Answer to Question 1

Automobile producers and buyers make their decisions in pursuit of their own self-interest but achieving new emission standards requires more costly engines and emission control technologies, which in turn means the cost of producing automobiles and their prices will rise. President Obama's decision to impose the new regulations is intended to serve the social interest, so all the costs associated with the new emissions standard regulation arise from this decision made in the social interest.

Answer to Question 2

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
