ANATOMY OF A BAILOUT
"THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR INTEGRITY, GOOD JUDGMENT, AND A TRUE SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY ON THE PART OF THE FINANCIAL DECISIONMAKERS AT EVERY LEVEL, IN BOTH THE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTORS." |
DOING AWAY WITH THE "ONLY ONE-FOURTH OF ONE PERCENT" SOLUTION
"PSYCHIATRISTS ENGAGE IN MANY PHONY PRACTICES BUT NONE PHONIER THAN THE INSANITY DEFENSE." |
UNIONS RARELY MISS THEIR PAYDAY
". . . THE AVERAGE GOVERNMENT WORKER NOW EARNS MORE THAN THE AVERAGE PRIVATE-SECTOR WORKER. THIS RELATIONSHIP IS OCCURRING DURING A PERIOD IN WHICH ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT ARE FACING UNPRECEDENTED BUDGET DEFICITS." |
WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO OUR CITIZENS-IN-TRAINING?
STUDENTS AREN'T CONNECTED TO THE LARGER PURPOSES & ASPIRATIONS OF AMER DEMOCRACY; VOTER TURNOUT IS LOW; FEELINGS THAT POLITICAL PARTICIPATION WILL NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE ARE HIGH; THERE IS A PROFOUND SENSE OF CYNICISM & LACK OF TRUST IN POLITICAL PROCESS. |
