Roderick Cardwell owns Trafficworld, which sells traffic lights (a sale of goods, according to the court) throughout the United States. Trafficworld’s Massachusetts office sold traffic lights to Mary Lou Lupovitch, a Connecticut resident, for $1250. There was no agreement as to risk of loss. Trafficworld gave the traffic lights to a carrier in Massachusetts who delivered the light to Lupovitch in Connecticut. The state of Connecticut brought an action against Cardwell in a Connecticut state court, charging in part a violation of a state statute that prohibited the sale of traffic lights to private owners. Cardwell contended in part that the statute did not apply because the sale to Lupovitch involved a shipment contract that was formed outside the state. Is Cardwell correct? How will the court rule? Why?

Bowling Alone was written by Dr. Putnam in an attempt to explain the reduction in civic engagement in the United States. Part of his argument is civic engagement has decreased due to the absence of social capital.

Respond to the following statement: “Civic engagement among community members is essential for public policy decision making and the creation of social capital is mandatory. To assure adequate public policy decisions, the individual must participate, but without regard to personal gain either in monetary gain or personal aggrandizement. All should be for the good of the community. As Mr. Spock stated in Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan, ‘The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one.’ This must be true for all situations and all decisions.”
