“The Great Society went wrong for three major reasons. First, the self-organization the Johnson administration promoted turned out to be not the pooling of family and community resources into shops and businesses, but political pressure for government handouts. Second, the Great Society failed to anticipate the perverse side-effects of handing money out to people who have done nothing to earn it. Third, while the Great Society was showering money on the poor, the Supreme Court was with childlike glee smashing to bits traditional methods of maintaining law and order.” PeopleFirstsSelfReasonDoneGovernmentLawPoliticalOrderThreeBitsSidesCommunityPoorEffectsMajorsResourcesOrganizationThirdsPressureMethodCourtSupremeTraditionalAdministrationShopsSupreme CourtMaintainingJohnsonAnticipateChildlikeLaw And OrderGleeSide EffectsSmashingHandoutsGreat Society Author:David Frum
“And fourthly there is a major shift in public opinion and attitude to accommodate to the post-9/11 mentality and the Bush administration's penchant for secrecy.

“We have to remember that literally within months after Castro's taking office the planes from Florida were beginning to bomb Cuba. Within a year, the Eisenhower administration secretly, but formally, decided to overthrow the government. Then came the Bay of Pigs invasion. The Kennedy administration was furious about the failure of the invasion and immediately launched a major terrorist war and economic war that got harsher through the years. Under these conditions it is kind of amazing that Cuba survived.” YearsKindWarGovernmentRememberEconomicConditionsMonthsOfficeMajorsDecidedTerroristAdministrationPlanesBombsPigsFloridaSurvivedInvasionCubaFuriousThrough The YearsCastroBay Of Pigs Author:Noam Chomsky
