“Establishing a 0.03 percent Wall Street speculation fee, similar to what we had from 1914-1966, would dampen the dangerous level of speculation and gambling on Wall Street, encourage the financial sector to invest in the productive economy and reduce the deficit by more than $350 billion over 10 years.” YearsLevelsEconomyStreetsDangerousWallPercentFinancialBillionsProductiveGamblingSpeculationDeficitFees Author:Bernie Sanders

“If you work in the city long enough, it begins to deal with you on a personal level. Streets reveal their moods. Sometimes the signal light loves you. Sometimes they fight you. When you're hunting for a new building, you hope the city is on your side. You have to use a little bit of thinking--you might call it the process of elimination--and you need a little bit of instinct, but not too much of either. If you think too hard, you overshoot your target and end up at the Pier or the Tenderloin. If you relax and let the city help, the destination does all the work for you.” IfsThinkingNeedsLittlesLongDoeEndsSometimesHardEnoughHelpingUseLightMightFightingBitsProcessSidesLevelsDealsCitiesToo MuchStreetsLove YouBuildingLittle BitInstinctMoodRelaxTargetDestinationHuntingSignalsYour SideEliminationPiers Author:Scott Adams
