A firm’s prоductiоn functiоn is given by Q = KL. The mаrginаl products of lаbor and capital are, respectively, MPL = K and MPK = L. The wage rate of labor is w = $10 and the rental rate of capital is r = $20. The firm spends exactly $1000 in the most efficient way possible. How much output can the firm produce?
The Public Cоnduct: Riley, а frustrаted university student, pоsts - using аn anоnymous social media platform - the following poem: “Fuzzy Wuzzy was a Bear; Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair – so I stuffed him." The University’s Dean of Facilities is Franklin “Fuzzy Wuzzy” Watson, a head-shaved Alumnus and former Chicago Bear NFL linebacker. Riley claims his poem was merely a dark, satirical way to vent frustration about the university’s strict on-campus parking policies, including what he considered to be excessive fines levied by Watson’s office - nothing more. Riley contends his post comprises a harmless artistic expression protected by the First Amendment; poor taste should not be criminalized. The Legal Conflict: The University disagrees. Given recent campus agitations, including a spate of vandalism and actual battery of several university personnel – none of which focused on parking matters - the FBI arrested Riley and charged him under a federal statute that in relevant part makes it a crime to “publish or communicate any threat to injure the person of another.” The Prosecution argues any "reasonable person" reading the poem would feel threatened, terrorized, and view it as a real threat of bodily injury – one must be dead in order to be “stuffed.” They say Riley's subjective "intent" does not matter if the published words themselves reflect the threat of bodily injury. Dean Watson had not been interviewed nor given a statement to law enforcement or otherwise prior to Riley’s arrest. The Defense argues the government must prove Riley actually intended to threaten Dean Watson, rather than just writing words for dramatic, hyperbolic venting purposes, even though the operative statute lacks that element. The Aftermath: Riley is convicted under the statute and then appeals. Following oral argument, the Chief Justice has asked you to craft and draft two opinions: One that affirms Riley’s conviction – should that be the Court’s ultimate decision - and alternatively, one that reverses his conviction – should that be the Court’s ultimate decision. Call of the question: Choose and identify two thinkers or schools/traditions reflecting different legal perspectives encountered this semester, using one to craft the affirmance and the other to craft the reversal. Example: “Affirmance relying on Aquinas/natural law . . . .” “Reversal relying on Aquinas/natural law . . .” Your analysis should cohere with the theories you invoke and rely upon for each opinion and should present the analytic core of the ruling based on your chosen theory for each opinion. In other words, the draft opinions need not include every component of a judicial opinion but rather, should focus on, present, and explain how each chosen theory drives and relates to its conclusion: one theory affirming and the other theory reversing Riley’s conviction. If facts not mentioned would make a difference in your analysis, identify them and explain their relevance. Your analysis need not address any potential constitutional 1st amendment issues.
