read the given passages and answer the question with the help of the information provided in the passage. under very early common law, all felonies were punishable by death. the perpetrators of the felony were hanged whether or not a homicide had been committed during the felony. later, however, some felonies were declared to be non-capital offences. the common law courts, in need of a deterrent to the use of deadly force in the course of these non-capital felonies, developed the "felony-murder" rule. the first formal statement of the rule stated: '1 y killing by one in the commission of a felony is guilty of murder." the killing was a murder whether intentional or unintentional, accidental or mistaken. the usual requirement of malice was eliminated and the only criminal intent necessary was the intent to commit the particular underlying felony. all participants in the felony were guilty of murder actual killer and non-killer confederates. proponents of the rule argued that it was justified because the felony demon treated a lack of concern for human life by the commission of a violent and dangerous felony and that the crin1e was murder either because of a conclusive presumption of malice or simply by force of statutory definition. opponents of the rule describe it as a highly artificial concept and "an enigma wrapped in a riddle." they are quick to point out that the rule has been abandoned in england where it originated, abolished in india, severely restricted in canada and a number of other commonwealth countries are unknown in continental europe and abandoned in michigan. in reality, the real strength of the opponents' criticism stems from the bizarre and of times unfair results achieved when the felony-murder rule is applied mechanically. defendants have been convicted under the rule where the killing was purely accidental, or the killing took place after the felony during the later flight from the scene, or a third party killed another (police officer killed a citizen or vice versa, or a victim died of a heart attack 15-20 minutes after the robbery was over, or the person killed was an accomplice in the felony). attacks on the rule have come from all directions with basically the same demand - re-evaluate and abandon the archaic legal fiction; restrict and f it vicarious criminal liability; prosecute killers for murder, not non-killers; increase punishment for the underlying felony as a real deterrent and initiate legislative modifications. with the unstable history of the felony - murder rule, including its abandonment by many jurisdictions in this country, the felony-murder rule is dying a slow but certain death. the author believes that the felony-murder the rule is
an unfair equating of intent to commit a felony and intent to commit murder
the “rule of law” states that everyone, regardless of any discrimination, is equal before the law. in an independent and democratic india, all citizens from a rickshaw puller to the prime minister are to be judged equally before the law if they violate it by committing a crime. every violation of a law or commitment of a criminal offense has a specific process to establish guilt and cite its punishment. the “rule of law” ensures that equality is maintained by passing the same judgment on a criminal regardless of his/her status or background.
violations of the “rule of law” are, sadly enough, aplenty in india. in our country, if one has power or “contacts” with influential people, then it is easy to get away with even gross violations of laws and rules. for example, most politicians today own property and wealth worth crores but they do not even file tax returns on the same. the assets they declare are probably not even half of what they originally own. however, an ordinary income tax official cannot dare to question them for fear of losing his job, because the former have “power” that this official does not possess. not a chance. you have convictions for relevant crimes. you're a thief and you carry a knife. allow private companies to compete with all govenrment services. its that simple.

when a govenrment monopoly is in place, there is no reason or mechanism for the corruption to go away.

in a free market, corruption leads to losses, so it provides incentive for the business to fire and prosecute those who are corrupt.

take the government monopoly on police protection for example. what happens to police who do not respond to a robbery? what happens to reports of police beatings and theft? often nothing. there is no incentive for anything to be done. on the other hand, in a free market, every instance would be investigated and reparations paid for mistakes, else competition will have a chance of providing the service instead.

also consider this. government programs benefit from losses. it allows them to request budget increases, or power increases. inefficiency is rewarded in government, the opposite of what is rewarded in a free market. saying that, corruption assists government as it helps to drive up costs of operation.

*corruption in society is a problem? society, or the people do not have the power to imprison you, or tax you. you are not forced to fund private citizens who are 'corrupt'. sylvia frank chlh 274 homework problems chapter 3 1. a. crude death rate: total populace death in a specific span-time at the mean year. b. age-specific rate: total incidence occurred in a specific-age group of the populace in a specific span time. c. cause-specific rate: total death of a populace from a specific-cause in a specific span-time at the mean year. d. proportional mortality ratio: total death within a populace due to a specific-cause divided by the total death in the populace e. maternal mortality rate: incidence of death because of birth of a child or due to pregnancy associated complications. f. infant mortality rate: rate of event of newborn death over a year by birth of newborn over a same interval. g. neonatal mortality in the case of a crisis, like our economy, the president can declare martial law.anyone (not just minority) who dont cooperate ect. with the new world order agenda, or that cant contribute to the government will be gathered by federal agents and taken to concentration camps.god forbid we cant pay our taxes! at least thats the way i understand it. I'll assume you mean how much actual time would be served on a particular sentence... it starts with "good time credits" that are applied to the sentence calculator a the beginning of the sentence. An inmate can only lose that good time by having behavior issues or breaking numerous rules. In federal you get 15%, state prison ranges from 15-30% good time. The difference with the state is that they're also dealing with a parole system too that can release an offender having done only one-third of their sentence. directions: the question below has two blanks, each blank indicating that something has been omitted. choose the set of words which best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.governments do not want to take a decision and resort to soft-pedaling, delay tactics and collusion, hoping that the judiciary will \_\_\_\_\_ in to relieve them of the \_\_\_\_\_ of decision-making. the heroes. as powerful as they are, they would be able to run up to him and tear off the gauntlet before he could snap.
