“Since man does not create physical matter, those who handle material objects in the production process are not producers in that sense. Economic benefits result from the transformation of matter in form, location, or availability (intellectually or temporally). It is these transformations that create economic benefits valued by consumers, and whoever arranges such transformations contributes to the value of things, whether his hands actually come into contact with physical objects or not.” MenDoeMatterHandsFormValuesProcessResultsEconomicObjectsMaterialsBenefitsTransformationProductionsHandleContactProducersConsumersLocationAvailability Author:Thomas Sowell
“In the last few decades entire new categories of waste have come to plague and menace the American scene. Pollution is growing at a rapid rate. Pollution destroys beauty and menaces health. It cuts down on efficiency, reduces property values and raises taxes. Almost all these wastes and pollutions are the result of activities carried on for the benefit of man. A prime national goal must be an environment that is pleasing to the senses and healthy to live in. Our Government is already doing much in this field. We have made significant progress. But more must be done.” MenMadeDoneGovernmentLastsValuesGoalResultsBeautyEnvironmentCuttingGrowingProgressFieldsHealthySceneActivityTaxesWasteBenefitsRaisesPropertyRateDecadesSensesSignificantPrimeCategoriesPollutionEfficiencyPlagueRapidsMenacePollution Control Author:Lyndon B.

“Organized religion has too often followed the road of other people's institutions. It has made adjustments, compromises, and surrenders to a materialistic civilization for the benefit of material security in spite of occasional twinges of conscience and moral protests. The result has been that today much of organized religion is materialistically solvent but spiritually bankrupt.” PeopleHas BeensMadeTodayReligionResultsMoralSecurityMaterialsCivilizationBenefitsConscienceInstitutionsSurrenderCompromiseOrganizedSpiteProtestOccasionalAdjustmentMaterialisticOrganized Religion Author:Saul Alinsky

“Our devotional life with God is more like the planting of a garden. When we arise from sowing into the secret place, we will not usually be able to point to immediate results or benefits.

“Wars results in immediate deaths and destruction, but the environmental consequences can last hundreds, often thousands of years. And it is not just war itself that undermines our life support system, but also the research and development, military exercises and general preparations for battle that are carried out on a daily basis in most parts of the world. The majority of this pre-war activity takes place without the benefit of civilian scrutiny and therefore we are unaware of some of what is being done to our environment in the name of 'security.” WorldYearsWarDoneLastsNamesResultsSupportEnvironmentOur LivesSecurityMilitaryDevelopmentExerciseBattleActivityBenefitsResearchConsequenceDestructionBasesMajorityEnvironmentalPreparationCiviliansOur EnvironmentScrutinyBeing DoneResearch And DevelopmentSupport SystemsJust War Book:Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War Source: Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War

“That we can come here today and in the presence of thousands and tens of thousands of the survivors of the gallant army of Northern Virginia and their descendants, establish such an enduring monument by their hospitable welcome and acclaim, is conclusive proof of the uniting of the sections, and a universal confession that all that was done was well done, that the battle had to be fought, that the sections had to be tried, but that in the end, the result has inured to the common benefit of all.” WellsEndsDoneTodayResultsCommonBattleBenefitsUniversalArmyEndureProofWelcomeSurvivorConfessionSectionsMonumentVirginiaDescendantsWell DoneUnitingGallantAcclaim Author:William Howard Taft
“Vanity is as advantageous to a government as pride is dangerous. To be convinced of this we need only represent, on the one hand,the numberless benefits which result from vanity, as industry, the arts, fashions, politeness, and taste; and on the other, the infinite evils which spring from the pride of certain nations, a laziness, poverty, a total neglect of everything.” NeedsArtHandsGovernmentCertainEvilNationsResultsPovertyFashionDangerousPrideIndustryTasteBenefitsSpringInfiniteConvincedVanityNeglectLazinessPoliteness Author:Baron de Montesquieu
“Individual versus group selection results in a mix of altruism and selfishness, of virtue and sin, among the members of a society. If one colony member devotes its life to service over marriage, the individual is of benefit to the society, even though it does not have personal offspring. A soldier going into battle will benefit his country, but he runs a higher risk of death than one who does not. An altruist benefits the group, but a layabout or coward who saves his own energy and reduces his bodily risk passes the resulting social cost to others.” IfsDoeCountryRunningIndividualEnergySocialSinResultsVirtueRiskGroupsHigherBattleCostMembersBenefitsSoldierSelfishnessCowardAltruismVersusSelectionOffspringColony Author:E.

“Perhaps if there were more of that intense distress for souls that leads to tears, we should more frequently see the results we desire.
