverse-osmosis machines. And they will witness encounters between sugar makers and the tourists eager to invest Vermont with mythological fantasies of rural simplicity.So much more than a commodity study, Meanings of Maple frames a new approach for evaluating the broader implications of iconic foodways, and it will animate conversations in food studies for years to come.

Kate Morgan loves a good mystery. She's an avid reader and she recently finished writing a murder mystery. The story takes place at the fictionalized version of Maple Ridge, the real life home of Chad Hollingsworth, the man Kate has been dating for the past year.Chad has invited Kate to his parents' annual New Year's Eve party where Kate will meet the other members of his family. On the drive to Maple Ridge, he tells her, "I have to warn you. When the Hollingsworth family gets together, there's always a lot of drinking and drama." He has no way of knowing there will be a murder. In a strange twist of fate, there are numerous similarities between Kate's manuscript and what actually happens. Kate is determined to separate fact from fiction by figuring out the identity of the killer. But she soon discovers that solving a murder in real life is a lot harder than figuring out whodunit in a mystery novel.

Island Passages: The Maple Hill and Other Journeys

Description I was born and raised on St. Joseph Island in the North Channel of the St. Mary's River and I am a third- generation Islander. My Grandfather settled here during the Potato Famine in Ireland as Canada awarded land grants to immigrants at that time. Up until 1972, Islanders relied on car ferries to travel to the mainland, and before the ferries, shipping was the only link, although in winter, roads were ploughed over the ice. As a result, there was an isolation, an insulation as it were from the sundry events of the rest of the world, and an unique social environment evolved. Growing up here, I had the privilege to enjoy the richness and diversity both of the inhabitants and of the environment itself. Back in the day the population was approximately 1,600, and I knew everyone, or at least something about them. The five stories in this anthology speak to the close contact I have with the place, and although they are based on true stories, the characters themselves are fictional: Maple Hill Series: I went to one of the one-room school up until grade six. All of them were closed in 1964 and amalgamated into one large school, and the first series of stories reflects some of my experiences therein. Ferry: I also worked on The St. Joseph Islander, the Island's last ferry, as a summer job the year the new bridge was built, and this exposure is rife with substance. It also involves a love story. The Good Maxwell: This is a humorous story told by my Mother about her father taking ownership of one of the first cars on the Island. Hard Red Candy: This story was also relayed to me by my Mother, and it speaks of the unique hardships early settlers had to endure. Hidden Treasures: It speaks to the wonderment and utter privilege of being a father to two small boys. In writing these stories, I have had the luxury of time travel to significant events that helped shape who I am. The themes are universal, and it is my hope they open in you a passage rich with value and import.
