More quotes by William Greider
The economy is not governed with the bottom half in mind.
William Greider
If we have wealth, it will be protected from inflation and possibly even enhanced in value.
William Greider
Democracy is held captive, not just by money, but by ideas - the ideas that money buys.
William Greider
A newly elected representative quickly discovers that his job in government-aside from making new laws-is to act as a broker, middleman, special pleader and finagler.
William Greider
Children born today have a fifty-fifty chance of living to 100.
William Greider
The present struggle seems less about abolishing big government than about who gets to use it.
William Greider
Creating a positive future begins in human conversation. The simplest and most powerful investment any member of a community or an organisation can make is to begin with other people as though the answers mattered.
William Greider
If one benefits tangibly from the exploitation of others who are weak, is one morally implicated in their predicament? Or are basic rights of human existence confined to the civilized societies that are wealthy enough to afford them? Our values are defined by what we will tolerate when it is done to others.
William Greider
Money is power in American politics. It always has been.
William Greider
People know elections, like television commercials, are not real.
William Greider
The threat to globalization is not the wasted American dollars but Washington's readiness to mix US commercial interests with its self-appointed role as global protector.
William Greider
The regime of globalization promotes an unfettered marketplace as the dynamic instrument organizing international relations.
William Greider
Folks in the bottom half of the economy are already squeezed hard. They will be bloodied and bankrupt if economic policy inadvertently induces a recession.
William Greider
If everyone has to be a watchdog in order to make government work, then the foxes will also volunteer to serve.
William Greider
Everyone cares for disabled people, right? What they don't care for are genuine civil rights for disabled people. MARY JOHNSON tells the tortuous, enraging story of how Congress enacted a law that instead of protecting against discrimination has turned 'the disabled' into a political punching bag.
William Greider
If you think about it, Washington's overwhelming power in the world is founded on death, the awesome arsenal for killing people.
William Greider
Aside from sending someone to war or to prison, government s ability to make people involuntarily give over their money is its strongest exercise of authority over private citizens and their institutions.
William Greider
The do-it-yourself version of pensions is a flop, as many Americans have painfully learned.
William Greider
Democracy begins in human conversation. A democratic conversation does not require elaborate rules of procedure or utopian notions of perfect consensus. What it does require is a spirit of mutual respect-people conversing critically with one another in an atmosphere of honesty and shared regard.
William Greider
In its present terms, the global system values property over human life.
