“We do not hear the term compassionate applied to business executives or entrepreneurs, certainly not when they are engaged in their normal work. Yet in terms of results in the measurable form of jobs created, lives enriched, communities built, living standards raised, and poverty healed, a handful of capitalists has done infinitely more for mankind than all the self-serving politicians, academics, social workers, and religionists who march under the banner of compassion.” SelfDoneJobsFormSocialTermCommunityResultsCompassionPovertyMankindPoliticianNormalStandardsBuiltEntrepreneurRaisedWorkersEngagedExecutivesMarchServingCompassionateCapitalistHandfulHealedBannerSocial WorkerSelf Serving Author:Nathaniel Branden
“A talented executive would be somebody who knows how to surround themselves with a lot of people that will make him look good.

“What reason is there for believing that a high death rate, in itself, is undesirable? To my knowledge none whatever. The plain fact is that, if it be suitably selective, it is extremely salubrious.

“People at civil-liberties organizations say it's a sea change, and that it's very clear judges have begun to question more critically assertions made by the executive. Even though it seems so obvious now, it is extraordinary in the context of the last decade, because courts had simply said they were not the best branch to adjudicate these claims - which is completely wrong, because they are the only nonpolitical branch. They are the branch that is specifically charged with deciding issues that cannot be impartially decided by politicians.” PeopleMadeSaidSeemsLastsLibertyIssuesClearSeaJudgingPoliticianDecidedOrganizationClaimsCourtExtraordinaryObviousDecadesBranchesExecutivesAssertionCivil LibertiesSea ChangeSimply Said Author:Edward Snowden
