Governments at all levels federal, state, and municipal exert a significant influence on business. The impacts of these influences may be negative, such as the imposition of costly regulations, or they may be positive, such as the provision of financial incentives for the creation of new jobs.
Both negative and positive governmental actions present challenges for businesses: the impact of the action on the business’s “bottom line,” how public opinion will be influenced by the business’s response to a particular action, and the ethical issues associated with each response, for example.
Prompt: Your paper should identify and briefly describe the business that you propose to study and describe the government impact that it has faced or would be likely to confront.
Select a business that has faced, or is facing, governmental action, and analyze the impact of this action on the business.
