The editorial argues that buying and selling kidneys should be legalized: "with proper regulation, a kidney market would be a big improvement over the current sorry state of affairs. sellers could be checked for disease and drug use, and cared for after would get better kidneys, faster. both sellers and buyers would do better than in the illegal market, where much of the money goes to middlemen." do you agree with the argument? should the government treat kidneys like other goods and allow the market to determine price?

The business cycle is the periodic but irregular up-and-down movement in economic activity, measured by fluctuations in real gross domestic product (gdp) and other macroeconomic variables. a business cycle is typically characterized by four phases—recession, recovery, growth, and decline—that repeat themselves over time. economists note, however, that complete business cycles vary in length. the duration of business cycles can be anywhere from about two to twelve years, with most cycles averaging six years in length. some business analysts use the business cycle model and terminology to study and explain fluctuations in business inventory and other individual elements of corporate operations. but the term "business cycle" is still primarily associated with larger (industry-wide, regional, national, or even international) business trends.
