“When people live in the full light of an open society, paying their taxes, abiding by the rules, that makes not only our country safer and more secure because people are not relegated to living in the shadows and not creating underground economies, it also is better for wages because the fact that people are working on the books in the open means that there's greater demand for labor and you don't have this submarket.” PeopleMeanBookCountryFactsLightEconomyGreaterDemandTaxesCreatingShadowLaborOur CountrySecureWagesAbiding Author:Martin O'Malley

“Active management strategies demand uninstitutional behavior from institutions, creating a paradox that few can unravel.

“We grow by letting the customer tell us. So when the customer tells us that they're frustrated, that they just got their catalogue and we're already out of a product they wanted, then it tells me that we're not making enough. We let the customer tell us instead of creating an artificial demand for our products. Any time you're making products that people don't need, you're at the mercy of the economy, you're at the mercy of whatever is going on.

“The management of creativity is more intimate. By that I mean that it deals with an individual's personal, psychological landscape. It deals with the way you create relationships. It deals with creating an atmosphere and environment that support the creative process. As a result, it is a management skill set that is inherently psychological and that encourages desired outcomes rather than demands those outcomes.” WayMeanIndividualProcessResultsDealsCreativitySupportCreativeEnvironmentSkillsDemandCreatingManagementPsychologicalLandscapeAtmosphereIntimateOutcomesCreative ProcessManagement Skills Author:John Kao
“I think it's more likely that we can make positive changes happen on environment and military issues if states begin to secede. I don't think it's question of personal lifestyle preference or some sort of parochial identification with your state. I think it's an absolute moral demand that something be done to create a government with some power that can be controlled by the residents of its territory. That was supposedly the idea in creating the United States, but it doesn't exist now and we have to make it exist even if it's piece by piece, part of the United States at a time.” IfsThinkingIdeasStatesDoneGovernmentHappensUnitedMoralUnited StatesIssuesEnvironmentPiecesMilitaryDemandCreatingAbsolutesLifestyleControlledTerritoryPersonal LifePreferenceIdentificationResidentsPositive Change Author:David Swanson
