Entities
My group for Economics was given 96 acres for potential entities for Matildaville and we chose The Matildaville Community College, The Matildaville Sluggers, and The Youth Center and Skateboard Park because these entities include beneficial aspects for the community within the high income individuals along with the middle class families. The Matildaville Community College will not only provide education amongst students and adults but also provide job opportunities for teachers, administration, and faculty. A community college will ultimately result into the community having a variety of well-trained labor force. Students and/or adults will have the opportunity of being educated, which is the basis of the labor force itself. Because there will be a variety of subjects and units provided, it will truly increase one’s human capital. The two year college degrees provided in nursing, auto mechanics, and computer technology will generate a great amount of job opportunities of the citizens of Matildaville. The community college itself is said to attract new businesses to Matildaville, along with helping the existing businesses expand their labor pool. Although, building a community college does have its costs. Because constructing a college is quite expensive, it’ll require initial cash outlays for buildings, equipment, and staffing. The city of Matildaville public debt will increase with issuance of bonds as well. A community college itself has its expenses, but because education is the basis of life, it is quite essential to those who are willing to achieve their goals in the work force to overall sustain a balance income in the needs of surviving.
A promise made by the Mayor of Matildaville in bringing a professional baseball team to the community for we have plans on constructing this 18 acre stadium for the luxury and pride it will bring forth. Unlike other businesses, a baseball stadium will create job opportunities for skilled citizens, along with revenue

Politicians often push for stadiums and other favors to teams despite not having support from neighborhoods and general opposition across the whole city, especially where these high dollar stadiums would be built.…

    Since 2000, twelve Major League teams have built new stadiums. The two New York Teams, the Yankees and the Mets, will both open brand new parks in the spring of 2009. Five teams have plans in progress to have completed their new fields by 2012, which will leave the Boston Red Sox’s Fenway Park, built in 1912, the oldest baseball stadium in the country (Grand Slam Enterprises). The new Yankee Stadium is the most expensive one in America, costing approximately $1.6 billion (M.L.B. Advanced Media, “Yankees Unveil 2009 Schedule”). The opening of two baseball stadiums, as well as the Jets and Giants new stadium, all in the same state and the same season has prices flying through the roof for local ticket holders, and the citizens of the state concerned about what their taxes are going towards since all the stadiums received some aid. The Yankees received over $200 million from the city and the state, which, even though only covers a fraction of the cost, the money still comes from the taxpaying citizens (E.S.P.N.).…

    “It’s just extremely disappointing and aggravating to have paid all that money and have nothing to show for it other than debt.” proclaimed Michelle Polyakov, an English graduate from Drake University. Polyakov obviously feels that college is not worth the cost and that all someone has to show for the education is debt. College has been deemed, by some, that it is not worth the cost because of the financial loss, the future job security, and the need for “blue collar” jobs. Finances, job security, and the need for manual laborers are all major factors in the debate of college and its cost. The reason being is because not all people are meant to go to college, or their situation just isn’t ideal. College is a privilege, and not every job requires you to have a higher form of learning, but most do. By viewing the debt of a student after graduation, the job security of graduates, and the need for manual laborers, one can infer that college is not worth the cost.…

Community involvement can be whatever the school board deems necessary when dealing with the needs of its citizens. This could be anything from charity drives to helping feed the…
