    The issues involved in resolving legal disputes in international Transactions are the changes that are mad to international laws and regulations. The largest focus is the minimum wages. What is most discussed is China has a cheap labor force compared to America. This increases the profits for the company who outsources to cheaper labor cost. If the China manufacturing do not meet the US standards the US Company may become obligated to take legal action against the China Company. The American Company must take into consideration if the China Company meets their manufacturing requirements. The most common discuss topic on this matter is the lead based paint China Manufacturing applied to their products. American laws banned lead based paint and all products in China did not have an obligation to change their paint because China did not ban the lead in the paint. Once the orders started to return because it didn’t meet the US standards, China standards and laws did not change, however the China Company changed its paint to continue business with its foreign business partner. This strengthened the relationship and caused for contracts to outline such changes in manufacturing requirement. To cover the purchase of illegal products a contract must be agreed upon between the companies. This is the same in the way CadMex granted sublicensing agreements. This places CadMex as the liable party in a lawsuit. Without total control over the loosely worded contracts they become vulnerable to loop holes when law suits are filed against them. When the local customs and laws conflict with the customs and laws of an organization operating abroad the company that produces the product has the responsibility to abide by the ordering countries laws. When ordering products the contracts should stipulate the required regulation standards. If both parties agree upon the…

    This film was very interesting to watch. It made me realize how many frivolous lawsuits that have occurred. The Stella Liebeck case was huge example. Yes I understand she suffered third degree burns and had to be hospitalized for a week or so to recover but it could have possibly been prevented. The right thing to do would be to be careful when handling the cup of hot coffee. The cup itself says to be careful and why would anyone put a cup of hot coffee in between their legs especially being in the passenger seat where one could actually hold the cup in their hands which would have possibly prevented her from spilling hot coffee all over herself. The media won’t tell you that the actually cup itself melted from the hot coffee and therefore doesn’t give those who question this case a chance to see what really happened. This film seems to give a broad layout of what actually took place and why Stella Liebeck should be awarded for damages.…

    Since Democratic Party is the one who proposed this law, most Democratic senators supported the medical device tax law. Obviously, this law will make the implementation of Affordable Care Act become more easier. The Affordable Care Act will be successfully only when government has enough money. Moreover, although many medical device manufacturers asserted that this tax is harmful to their businesses, these senators think that this tax just a small sacrifice from bigger revenue. After Affordable Care Act start to work, there are more than 30 million people who will gain health coverage under Affordable Care Act. In other words, all these people will become potential customers to medical device industry. Therefore, the increase revenue from these potential customers will offset the tax cost 1. Furthermore, we should consider the influence of this tax policy on other industries except medical device industry. Affordable Care Act is a very complicated project and influential to many industries. There are also some tax regulation to industries such as hospitals and health insurance companies. Democratic Party have to consider that the repeal of medical device tax may trigger the serial effects because the other industries such as insurance companies and hospital will try to repeal the tax they have to pay as well.2 Furthermore, medical device industry is one of the most profitable industry in United States. Passing this law not only make the Obamacare operate easier but also help U.S. government reduce the financial deficit. "Fracturing on anything related to the Affordable Care Act is one of the most moronic moves Democrats could make," said a Senate Democratic aide, who requested anonymity to speak candidly. "Repealing the medical device tax is playing into House Republicans' pathological obsession with dismantling the law at any cost. This is a more than $30 billion handout to one of the most profitable…
