“If there was ever any truth to the trickle-down theory, the only evidence of it I've ever seen was in that period of 1960 to 1965.

“To condemn free-market capitalism because of anything going on today makes no sense. There is no evidence that capitalism exists today. We are deeply involved in an interventionist-planned economy that allows major benefits to accrue to the politically connected of both political parties. One may condemn the fraud and the current system, but it must be called by its proper names Keynesian inflationism, interventionism, and corporatism.” MayTodayPoliticalNamesPartyEconomyInvolvedBenefitsMajorsEvidenceCapitalismCurrentsConnectedFraudPolitical PartiesFree MarketCorporatismFree Market CapitalismInterventionism Book:Pillars of Prosperity: Free Markets, Honest Money, Private Property Source: Pillars of Prosperity: Free Markets, Honest Money, Private Property
“Is there some magic wand they can wave on it and presto! - physics is overturned and carbon dioxide doesn't trap heat anymore? And when we see all these things happening on the Earth itself, what in the hell do they think is causing it?

“A popular feel for scientific endeavors should, if possible, be restored given the needs of the twenty-first century. This does not mean that every literature major should take a watered-down physics course or that a corporate lawyer should stay abreast of quantum mechanics. Rather, it means that an appreciation for the methods of science is a useful asset for a responsible citizenry. What science teaches us, very significantly, is the correlation between factual evidence and general theories, something well illustrated in Einstein's life.” IfsNeedsFeelsShouldFirstsWellsMeanDoeCoursesLiteratureGivenTeachCenturyTheoryMajorsEvidenceTwentiesResponsibleMethodAppreciationLawyerPhysicsCorporateEndeavorAssetsQuantumMechanicQuantum MechanicsFactualCorrelationCitizenry Book:Einstein: His Life and Universe Source: Einstein: His Life and Universe
“There is very good evidence indeed that one of the major reasons for this horror in Syria was a drought that lasted for about five or six years, which meant that huge numbers of people in the end had to leave the land.” PeopleYearsEndsReasonNumbersFiveLandHugeHorrorSixMajorsEvidenceVery GoodSyriaDroughtHuge Numbers Author:Prince Charles
“The absence of fossil evidence for intermediary stages between major transitions in organic design, indeed our inability, even in our imagination, to construct functional intermediates in many cases, has been a persistent and nagging problem for gradualist accounts of evolution.” Has BeensProblemImaginationCasesStageDesignEvolutionMajorsEvidenceAccountsAbsenceTransitionConstructsInabilityFossilsPersistentCreationismNaggingPaleontology Author:Stephen Jay Gould
