“It's traditionally not federal policy to fund state and local salaries. It's done sometimes on a temporary basis or a grant basis. But it's not often done. And the reason is clear, because the federal government can't continue in perpetuity these programs.” SometimesStatesReasonDoneGovernmentClearPolicyProgramBasesLocalsFundGrantsTemporaryFederal GovernmentSalary Author:Jim Talent

“First, what is a revolution? Sometimes I'm inclined to believe that many of our people are using this word "revolution" loosely, without taking careful consideration [of] what this word actually means, and what its historic characteristics are. When you study the historic nature of revolutions, the motive of a revolution, the objective of a revolution, and the result of a revolution, and the methods used in a revolution, you may change words. You may devise another program. You may change your goal and you may change your mind.” PeopleMindFirstsBelieveMayMeanSometimesUsedGoalResultsStudyRevolutionProgramMethodCarefulObjectivesMotiveCharacteristicsConsiderationHistoricChanging Your Mind Author:Malcolm X

“And there was a deeper, less visible effect of the Truman loyalty program. Seeing its consequences for certain individuals and fearing its intrusion on their own lives, many in the government sought protection by strongly asserting their anti-Communism. In the public action that ensued, policy was based not on reality but, instinctively or deliberately, on personal caution...Those who urged a militant and sometimes military anti-Communism were considered sound, trustworthy and personally safe; those who questioned such a course were politically unsafe, possible even slightly disloyal.” SometimesRealityGovernmentActionCertainCoursesIndividualSoundSeeingEffectsMilitaryPolicySafeConsequenceProgramDeeperProtectionLoyaltyCommunismVisibleCautionTrustworthyMilitantIntrusionUnsafeTrumanDisloyalAnti Communism Author:John Kenneth Galbraith
“Entrepreneurs don't really make mistakes, though. We just make decisions that seem right at the time, but which sometimes turn out to have been the wrong path to take. For example, we allowed a buyer to place a huge opening order and later had to take some product back. We didn't have our sell-through programs in place, so in hindsight, it would have been wiser to sell in less product at the outset. The scary thing is you are always making decisions without knowing the future.” Has BeensSometimesSeemsOrderTurnsDecisionBusinessMistakeKnowingPathExampleProductsHugeProgramSellsEntrepreneurScaryOpeningMaking MistakesWiserHindsightMaking DecisionsBuyersScary ThingsWrong PathKnowing The Future Author:Tom Szaky

“Sometimes I wonder how much of these debates have to do with the desire, the legitimate desire, for that history to be recognized.

“I think, the argument sometimes that I've had with folks who are much more interested in sort of race-specific programs is less an argument about what is practically achievable and sometimes maybe more an argument of "We want society to see what's happened, and internalize it, and answer it in demonstrable ways."
