OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION: An agency of the U. S. Department of Labor, established in 1970, that's charged with regulating workplace safety and job-related worker health. It has the authority to imposed health and safety rules and, much to the displeasure of businesses, inspect workplaces to ensure that the rules are followed. Some (second estate) critics argue of their rules are unneeded, overzealous, and counter-productive. Other (third estate) critics say that their rules are neither stringent enough nor adequately enforced.

Lesson 10: Gross Domestic Product | Unit 3: Two Views of GDP
|
Page: 15 of 25
|
The four sectors of the economy buy ALL current economic production and when aggregated give us GDP. The four sectors and their expenditures: - Household: Consumption (C).
- Business: Investment (I).
- Government: Government Expenditures (G).
- Foreign: Net Exports (X-M), the difference between Exports (X) and Imports (I).
Expenditures on GDP: GDP = C + I + G + (X-M)- C, I and G buy not just domestic goods and services, but also imports.
- When we aggregate C, I, G and X we have domestic production plus imports. To measure only domestic production, we subtract imports (M).
