“The most important domestic challenge facing the U.S. at the close of the twentieth century is the re-creation of fatherhood as avital social role for men. At stake is nothing less than the success of the American experiment. For unless we reverse the trend of fatherlessness, no other set of accomplishments--not economic growth or prison construction or welfare reform or better schools--will succeed in arresting the decline of child well-being and the spread of male violence. To tolerate the trend of fatherlessness is to accept the inevitability of continued social recession.” MenWellsChildrenImportantSchoolSocialGrowthChallengesAcceptingRolesViolenceEconomicCenturyCreationSucceedPrisonMalesSpreadExperimentsReformWell BeingWelfareAccomplishmentTrendsStakesConstructionDeclineTolerateReverseFatherhoodTwentieth CenturyEconomic GrowthRecessionsInevitabilityArrestingWelfare ReformSocial RolesFatherlessness Author:David Blankenhorn
“We recognize that our progress as a species does not have to be defined in terms of wealth or material and physical growth any more than our progress as individuals has to be defined in terms of physical growth.

It is simple minded to define our well being in material terms, when that well-being has an aesthetic dimension, and intellectual dimension, a moral dimension.” WellsDoeSoulCharacterBodyLastsIndividualGrowsGrowthTermWealthChanceSimpleMoralProgressMaterialsLimitsIntellectualBreathsSpeciesEnvironmentalDefinedWell BeingDimensionsAestheticSustainability Author:Wes Jackson

“The larger the government, the more our livings standards are reduced. We are fortunate as a civilization that the progress of free enterprise generally outpaces the regress of government growth, for, if that were not the case, we would be poorer each year - not just in relative terms, but absolutely poorer too.
