Unit 6 DB: Insurance Titans - The State and Federal Dichotomy (FIN401 Insurance & Risk Management)

As you have read, insurance is predominately regulated by the various states. In fact, until recently, states held what could be called a regulatory monopoly on what insurers could and could not do within their respective borders. However, given the numerous deficiencies in the American healthcare system, Congress has begun to play a more active role in the area of health insurance.

1. Should the federal government continue to play an active role to manage and regulate health insurance, or should states continue to individually regulate health insurers?

2. Should the federal government expand its regulatory oversight powers to include other types of insurance sectors (e.g., property, commercial general liability, casualty, life insurance, etc….)?

Unit 6 Class DB: Bureau of Labor Statistics (ECO201 Macroeconomics)

Not all groups in our society experience equal opportunity to work. The purpose of this discussion board is to allow you to research and explain the causes of disparity between current total U.S. unemployment and the unemployment rate for a demographic of your choice. Do not just list unemployment rates. Explain what causes the rates for the demographic of your choice to be different from the National average. 

Visit the  Bureau of Labor Statistics  website.  What is the current national unemployment rate?  Find the unemployment rate for the demographic group that best fits a description of you (for example, based on age, sex, and race) or choose a demographic group of interest.  Is the rate for that demographic higher or lower than the national average?  What are some reasons for the differences? Do some research in support of what you present.  What factors contribute to the differences? 

Covid-19 caveat: The Pandemic did not necessarily impact all demographics in the same way.
