Why Are Some People Saying The Marketplace.gov Website

Problem with Xbox Live Marketplace & Movie Apps/Music Apps?

Its most likely due to parental controls?
If you have a parental account associated with your account, the default dashboard setting is set to family oriented content as opposed to standard. This restricts some content that is visible. To change (home, settings, family, parental controls, (enter passcode), dashboard, (enter parental password))

If there isnt a parental account associated with yours then its because of your connection. (not fast enough)

:D :D

What are the types of government intervention in the market place?

The government has many ways to influence the market, however, for economics class purposes, there are basically 3.

Price floors are a minimum prices set by the government, so basically the price is stuck. This causes a deadweight loss to society and increases producer surplus while reducing consumer surplus. A minimum price would be like milk prices. The milk farmers know that regardless of how much they make, they will receive a specific minimum price per gallon, and in some instances, the government buys the surplus (in the form of cheeses or powdered milks).

Price ceilings are the maximum legal price. Consumer surplus increases, but only for those few who are able to get the good, since quantity produced goes down. Such is the case as affordable housing in some cities. The government tries to create affordable housing by setting low rent prices, but what happens is that the landlords (some call them slumlords in this aspect) don't have enough extra money to either improve their properties (to attract higher paying clients, since there is a cap on how much he can charge) or build more property. So there is usually a shortage in the housing since people want the lower price housing and, though there is a shortage, once they get one, they typically never move out.

Taxes are the third and create a general inefficiency. Taxes increase the price of a good for consumers and are usually shared between the consumer and the seller, by way of price equilibrium, unless it is completely elastic and any increase in price (regardless of whether it is caused by taxes) dissolves demand.

The government can do other things as tax adjustments and subsidies, but they all fall under the previous headings.

Why do people lie about Marijuana facts?

Alright, seriously..sit down, put your own biased opinion aside and lets think about this.
The whole key to answer my question, is you have to set your own opinion aside.

Why do government agencies, or any Anti-Drug organization 'Distort' the facts to their favor?

Really... really now... why? What reason do they have? Why wouldn't they want people to know the actual facts?
And they know the facts, dont lie to yourself, the founders of the organizations and leaders of the govt. agencies, they're smart leaders, well educated and you know that. No one can be that ignorant and head an organization like that, ya know? so they are 'purposely' distorting the facts.
Theyre not lying, everything they say is technically true. Ive visited a bunch of websites, read a bunch of pamphlets, been to a good amount of therapy, seen some tv commercials, heard a lil radio and magazine ads.
They really do need to bold the phrase, "MARIJUANA CAN..." .
Everything can do anything ya know.
It makes me sooooo mad.

but really...why? what reason? someone tell me the god-honest truth.. why do they distort the facts?

What happened to carmen wong ulrich on marketplace money?

What happened to Carmen Wong Ulrich on marketplace money? Personally, I've always thought she was a bit irritating, but she was the new host on marketplace money and now their website says she is the former host. What happened? Was she fired? Did she leave?
