This post should supplement the thoughts of others by offering a discussion that’s related to conceptual clarification, theory, processes, findings, and/or policy implications. Your “initial” and “response” posts must be a minimum of 250 words.
So basically you have to include in my topic which is Social Security Act (SSA) 2 things that had a good effect and 2 things that didn’t.
Prompt: In this exercise, post a discussion thread that a) describes the policy in your final paper and b) identifies at least 2 potential costs and 2 potential benefits that are associated with the policy. In other words, consider the costs and benefits of a policy during the formulation stage of the policy process (as if you do not have knowledge of the policy’s actual outcomes). Your colleagues will then add to this discussion by commenting on one or more of the following.
1) Students can discuss whether they agree or disagree with their colleagues’ identified costs and benefits. The purpose is to collaborate and help your colleagues with their final papers. Therefore, students should provide justification for their arguments. Avoid tautological commentary, such as “lowering health care costs is a benefit because lowering health care costs is a good thing.”
2) Students may also contribute to a discussion thread by identifying additional costs and benefits not mentioned by the author.
Please write your responses using full sentences so that your contribution is clear to the reader.
