“Well, we have the leverage in the sense that we supply all the wherewithal...or a major part of the wherewithal to finance or to pay for everything Israel does. We don't have any leverage in the sense that Israel controls the Senate. The Senate is at least...a subservient, in my opinion, much too much. We should be more concerned about the United States' interest, rather than doing the bidding of Israel. This is a most unusual development.” ShouldWellsDoeStatesInterestUnitedPayOpinionUnited StatesToo MuchDevelopmentMajorsConcernedJewIsraelFinanceUnusualSenateBiddingSubservient Author:J.

“Only yesterday mankind lived in fear of the scourges of smallpox, cholera and plague that once swept nations before them. Now our major concern is no longer with the disease organisms that once were omnipresent; sanitation, better living conditions, and new drugs have given us a high degree of control over infectious disease. Today we are concerned with a different kind of hazard that lurks in our environment-a hazard we ourselves have introduced into our world as our modern way of life has evolved.” WorldWayKindDifferentTodayGivenNationsEnvironmentModernConditionsMankindDrugDiseaseDegreesMajorsConcernConcernedYesterdayOur WorldDifferent KindsOrganismsPlagueOur EnvironmentHazardsScourgeCholeraSanitationSmallpoxInfectious DiseasesLiving Conditions Book:Silent Spring Source: Silent Spring

“America's universities are filled with economically ignorant haters of the free market, so university campuses have become major forums for union denunciations of such companies as Nike, Wal-mart, and others. Faculty and students claim to be concerned about 'social justice,' but they are simply being used as dupes by unions who are not at all concerned with justice of any sort. Rather, their main concern is increasing the coffers of union treasuries by driving non-union competitors from the market.” AmericaUsedSocialJusticeCompanyStudentsMajorsConcernConcernedClaimsSocial JusticeFilledUnionsUniversityDrivingIgnorantFacultyCompetitorsFree MarketCampusTreasuryForumsNikeDupes Author:Thomas DiLorenzo
“There's also the issue of tech titans throwing their weight around in Washington and lobbying.

“Another point is that ultimately, as far as the budget is concerned, of major importance is who offers more money during the bidding that must be organized as a part of the privatization process. In this sense, we cannot discriminate against any market participants, not one of them, but this is not relevant at the moment, as the Government has decided to postpone the privatization of Bashneft.” MomentsGovernmentProcessOffersMajorsConcernedDecidedImportanceBudgetsOrganizedRelevantMore MoneyParticipantsBiddingPrivatization Author:Vladimir Putin
