“The IRS says it wants to make sure companies can give their employees a choice between a new cash balance plan and the traditional defined benefit plan. The real question here is whether companies should be required to give their workers that choice.” WantGivingShouldRealChoicesCompanyPlansBalanceBenefitsWorkersTraditionalDefinedEmployeeCashIrsReal Questions Author:Bernie Sanders

“There are but three political-economic roads from which we can choose... We could take the first course and further exacerbate the already concentrated ownership of productive capital in the American economy. Or we could join the rest of the world by taking the second path, that of nationalization. Or we can take the third road, establishing policies to diffuse capital ownership broadly, so that many individuals, particularly workers, can participate as owners of industrial capital. The choice is ours.” WorldFirstsPoliticalChoicesThreeCoursesPoliticsIndividualEconomyPathEconomicPolicyThirdsWorkersLiberalismProductiveOwnersOwnershipAmerican Economy Author:Russell B. Long
“Governments don't want a population capable of critical thinking, they want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation.You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own, and control the corporations. They've long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear.” PeopleThinkingWantLongImportantStatesEnoughBigsGovernmentRunningChoicesHouseCitiesCompanySituationAcceptingLandMediaInformationJudgingNewsCapableSmartMachinesPaidWorkersCongressPopulationCriticalDumbCorporationsPocketsOwnersHallsSenateCritical ThinkingObedientCity Hall Author:George Carlin
“When the psychiatrist approves of a person's actions, he judges that person to have acted with "free choice"; when he disapproves,he judges him to have acted without "free choice." It is small wonder that people find "free choice" a confusing idea: "free choice" appears to refer to what the person being judged (often called the "patient") does, whereas it is actually what the person making the judgment (often a psychiatrist or other mental health worker) thinks.” PeopleThinkingPersonsDoeIdeasActionChoicesWonderJudgingJudgmentMental HealthWorkersPatientJudgedConfusingPsychiatristFree ChoiceBeing JudgedHealth Workers Author:Thomas Szasz
“Women have to make a living. We don't live in a wealthy world where we even have a choice. We're losing our choice of whether or not we need to work. If we want to work, we obviously should work and have that choice, but a lot of women can't even get to the word "want." They need to work. And it's great to see women who needed to work and found a way to become a firefighter or a steel worker. That, to me, is very exciting.” IfsWorldWayWantNeedsShouldChoicesFoundNeededLosingExcitingWorkersWealthySteelOur ChoicesFirefighter Author:Marlo Thomas
