The US Salary Inflation Calculator is a tool that calculates the needed salary to combat inflation based on an expected inflation rate and initial salary amount. It is a simple percent increase type formula: (Expected US Inflation Rate) x (Current Salary) + (Current Salary) = Salary to Keep Up to Inflation.
Libel is a defamatory statement recorded in writing or some other permanent form. A libel may also be recorded by radio or television in some circumstances. Unlike other states, Florida does not permit presumed damages in libel cases; some evidence of actual injury must be established. Slander is spoken defamation. 1  This is distinguishable from libel in that the defamation is in less permanent and less physical form. Where the original defamation may be libel, any repetition, even if oral, is also libel. However, the written repetition of a slander will be characterized as libel.
Defamation law in the United States is much less plaintiff-friendly than its counterparts in European and the Commonwealth countries. A comprehensive discussion of what is and is not libel or slander under United States law is difficult, as the definition differs between different states and is further affected by federal law. Some states codify what constitutes slander and libel together, merging the concepts into a single defamation law.
