Joe BidenYou know all what I'm about to, what I've said, and you know what I've done, and you know what we're doing, and you know -- I know what you're doing.
Milton FriedmanThe unions might be good for the people who are in the unions but it doesn't do a thing for the people who are unemployed. Because the union keeps down the number of jobs, it doesn't do a thing for them.
John Kenneth GalbraithThe Federal Reserve System is treated by nearly all economists with reverence. On no matter is their instruction of the young in the subtlety and benignity of established institutions more admiring-or, in broad effect, more successful. Corporations are flawed by an instinct for monopoly. Trade unions interfere with the market, urge trade restrictions, resist new technology and thus obstruct progress, and they can fall victim to extortionists and racketeers. The regulatory agencies of the government are notably imperfect instruments of economic guidance. The Federal Reserve System is not totally above criticism. It makes many mistakes but these are always interesting errors of judgment. they are examined not critically but respectfully to discover why men of insight went wrong. That for such error anyone should be sacked or even seriously rebuked is, for economists, nearly unthinkable. This approval goes back to the origins and can be highly negligent of circumstance. The most widely read account of the genesis of the System tells glowingly of its birth in the closing weeks of 1913 when the Federal Reserve Act was passed by Congress and signed by President Wilson.
Albert S. Herlong, Jr.[Communist Goals for America:]\\
- Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”\\
- Control schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda.\\
- Soften curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put party line in textbooks.
Control student newspapers.\\
- Infiltrate churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion (i.e. “social justice,” “liberation theology”).\\
- Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”\\
- Discredit American culture.\\
- Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and divorce.\\
- Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.\\
Jimmy HoffaDon't let any man into your cab, your home, or your heart, unless he's a friend of labor.
Ben JohnsonI have never met a more dedicated bunch of people than I did working in the union, at every level. The work is difficult and demanding, and very few people would do it if they didn’t believe in its righteousness. However, the conviction that you know what’s best insulates you against reflecting morally on your own actions and it teaches you to begin assessing morality in terms of either the ends justifying the means, or even worse, of mere good intention justifying those means.
Patrick SemmonsUnion bosses will continue to use workers’ dues money as a slush fund to support controversial causes and organizations as long as union officials are empowered to order a worker fired simply for refusing to pay money to the union.
Texas v. WhiteNot only, therefore, can there be no loss of separate and independent autonomy to the states, through their union under the Constitution, but it may be not unreasonably said that the preservation of the states, and the maintenance of their governments, are as much within the design and care of the Constitution as the preservation of the Union and the maintenance of the national government. The Constitution, in all its provisions, looks to an indestructible Union, composed of indestructible states.
Malcolm WallopToday government touches everything in America and harms almost everything it touches. Federal, state, and local governments together spend 42 out of every 100 dollars we earn. Those who do the taxing and spending have long since ceased to work for the people as a whole. Rather, they work for themselves and for their clients—the education industry, the welfare culture, public-employee unions, etc..
