This study looks at factors affecting the decision of early retirement for Egyptian government sector employees. The empirical analysis is based on 2005 nationally representative sample of government sector workers. Among the findings of this study are: women are more likely to retire earlier than men; good health status is associated with longer stay on the job; the level of education is not a determining factor for women, but it is for men; men plan to work after their early retirement; the presence of the working wife has a positive effect on her husband to retire early, yet a working husband discourages his wife from retiring early. Policy implications discussed timing of the announcement of the plans; the potential outcome of excessive payouts, as well as the need for the governmen...

In March 2006, Democrat Hinda Miller lost the mayor's race to Progressive Bob Kiss in the city's first demonstration of "instant runoff voting." According to election officials, IRV went off without a hitch - more than 99 percent of the ballots cast were deemed valid - and for a time state lawmakers debated whether to adopt IRV for statewide races. But Miller, who's also a state senator, was sharply critical of the procedure. During the campaign, her other major opponent. Republican Kevin Curley, told his supporters that Kiss would be his "second choice" for mayor. Curley's nudge may have pushed Kiss over the top.
I, as a candidate, couldn't figure out how to game this system," Miller explained at the time, ruffling feathers for suggesting that candidates could "game," or cheat, the sy...

If someone is determined to embrace suicide, there's not much someone else can do about it. If a gun isn't handy, a knife will be, or a bottle of sleeping pills, or even a video of a speech by Joe Biden. If you're Barack Obama in a vengeful mood, you just shove a health care "reform" that nobody wants at reluctant congressmen in your party. It's just as effective and just as quick.
Mr. Obama is loath to say the word "reconciliation," because he knows "reconciliation" is this season's synonym for suicide. So he warns of the danger of flip-floppery. His health care "reform" passed the House by only five votes, and deaths and resignations have reduced the margin. There's no margin left for flip-floppery. That's the message the president's desperate lobbyists are taking to Capitol Hill. He ...
