“The Jews might have had Uganda, Madagascar, and other places for the establishment of a Jewish Fatherland, but they wanted absolutely nothing except Palestine, not because the Dead Sea water by evaporation can produce five trillion dollars of metaloids and powdered metals; not because the sub-soil of Palestine contains twenty times more petroleum than all the combined reserves of the two Americas; but because Palestine is the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa, because Palestine constitutes the veritable center of world political power, the strategic center for world control.” WorldTwoMightWantedAmericaPoliticalWaterPowerFiveSeaProduceEuropeTwentiesDollarsJewSoilMetalsEstablishmentReservesAsiaPalestineStrategicAbsolutely NothingPolitical PowerCrossroadsZionistFatherlandPetroleumUgandaHoly LandSea WaterMadagascarEvaporation Author:Nahum Goldmann

“We tell the for-profit sector, 'Spend, spend, spend on advertising until the last dollar no longer produces a penny of value,' but we don't like to see our donations spent on advertising in charity. Our attitude is, 'Well look, if you can get the advertising donated (at four o'clock in the morning) I'm okay with that, but I don't want my donation spent on advertising, I want it to go to the needy,' as if the money invested in advertising could not bring in dramatically greater sums of money to serve the needy.” IfsWantWellsLooksLastsValuesAttitudeMorningGreaterFourProduceOkayDollarsCharityProfitAdvertisingClockPenniesNeedyDonation Author:Dan Pallotta

“Those who would administer [charity] wisely must, indeed, be wise, for one of the serious obstacles to the improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity. It were better for mankind that the millions of the rich were thrown into the sea than spent to encourage the slothful, the drunken, the unworthy. Of every thousand dollars spent in so-called charity today, it is probable that nine hundred and fifty dollars is unwisely spent - so spent, indeed, as to produce the very evils which it hopes to mitigate or cure.” TodayEvilRaceMillionsRichWiseSeaMankindProduceSeriousThousandHundredDollarsCharityObstaclesImprovementNineCuresFiftyThrownBeing WiseUnworthy Author:Andrew Carnegie

“Environmentally, business in America in 1970 was very similar to business in China today. Even if a CEO wanted to be a responsible corporate citizen, he (and they were all "he's" then) simply couldn't invest a billion dollars in pollution controls to produce a product that was indistinguishable from those of his competitors. His products would be priced out of the market. Passing laws that created a clean, level playing field for whole industries had to be a core focus of the 1970s.” IfsWholeWould BeTodayWantedAmericaLawLevelsFocusFieldsProduceProductsIndustryCitizensResponsibleDollarsCleanChinaBillionsCorePassingPassingsCorporatePollutionCeoCompetitorsPlaying FieldsLevel Playing FieldPollution ControlPassing Laws Author:Denis Hayes

“We are in tough economic times right now, and the first thing we have to do is look at how we're spending the dollars that we have, and at what kind of return on investment we're getting. Because I think it will show that spending more money without fixing the fundamental flaws in the system won't produce anything different in terms of results.
