“Business leaders, labor unions, governors, mayors, congressmen and presidents have all complained about a lack of funding for years, but aside from a one-time cash infusion from the stimulus program, nothing much has changed. There is still no consensus on how to solve the problem or where to get the massive amounts of money needed to fix it, just another example of political paralysis in Washington.” YearsStillsProblemPoliticalPresidentLeaderExampleChangedAmountNeededProgramLaborUnionsSolveMassiveOne TimeCashGovernorsConsensusFundingStimulusMayorsCongressmanBusiness LeadersParalysisLabor UnionInfusion Author:Steve Kroft

“We should - we will - welcome people of faith into the political process... It is essential that believers enter the arena. Your involvement in politics helps determine how well our democracy works.

“Everybody complains about pork, but members of Congress keep spending because voters do not throw them out of office for doing so. The rotten system in Congress will change only when the American people change their beliefs about the proper role of government in our society. Too many members of Congress believe they can solve all economic problems, cure all social ills, and bring about worldwide peace and prosperity simply by creating new federal programs. We must reject unlimited government and reassert the constitutional rule of law if we hope to halt the spending orgy.” PeopleIfsBelieveProblemGovernmentLawBeliefSocialRolesEconomicMembersOfficeCreatingProgramCongressProsperitySolveSpendingComplainingCuresOur SocietyRejectsVotersUnlimitedRottenRule Of LawHaltLimited GovernmentPorkEconomic ProblemsRole Of Government Author:Ron Paul

“I have one very basic rule when it comes to "good ideas". A good idea is not an idea that solves a problem cleanly. A good idea is an idea that solves several things at the same time.

“The population explosion is an ecological phenomenon of displacement. Unless we solve that ecological problem of displacing people - to build huge dams, to build motorways, to take away what people need in order to survive - we will keep pumping more and more money into population programs. We will have more and more coercive and violent methods through which women's bodies are treated as experimental grounds for new contraceptives.
