“It looks like bribery. I mean,there is every appearance that Hillary Clinton was bribed to grease the sale of, what, 20 percent of America's uranium production to Russia, and then it was covered up by lying about a meeting with her home with the principals, and by erasing e-mails. And I presume we might know for sure whether there was or was not bribery if she hadn't wiped out you know, out thousands of e-mails.” IfsKnowsLooksMeanHomeMightAmericaLyingPercentMeetingsClintonProductionsAppearanceRussiaCoveredMailPrincipalGreaseBriberyUraniumCovered Up Author:Jedediah Bila

“Thanksgiving is a typically American holiday. In spite of its religious form (giving thanks to God for a good harvest), its essential, secular meaning is a celebration of successful production. It is a producers’ holiday. The lavish meal is a symbol of the fact that abundant consumption is the result and reward of production. Abundance is (or was and ought to be) America’s pride-just as it is the pride of American parents that their children need never know starvation.” KnowsNeedsGivingChildrenFactsAmericaFormParentReligiousResultsSuccessfulPrideOughtEssentialsRewardsProductionsProducersThanksSymbolsMealsAbundanceSpiteHolidayCelebrationConsumptionSecularHarvestStarvation Author:Ayn Rand
“In general, I feel, or I have come to feel, that the richest writing comes not from the people who dedicate themselves to writing alone. I know this is contradicted again and again but I continue to feel it. They don't, of course, write as much, or as fast, but I think it is riper and more satisfying when it does come. One of the difficulties of writing or doing any kind of creative work in America seems to me to be that we put such stress on production and material results. We put a time pressure and a mass pressure on creative work which are meaningless and infantile in that field.” PeopleThinkingKnowsFeelsWritingKindDoeSeemsAmericaCoursesResultsCreativeFieldsMaterialsMassDifficultyStressPressureProductionsSatisfyingMeaninglessAgain And AgainCreative WorkInfantileDifficulty Of Writing Author:Anne Morrow Lindbergh

“As to the latter point - that by having a child in America you are somehow starving a child in Bangladesh - remember that agricultural economics is not a zero-sum game. Farmers want to make a living, so as demand increases, so does production. Not only that, but agricultural productivity has increased so rapidly that in some countries the government pays farmers not to plant crops in an effort to keep food prices from dropping.” WantChildrenDoeCountryGovernmentAmericaRememberGamesEffortPayDemandEconomicsIncreasePlantProductionsProductivityLatterZeroFarmersStarvingDroppingCropsBangladeshZero Sum Game Author:J.
