“So the Bush-Obama administration has taken a fiscal stance diametrically opposed to that of the patron saint of free enterprise. While escalating war in Afghanistan and maintaining over 850 military bases around the world, the administration has run up the national debt that Smith decried. By shifting the tax burden off property and off rent-seeking monopolies - above all, off the financial sector - this policy has raised America's cost of living and doing business, thereby undercutting its competitive power and running up larger and larger foreign debt.” WorldWarRunningAmericaTakenMilitaryPolicyCostTaxesBasesPropertyRaisedFinancialSaintSeekingBurdenDebtAround The WorldAdministrationEnterpriseAfghanistanMaintainingMonopolyShiftingStanceAnd OffFree EnterprisePatronNational DebtCost Of LivingEscalatingTax BurdenMilitary Bases Author:Michael Hudson
“I was appalled to find that the mathematical notation on which I had been raised failed to fill the needs of the courses I was assigned, and I began work on extensions to notation that might serve. In particular, I adopted the matrix algebra used in my thesis work, the systematic use of matrices and higher-dimensional arrays (almost) learned in a course in Tensor Analysis rashly taken in my third year at Queen's, and (eventually) the notion of Operators in the sense introduced by Heaviside in his treatment of Maxwell's equations.” NeedsYearsUseMightUsedCoursesTakenParticularHigherThirdsRaisedNotionMathematicalQueensAnalysisTreatmentExtensionsEquationsAdoptedSystematicAlgebraThesisOperatorsMaxwell Author:Kenneth E.

“The men who are messing up their lives, their families, and their world in their quest to feel man enough are not exercising truemasculinity, but a grotesque exaggeration of what they think a man is. When we see men overdoing their masculinity, we can assume that they haven't been raised by men, that they have taken cultural stereotypes literally, and that they are scared they aren't being manly enough.” ThinkingMenWorldFeelsEnoughTakenHavensHe ManExerciseAssumingRaisedScaredQuestsStereotypeMasculinityExaggerationManlyGrotesqueMessing Up Author:Frank Pittman

“One of my defining beliefs is that Jesus Christ has taken all of my guilt before God, and that he has been raised from the dead.

“The man who has successfully solved the problem of his relations with the two worlds of data and symbols is a man who has no beliefs. With regard to the problems of practical life he entertains a series of working hypotheses, which serve his purposes, but are taken no more seriously than any other kind of tool or instrument. In other words, symbols should never be raised to the rank of dogmas, nor should any system be regarded as more than a provisional convenience.” MenWorldShouldKindTwoProblemPurposeBeliefTakenHe ManToolsRelationRegardInstrumentsSeriesRaisedPracticalsSymbolsDataDogmaHypothesisConvenienceTwo WorldsPractical Life Author:Aldous Huxley
