I am running out of available resources but the blog so I have to type and save so.

The following is a series of the notes I have taken:

“Excellence and mutual respect are our core values.

Diversity and flexibility help us to realize them.

…diversity … experiences and ideas … our lives and … quality of … work. Differences encourages us to look at problems from a fresh perspective and to be creative, thus strengthening our collaborative approach.

Flexibility in the way … is a reflection of … respect for the differences among …

Many .. choose to devote substantial time and effort to pro bono work.

…an astonishing array of backgrounds.

“… is a world leader in every area in which we practice. Our combined strength domestically and internationally unsurpassed.”

The following key words are from conversations and talks from someone sometime somewhere.

respect, trust, culture
collaboration happens naturally at …. because …. people respect and trust . . .  It is … cultural … .

focus, passion, better deal,

…always focused on … possible on behalf of ….

There is a pervasive spirit of confidence that defines us. And that really means passion. Passion for the better….And all in a practical, results-oriented way.

“A true MERITOCRACY … is one of the nation’s leading…., with a team of 650 … serving clients through offices in .

… excellence in … work, reputation … delivery, and … challenge ourselves to go above and beyond as a matter of course.

…  are book smart and street smart — classic over achievers who fight form the best possible outcome.

… embrace and commit to a collective pursuit of the possible — we are flexible , nimble, creative, and opportunities we treat as our own.

… is a true meritocracy where we demand that each of us prove ourselves every day — no resting on laurels, no coasting on past success.

Amid this high energy achievement is a deep generosity of spirit and a desire to help and give back– to each other, to our communities, to those less fortunate.”

FLEXIBLE, ENTREPRENEURIAL, OPTIMISM

… people are multitaskers. We’re enegetic, flexible and willing to embrace change. We call this entrepreneurial optimism — as “I know I can” view of our work.

…. people are CREATIVE an AGRICULTURE. That is the case whether we’re dealing with the BIG PICTURE or the fine print. We’re at ease explaining issues in plain language, framing the alternatives and guiding others to a wise business decision.

… this requires equal measures of CONFIDENCE and CHARISMA.

people in this firm have a natural affinity for risk. It is a combination of CURIOSITY and COURAGE that often leads to achievement and success in different ways.

… people understand that the greatest risks are often those not taken.

Doing the right thing is not just a matter of conscience for … people. It is a growth framework — personal and professional. it is about sensitivity to different perspectives and problems.

Collaboration happens organically at … because … people RESPECT and TRUST each other. it’s a cultural thing. And that’s because people like each other at this firm — they always have.

We know what it takes to make a great lawyer and a great colleague.  . . we are interested in … character of the people joining us. Because our character is what makes us distinct. If qualities like the ones in this book are appealing, we have a GENUINE interest in talking to you.

Health insurance problems:

Funding issue

Whether the universal healthcare law is justified in the social context.

Is it fair, which is the basis of the health care?

If it is, whether it is just?

My argument is that the law is fair at certain point as means, but unjust as the ends.

It is fair since it provides universal health insurance.

It is not just since it provided no solution to the funding.

Sen’s model or design of the universal healthcare model is that:

Just law= efficiency + single-payer system

Efficiency=cost/benefit + equity of system

———————-

The content of the law is try to provide the legal frame work to every one to obey,  but it does not provide the means to allow it to carry out in the long-run.  Just like in the Hedge-fund, some greedy fund managers rip off the legal system and chasing super-quick money only in the short term. It does not only bad for the economy but also sad for the countries. Everything in the legal field is designed for the purpose of the economy but there is also something else need to consider as well. The law, which is biding everyone living within its jurisdiction, has to be in the content of fair, which leads to justice in the long run.

Sen argues that comparative approach to justice would concentrate on ranking alternative societal arrangements rather than focusing exclusively on the identification of a fully just society.

To be sure, Rawls need not agree that the world is really unjust if he remains fully attached to the belief that the concept of justice dos not apply at the global level.
