In the IS-LM model, the decrease in government spending reduces income as in the Keynesian-cross model, but the reduction in income also reduces the demand for money, which in turn reduces the interest rate for a given money supply.

Even though that was not the case, the employer in this case is a man and has a bias against women, so he decides to use that as an excuse so his sexism will never be caught. As in a global perspective some parts in the world like Afghanistan women do not have the right to vote and their place in society is to take care of the family.

Jackie is the victim of sexual harassment in the case of Sing & Dance. She was forced to experience advances that were verbal in nature and continued even after she had requested that they stop.

Her manager, Curtis, had contacts within the industry and also was the direct supervisor for Jackie’s advancement opportunities.
