"Rather than the current distortive 'slab' approach which sees people pay too much tax and distorts the market, we will ensure that taxpayers pay an amount more proportionate to the value of their property".
There is a distortive affect: the risk is that the person who participates in the drinking ritual might be taking other medications, which could lead to a dangerous combination of psychopharmaca, which is why it is so important that the drink be administered under expert supervision".
So it's unlikely that without the distortive effects of the QE programs we would stay at these levels for much longer.
3) What is potentially more interesting, however, is that it could begin to address one of the more distortive elements of the US tax code, which is the massive subsidy given to home buyers as opposed to renters.
In the end, "Big Shot" is less about one shyster than about the forces that moved him -- about the distortive power, really, of the American Dream.
The purpose of the equalisation is to reduce the distortive channel effects as much as possible by maximising the probability of correct decision being made at the receiver.
And as a citizen, I worry about the distortive effect media consolidation has on the free flow of information in America, and what it means for our democracy.
In this range of substrate concentration, enzyme velocity obeys first order kinetics and the distortive effect of substrate depletion on the estimate of enzyme kinetics can be minimized by using the integrated rate equation for first order kinetics to deduce the initial velocity (Jencks, 1969).
To determine the distortive effect of high simulation temperatures on the behavior of such "room temperature" water models, the structural, dynamic, and thermodynamic properties of the much-used SPC water model are investigated in the temperature range from 300 to 500 K.
We attempted to minimize inaccuracies in our analysis by restricting size measurements to lesions that had well-defined circular or elliptical shapes without obvious distortive changes of the overall contour of the lesion between baseline and follow-up, and by incorporating a sufficiently large margin of error for the measurement.
